    Cast steel, cast iron is a mother fucker to weld too. Preheat, weld, controlled cooling and then you still have a chance of failure.

    Just for the sake of knowing what would you use? And would you preheat any? Might be doing something similar to a set of knuckle I have.

    Finally found a 14 bolt for cheap, these bastards are heavy. Was not easy gettin in out of the truck and in the shop what so ever.

    Today my stuff I ordered from sky showed up, they def pack stuff well. Everything looks to be good quailty, kinda shitty that there was no paperwork, stickers or a thank you. While back order 30 buck worth of stuff from lowrange and got all that stuff.

    Very nice!! :woot: They seem to never send a thank you for any directions. It's a custom kit, but they have been selling it for ever. Give them a call maybe they will send you some! :cool:

    Word of advice, make sure you buy a shave kit for that 14bolt. They are STUPID low hanging. You will thank me later. :cool:


    What are you working on? :popcorn:

    Yeah it will be shave, if I remember correctly it has 7-8 inchs of clearance with the 31s it has on it now. Yeah that was the main reason I went with there stuff, and the fact I've seen it in action on a one of the guys rig on a ure trip. Now my only worry is how long the pos Dana 44 can hold on. Dana 60 is in the plan for the summer. Hopefully gonna use it as mock up to get it around until I get the funds for a 60.

    My D44 holds up well. All depends how stupid you are to it, and how big your tires are!

    37" again. Wouldn't go any bigger... My axle tube is bent already, only flaw I have on the D44 so far, after 2 years. But it still wheels just fine.
