Robertocritser LT, 4 link, and 37s build

Wanna race?

 

I think a combination of the frame and the mounting washer broke.

 

Store it at my place if you want

 

oh yea that's fun... had that happen to me on hells revenge coming down from the hot tubs... nasty sound. found the ground aluminum on my skid plate that led me to the break... ratchet straped the diff in place, disconnected the front driveshaft and drove out in 2lo the rest of the way.. had my buddy fix the mount that the bolt ripped out of and now it's stronger than factory. what a pain tho.. no oil leak for me tho

 

I'll do the same. And weld the block and see how it holds haha

 

I dont need any 2nd gen cooties getting on it!!

 

Only thing that would happen is if put your 37s on and see how they drove on the road.

 

sucks to see but I bet it was a good trip.

 

They are real nice, I like them! They balanced out nicely and are great in the wet and the dry, I would buy again!

 

@Robertocritser Curious what you're carrying for Hydro line trail repairs. Is a double ended hose barb and 2 worm gear clamps enough to handle the pressure?

 

My ps lines are hydro lines and fittings, I carry 5ft or so of hose and the field serviceable fittings. My plan is to make a new hose if need be. My pressure and return lines are all the same fitting and hose size.

 

Hydro line put out some pressure hose barb wouldnt hold. Alot of fittings are field serviceable and can rebuild with just a wrench and a vise.

 

So the ends on the hose have a nut to secure the hose on the fitting instead of the old crimp style?

 

Yes. You can get all kinds of configurations for them. You need a big ass crescent wrench and a vice or another big ass crescent wrench to tighten them, you should have that anyway tho in your trail tool kit.

Side note that company is badass for hoses and fittings, really good customer service and quick shipping.

 

Sweet thanks! Just looked and realized I have those on my Ram, but not on the box. May have to order some

 

I have a spare line that is the longest length of line in my system. I also have a field service kit like geoff said. Also I went with nice hoses and fittings.

 

Did you use 2 wire 3/8 hose for the plumbing?

 

Yes. Eaton brand as well

 

I won't lie it too me a while to figure out the fittings and hose for my set up since it was my first time really dealing with hydraulics. How important do you think the filter is on your set up?
