Will take too long, better off getting new shafts

 

@erok81 i second Downsouth. They are typically pretty good at having parts in stock.

 

Good call. I didn’t even think about just buying the shafts. All of my shocks are from downsouth too.

I think I might wait until I get the JD fab lowers. I really don’t want to redo the tubbing. So fingers crossed the extra push forward helps and I don’t have to redo it.

 

If any of you are on the east coast
I just moved back to kentucky and brought this crap back in my container

so
It’s for sale again

Didn’t even realize this was a thing…

 

Much more stress in ways being another 3.5" wider each side, on top of the 3.5" Marlin kit. Even Marlin said he was worried how everything would hols up.
Also makes it freaking wide as hell, wanna say that 4runner was around 94" wide or somewhere in there

 

It was still cool to see running around.
Seemed to do decent didn’t seem like they took long in RP2 when he’d roll through.

 

Did they finish?

 

Just wait until you see these on our 2.25 kit

 

ohhhhh shiiittttt

 

A solo kit puts you at 95 wide
So… not that ridiculous

Would like me to know that my tape measure used on my own vehicle is defective

 

They broke a lc 200 steering rack in pre running and then broke a tie rod at about 5-6pm the day of the race. They didnt finish.

 

No…no it does not. Stock width is like 75”, the solo kit is a 4.5” kit. So put you at 84” before changing wheels and tires. Dtf 6” kit would put you at 87” before wheels and tires. 95” is wide as heck

 

I’m 88 with my 3.5 kit….

 

sounds like they need swing set to keep it together…

 

You’re right
I’ll just never speak again cause you know it all

clearly I wouldn’t know how wide my own vehicle is….

thank you for the correction

I’ll annotate the remarks

 

Yeah I’m almost 90 with my 3.5 kit and the 3.5bs wheels. Was just saying a solo 4.5 kit for sure does not put you at 95”. Unless you’re running like a 0bs wheel and 13.5” wide tires

 

So anyone running 37’s or 40’s

and anyone running a beadlock with a dedicated off-road kit…..


Oh, and here is a measuring tape next to 35x10.50r17 before we put on the 40’s

I’d show the 40’s measurements but I don’t have the truck near me.

 

Not sure what a dedicated off road kit is. And I’m on 37’s. So…

How’s the build coming along anyways?
