goofs!

 

Thank you Jason..haha I don't speak Max i guess hahaha

 

Having trouble packaging my air bumps.

Only place I can put bump on passenger side.



I don't think I should have any problems with it hitting during articulation. Other side could still drop an 1" but... Obviously I won't have the bump down that far in the can.



No where to hang the driver one but here. Dunno what else to do.







This is my other problem.


Almost at full droop.


2 3/8" clearance.

So I'm not sure if I notch the tower or if I run some borgeson joints or something crazy.


Just for fun

 

I don't care what you do..just do it..and fix it..and finish it...hot damn this is gonna be a beast!!

 

Holy tits.

 

also...how you gonna fix the steering??

 

I'm not sure if I do some crazy joint setup with a heim to support it or if I just notch and then box in the shock tower.

 

Why do you need steering, this thing will just be able to plow over anything let the truck decide where it wants to go.

 

Those 40's look massive..

 

lol, that axle looks little with those tires.

 

I decided to dump the 40s in favor of 42" treps.



























Just kidding, but I did decide I could fit some 42" rockers or treps down the road.

 

i was just about to ask are you upgrading the rear?? but seen post 140

im curious how strong a factory 9.5 is, but not sure if i'd risk it lol

 

Fzj80s with 40s typically break the flange studs, you can upgrade em pretty easy and then they hold up reap well. I think with my shit I'd roast shafts and 3rds though. Also elocker 3rds twist the splines and get the shaft stuck which makes the 3rd stuck which means you have to cut the housing. So full float 9.5 no elocker. Semi floats are pretty damn strong too though. Don't hear of many broken shafts.

 

Bad. Ass.

 

yah.... im curious if ill twist my chromos

flange studs sitting at home, I have thought of tossing out the feeler for anyone who wants to switch elocker for non elocker axles, so I can throw some AIR under mine.... but lets face it.... if im going that route, I may as well drop a dana 60 front and 14 bolt hahaha

 

Idk haven't seen anything about twisting chromos but if you're running chromos why not just do it right? Besides you could about pay for your ARB woth what those elockers sell for.

 

The front 8" is the problem though, you'll pop the 3rd before anything else I'd expect.

 

lots of guys beat on the 8" with 40s and chromoly, ive seen a couple broken thirds, I personally woudlnt run 40's on the 8 but to each their own

Ill stick with my 37's
