Solid Axle Swap BS Thread

A: fuck you.
B: no matter how lazy i am my shit always works.

Yeah i got the weaker part i dont think that's an issue but i get it. i have the right hand tap i just need the left but no they arent that expensive youre talking to a guy has well over $70K in tools whats another few hundered even if i use them very little i love my tools.

no 1.5" will work but i want the stronger links not what will work. and bigger is better.

 

I don't think he can find threaded bungs for 1.5" ID

 

the joints im getting have option for 1.5" bungs im just saying id like a 2.0" bung

Edit: i just looked again 1.5" is all they offer for a 1 1/4" joint so im just going to have to build my own 2" bungs

 

You mean an option for a 1.5" shank? Your improper use terminology is what I believe is causing some of the confusion here.

Your edit appears clearer. What joints are you going to be running?

 

Bigger is better to an extent, then it becomes stupid. You better go with 4" DOM that is 1" thick

 

Now youre just being a wise ass. I want 2" and I will have it! Does'nt matter if i build a bung for it or just fab an adapter really fast it will happen.

Posting my opinion or the route im taking with my SAS has gained me very little usable information in this tread and if anything has started more shit than its worth so i wonder why i even bother anymore.

 

Probably cause you're doing it differently than everybody it seems. For example. You want a high frame height when everybody else wants as low as possible.

 

You can try your luck at a more SAS friendlier place such as....Pirate4x4 lmao

 

The Ruff Stuff 1.25 heims have a tube adapter that have a 1.5" OD for 1.5" ID DOM.

 

Or i can do what i did with my old truck and just get it done and wheel the fuck out if it fix my mistakes and not worry about it.

Edit: besides i dont think i need jerkoffs that drive chevy and fords telling me how to put a D60 under my tacoma

 

I know what type you are. You're the go-against-the-grain and maybe a little bit of a one-upper aren't ya? I would say you're wasting effort making your own adapters to run massive links but knock yourself out.

Edit: What are you trying to achieve here? You seem to know everything already. If you can't figure out how to machine an adapter to fit 2" ID DOM, you really don't know everything. That kind of shit is extremely basic.

 

After him helping me build my rear end, I would put him on par with Logan (Username) on here. Has his own redneck ways of doing things that seem unorthodox to others, but damn do they work. He just doesn't have the build together yet so no proof that it will work good.

 

Ha ha ha this is true. Anyways I can't really talk. I haven't even begun to collect parts.... :doh:

 

So I skimmed through his post. Still curious what usable information he's looking for in a BS thread

rctoy, here ya go. Don't have to make new adapters or anything

Herp a derp derp. I had a brain fart. I even used those bungs from ruffstuff since my links are 2" .25 wall. I only sleeved the center 18" where the bending moment would be the greatest with the weight of the truck on the links.

 

Holy shit that is some spendy shit right there

 

Granted, 2.25" x .375 DOM on that website is like $37 per foot and I can get it locally for $15 per foot. 2.5" x .500 is probably around $20 a foot locally.

 

Good Bye IFS

 

Woohoo! Another convert
