4x4 Wanna Be Part 2 - SAS Toyota Axle/3Link

SAS is more bad ass. Nice write up, and I am glad I was right about the price

 

Very close but you quoted 10k but you were all over it

 

LOL I have to admit and give ALL the credit to ya! You pretty well hit the nail on the head.

The best part is I still would like : new leaf pack, chromo shafts and track bars for the rear. That should put me right on, if not over the $10,000 you had originally told me it would take

 

Because I was thinking I could do the front and rear for $5,000

 

Yeah I miss that setup. I used it as my bean field gun. At 600 yds me and the gun had a pretty good relationship. I would like another one day, but I will probably build me a 700 sometime in the future.

 

What exhaust setup you running? How does it sound?

 

I'm running the Flowmaster Super 40. It's alright, it doesn't sound like a V8 by any means, but gives it a little bit meaner sound.

 

After one hell of a weekend at Windrock, TN I now have another damn wish-list

Hopefully here in the next couple months I want:

Trail-Gear chromoly package (dirty 30's, inner and outter hub gears)
4.88 High Pinion with a Detroit
4.88 for the rear E-locker
All Pro 3in Expo pack

 

Different world over there ain't it?

 

It is... I love that place. It poured rain just about all weekend and I still had a blast! I was impressed with everything from the wheeling, the camping ground, the staff, everything was top notch!

 

the beast has a birth mark now

 

That little thing was in a hell of a tough spot

 

hahaha no one, esp John, will believe how we got it unstuck either.

 

hillbilly ingenuity

 

I'm listening.

 

2WD low, spin the tires in reverse while adam and matt push against the side to get it un-wedged.

 

I can see that. Stranger things have occurred.

Last time I was out there, a group of us got in over our heads on trail 39. There was one turn that was so off camber it would've rolled anyone that tried to turn through it, so we actually ended up lowering the vehicles past the turn in reverse on winches, then having them make the turn as they climbed out. It was the safest way

 

And we almost tried 39 this weekend

 

If it's anything like the time we were there, it's good you didn't. I wouldn't go back to that without solid axles, 40s, and a DGAF attitude towards possible carnage.

 

Dang, very glad we didnt.
