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

Hey guys

Long story short, was involved in a minor accident but one of the FR leaf hangers took some damage. Doesn’t seem to be sold separately for third gens so I’m looking at doing the JD SOA frame brace kit.

Anyone that has done would be kind enough to send some pics? Interested in how much modification the sliders would require.



TIA

 

I've done several. I don't know if I have any pics or if I did they'd be from way back, but basically we cut the rear slider support, and the frame plate, then shorten that one about 1/4", then reweld it, and weld a tiny filler plate to make the frame plate into one piece again. The frame support uses many of the same bolts as the sliders, so then it all just bolts together.

 

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.
Enjoying some turkey in 29 Palms then off to Ocotillo Wells

 

Gonna be in my dust all day, right?

 

Usually I am haha.

@TWTaco
Ran around Ocotillo all day. Such a rad time with perfect weather.

 

Started out great was having a blast chasing @Airdog and @sicki around about hour into it my aluminum CBI rack blew out 2 of 3 cross bar supports completely ripped away front cross bar barley holding it together. Time to shed the rack and tent.

 

Oufffff

 

Wow

 

That happened to someone in our group in baja last trip either RCI or CBI but same deal cracked all the corners where the tent was mounted.

 

Hey does anyone know the discount code for the JD Black Friday sale?

 

It’s applied when you put items in your cart

 

lol I guess the upper uniball conversion isn’t qualified for it. Thanks

 

It's weird, certain things you'd think are covered under the sale are not and then other stuff is. Steering pump kit is covered but their sliders aren't.

 

Probably items with minimum labor involved, that way they aren't eating costs of labor.

 

Guess I just have to get the steering pump and steering rack bushings just to get that sale price

 

I think that set up will be more than I paid for my truck that was already built!

Would it possible to design it so it used the same unit bearing hub assembly as the front?
