Fitting 35’s with minimal trimming NOW ADDING LONG TRAVEL AND 934 CV’s

.

 

934’s are done too

 

so much badassnesss! Awesome work

 

934s ready for orders?

Those arms are awesome

 

Next week or two for the 934’s

 

Right, I keep forgetting about that. Either way,I prefer more travel haha. It will still turn better than all of my SAS friends.

 

What are you planning for frame side mount, bushings?

 

1” uniballs with custom made cups to fit the subframe kit without using the 1” aluminum spacers like I did on my truck

 

Something looks off on that one. I'll take it off your hands.

 

How much?

 

Not sure yet but way less that RCV’s

 

Please let me know when you know.

 

The CVs are between 120 and 350 bucks each, plus a set of custom axles, plus some machine time for the inner adapter, plus a core, plus boots and such. I expect 1K$ for a set of two.

Are we stuck on the 934 CV due to needing 33 spline axles? Or can 930 CV be used with the appropriate axle? Can the new axle be made stock width, or is this whole thing only for the long travel folks? Thx.

 

I'm not sure: but there will be more than one source for UCA/LCA that work with that axle set up. I'm approaching this problem differently than the OP, but he's got resources to make the axle I wish I could.

 

Hey Guys I"M watching this build like a Hawk , Awesome engineering and welding ,
On the axles please explain where the slip joint ? is ? Maybe I"m wrong but does the axle slip in and out with articulation ?

 

It's not a slip, it's axle plunge, so the axle can go deeper into the CV joint basically. At least that's my understanding. As the suspension drops out, the hub gets further from the diff because the LCA pivot point is below the diff. Vice versa as the suspension compresses.

@81Trekker are you leaving the stock coil bucket? Would there be any benefit to fitting a longer coilover in there?

 

934 flanges have been laser cut because that’s what was decided on. Technically the same could be done with 930’s but the 934’s fit so why not.

The axles can be made for any length... stock or long travel

 

What's the pricing on a kit looking like?

 

Correct, the axle plunges with the CV.

Ditching the coil bucket would have a number of advantages mostly fixing the caster change issue but without doing a full engine cage it becomes a can of worms.
