Malburg114's 3Link go fast SAS

Any regrets not going 5.29s? I see you are running 4.88s

 

4.88s with an auto was perfect I thought on 35s. Everyone else says otherwise lol. Cruises 80 if I want without it screaming. Offroadings a little different for me cause i have dual cases with 2.28 and 4.7 and mainly use the 4.7 and really like it.

Going to 37s so getting 5.29s. Interested in an 8in with 488s and a detroit?

 

I just purchased dual arb's. I shoulda asked sooner...lol

 

Thanks for the info bro. 4.88s dont sound too bad

37s with 5.29 gears


With the amount it cost to regear & gain (200ish rpms), IMO put that towards a front FJ80 high pinion diff. You'll get some strength in the front and bit more clearance.

 

That's what james from low range said. Problem is I just rebuilt this axle and redid all the steering.And not sure i have room for a high pinion diff. Oil pans already been self clearanced by the steering lol. I think I'm going to run the gears I have now, get a wider front housing and regear with an arb in the front later down the road. I had the opportunity to buy 40s (same price as the 37s I bought) but opted out. If I go any bigger than these tires I'll be getting some 1tons or something. Plus 40s would make all the local trails boring lol

 

I'll trade you the 3rd for your arb

 

You're 4 cyl??

 

No haha I have the 3.4l. The front 3rd is just he 4cyl housing.

 

Not really sure if I'm going to even worry about regearing after seeing this. I'll drive it first and see then decide.

 

I'm on 4.88s with 37s and pull the expo trailer along with me.

 

That James guy is lame don't listen to him!

Run the gears ya have see how your set up does / holds up with the 37s.. If something is terrible make it better.. If not leave it..

I said tons and 40s.. but..

I also have a little rig on Toy axles and 35s for the easier stuff and have a blast in it!

 

Thanks guys for the input. Going to wait to regear and get some rims and a housing lol. And may be time for some chromoly shafts lol

 

Let me know when you are ready to buy some chromos maybe I can save you a few bucks.

 

Will do. Get me a deal on a housing as well please What do you recommend for chromos? RCV or Trailgear? Im sure its trail gear but just wanted to see.

 

We have very little markup on housings so I can't help ya out there wish I could buddy!

 

Narrowed done what wheels I think I'm gonna get.

Raceline Monsters. The non beadlock ones. Almost half the price of the real beadlock s so they will do for now. Have to decide on machined or black? Any opinions? I'm leaning towards the machined (silver) just to be different.




They have two options for offset and backspacing. It's a 17x9 in wheel with either 0 offset and 5 in backspacing or -12 offset and 4.5 in backspacing. Any preference on which to get?

 

Make sure you run some tape around the inner bead .. usually 2 wraps is the magic number..
Are these wheels for the new axle or your axle?

Neither of those options will stick out much .. What do you currently have on there?
