I’m leaning towards the e-brakes too. The reason im wanting to swap axles is beacause of the tires. Its almost impossible and expensive for the 9.00x16x37 tube mil spec tires. It would be cheaper to swap the axle. I just cant find info on what length i should order.

Hello mudders! I’ve got a few questions regarding the m101a1 trailers. I’m wanting to convert the old axle to a more user friendly axle. -What length hub to hub should i use? -What weight rating? -Brakes or no brakes? which i know is a preference thing but curious on y’all opinion? If anyone...

Get new spark plugs. Motors not running hot. Plugs are just wore out.

hello all I am posting this for a fellow mudder in need of some help and thought I'd just share with everyone. My rig is a 91 fj80. I had recently purchased a new set of wheels and tires from 4wheel parts shipped to my door step. They were the fuel beast d564 in 17x9 3.5 offset. They claim to...

My truck didn't seem to like it. shifting hard and when I had to down shift rpms would jump way high. When I would tow with that set up especially on...

Clean set right there.

I have 37's and 4.88 gears with an Ausie locker in rear dif. This set up puts my rig at 1-2 mph over stock on freeway doing 65. IMO go with 4.88 for the simple fact that your gonna eventually land on the 35 vs 37 forums when you eventually get new tires. 4.88 gives you options... we all like...

Selective hearing.

this is gonna sound a little dangerous. I've done this before with extra caution. I've had your issue on a different vehicle. This is the way I found it. Chock both rear tires. Place floor jack near right tire on axle as to only lift right tire off ground around 2-4 inches then quickly release...

Like ton504 said. In the aviation world pilots will seal their engine compartments to aleviate stagnant air and increase air cooling flow over the heads for more efficiency.Your best bet would be electric push pull fans on a thermo sensor.
