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

How can I keep the worm gear head/boot from colliding with the shock tab? Ball joint isn’t maxed out and I’m strapped one inch up on the shock per instructions.

 

You don't use a worm clamp and use the proper pinch clamp

 

You'll want an oetiker clamp.

 

That’ll help. These are what came on it unfortunately. The boot will still make contact however

 

Make sure the boot is on the axle in the right place. It might need to move closer to the joint.

 

I moved it down right past the splines. I strapped it higher until I can source new clamps

 

Brelands a good dude, i bought my flos from him a while back. Ill probably stop in to get my JD kit eventually after this wedding i have to pay for

 

I got some i could probably put in mail. Let me check when i get home

 

I think I’m just at the max travel. Should be fine with a new clamp. Guess I’ll need to put my resi up here since I didn’t get a 90 fitting on the resi side

 

You need the tool too i can put in mail if i have some with tool. I bought when i rebuilt my cvs

 

That would be awesome. I would take it to my local Toyota dealership but they didn’t have the tool. Had to go to Honda will gladly pay shipping. Let me know

 

Harry told me he uses the worm gears now. I had one of mine slip off. I used a worm gear for a temp fix but ultimately used the cv boot strap and tool from Kartek. Your boot needs to be pushed towards the joint more. I had to wrestle mine before I clamped it. I was stubborn and didn’t taker anything apart to get to it though.

 

This is what I did, oem clamp. No issues with clearance.

 

Ah yeah there’s more room. I thought I was at the splines but it was that round indention

 

I always use hose clamps there as it makes trail side repairs much easier. All you need to do is loosen the clamps and slide the boot down. It will clear no problem

 

I ended up using these and their tool. Been working for me.

will do man, ill check when i get home and text you if i have some left over. I should have a set

 

The resi is designed to attach to the side of the frame where you have that bumper bracket thing. If it were my truck I’d ditch that thing, mount the resi on the side of the frame where it’s designed to be mounted and reinforce the front frame horns so you don’t need that bracket

 

Clears no problem, simply push the boot down towards the hub
