Solid Axle Swap BS Thread

your fault for not clarifying. You said same width, didn't say same width as a sas 2nd gen or same width as i sit now. so eat my ass.

 

I quoted/was talking to NwiTACO who is sas'd there for I was comparing my soon to be sas'd first gen to a already sas'd second gen.

So here's a spoon so you can eat my ass.

 

Calm down ladies

 

maybe you should hype up mister 2X4

 

He's a board?

 

It happens

 

ooooh that wasn't nice...

 

Got this kit on order. Hopefully it comes through

Nice!

 

I think they used to make a kit, didn't they? They were making the 3.4 kit a while back but stopped, now they picked up production again. Probably had too many people calling and complaining about not making it anymore.

 

Not sure. Kinda crazy though that the 22re kit is $100 more

 

I know the feeling

 

I just don't see wasting that kind of money on a pump and resi from PSC. The resi is ungodly expensive and the filter is shit and a shit design. Buy a pump from whoever you like, and then buy a resi from this guy:

Fifth row down on the right. Nice Spin on filter and only $85 shipped.

PSC charges $175-200 for a similar resi

 

What are the specs on it? Looks pretty tall to me. I was planning on attaching the PSC reservoir directly to the pump with a 45* fitting as long as it clears the hood.

 

I don't have the measurements handy, but the main body is just as tall as the PSC, but wider and holds more fluid. But yeah the spin on filter does hang down a bit, but its below the outlet port so it doesn't mean you have to raise the resi up at all to accommodate.

And I doubt its gonna clear the hood on top of the pump. Ionly install one on a 4 cylinder and no way in hell that was going on top of the pump. Ended up like this:

 

Seems PSC sends whatever reservoir they have in stock because all of the "kits" I've seen, the reservoirs are different. Some have side exit ports and some have bottom. I really don't know what reservoir I'll end up getting in my kit

 

They all use the same paper filter that's a PITA to change though

I bought the TG pump with pulley for $219 and an $85 resi so I save over a $100 over PSC

 

I didn't want to run anything Trail Gear and would rather have a complete matched system because I'm anal like that. Paying an extra $80 to have that is worth it to me How often do you expect to change the filter? Maybe once after installing the system? With every engine oil change? Its a sealed system so I can't really see the benefit in having a quick change filter especially if you run good power steering fluid (Amsoil tractor fluid).

 

I figure once a year for good measure.

 

Im getting ready to use a power steering bottle from a e450 that is 25 bucks from the parts counter and holds more then enough..not as pretty as a nice aluminium bottle like what you posted but works all the same. I'm also will be using trans cooler from a e450. The things huge.
