    FJ40 Full Floater Axle Build (IH8C-CLIPS)

    Hm...Bad ideas brewing, but it seem like a pair of FJ60 long side inners could be used with IFS hubs to make a centered rear full floater of about the same width. Not to hijack, but would anyone have a good reason why that wouldn't work? It'd obviously need seals inside the diff housing.

    FJ40 Full Floater Axle Build (IH8C-CLIPS)

    If your WMS distance is 58 7/8", how long did the shafts end up?

    3 link or radias arms?

    Doesn't that basically just hold the axle side to side by the joints binding?

    How to flop and go...

    Judging by the Samurai I was in today that rolled...First order of business is to stop attempting the obstacle. My friend just kept going...and going... The real breakage didn't happen until after he was already on his side. That's when just about everything broke.

    HD Skid Plate

    So, then, since the drum is the lowest part of the case, and the Orion doesn't lower that, it would be logical to assume that this transfer case wouldn't need to be modified for it? Thanks!

    HD Skid Plate

    Nobody knows? I'd like to have a skid plate before I pony up for the Orion...

    Passenger offset rear Dana 44 in FJ40

    For the transmission...Good luck mating up a 700R4. I think Mace has the only known adapter, and the people who made it couldn't get it working. You could install the automatic out of an FJ62, the A440F. I don't know what transfer cases you could mate up to that to get a center rear drop.

    HD Skid Plate

    For those with an Orion...Does just the case stick down 1/2" more, or does it lower the output as well? If it's only the case, then the bottom of this skid plate should already be low enough.

    Builds Lil' Tubby Build-up Thread

    I think the camo would look good. You might look at making the knob out of wood. I've used friend's metal shifters in the winter...COLD!! Anything below 10* outside and you have to wear the thickest glove you own on that hand.

    How much total lift are you running? I think an Offenhauser would work nicely as part of your tune-up :D

    Front axle housing bent - how much is too much?

    In my case, the front end basically dropped straight down 8 feet or so. The camber change was visibly noticable afterwards. To the OP: I'm curious how it might be that you bent the short side. It's darn near impossible to do without some sort of front end impact without bending the long side...

    Front axle housing bent - how much is too much?

    You should be able to pay less than that if you can find one locally. If it's bent at all, don't bother with it. It'll be more of a problem than it's worth. When I bent my front I had to keep using 4wd at low speeds in cold mud for about an hour, and even with that you could see on the shaft...

    Lower gears, transfer case questions...

    There's a 3:1 Orion now.

    Giant agricultural tires

    Brook has said before that if he wants to he can snap D60 front ends at will. Shaft, knuckle, whatever.

    Whats the Dirt on a Dana 300

    1980+ CJs and 1980 Scouts. The 1980 model has a shorter rear output and is somewhat sought after because of it. Price range...I've had one offered to me for $50 (and the guy knew what it was, not much of a demand around here), you might pick one up free if you're really lucky, or a couple...

    Builds Fj40 One Ton Buildup

    Rear full floater 60's are almost all 30 spline. There aren't that many 30 spline fronts floating around and it's highly unlikely yours is one of them.

    Chevy axles/springs under a GMC Jimmy

    The old Chevy axles were passenger's drop, the IFS Chevies are driver's drop. You'll need to change the transfer case or get a driver's drop front axle.

    Four Link Frnt End

    I'm sure those are just for mock-up purposes. He'll probably sleeve them with some rope before burning them in. :D

    Early bronco front suspension under a 55

    I think you'd be very hard pressed to get the EB stuff under a '55 without lifting it 6". Stuff's going to stick up above the axle that wasn't there before. The '55 frame was never designed for a panhard. If you're worried about breaking the '55 front suspension with less than 6" of lift, you...

    From what I've seen of his passenger's side, I would most definately not call it a 'clean cruiser'!
