    Wheelbase ?'s

    Well yeah but how does that affect wheelbase? :confused: :D

    Wheelbase ?'s

    I have 98" with reversed front and rear springs (just checked). I am wondering why my number differs from Woody's, is it becuase I don't have a shackle reversal?

    Crossmember size?

    It will be similar to that, ,with bushings at both ends. I was also planning on keeping the skid plate seperate for it.

    Yes, exactly.

    Yes. I think I am going to run it without a c&t. I am not trying to avoid a c&t, I have spared no expense or effort on this build trying to make it right. Its becuase of the trade off. Clearance is always good, thats why I am doing the SOA in the first place. However, if I rotate the...

    No worries, appreciate the offer. It was good to see the notcher in action as I am thinking of buying one, and the notch you did for me means I am ready to start building the anti wrap bar. Thanks :cheers:

    Crossmember size?

    Due to clearance on the t-case it has to be an inverted truss, like frame\___/frame. 60wag was looking at it last night and thinks the 1.5" .250 wall DOM will be plenty strong, this is after all just a brace for the tcase and toybox. The tranny is bolted to a '76 bellhousing which has its own...

    Thats great info. :cheers:

    I reached the same conclusion, any thoughts which is the best way to go? Clearance is always good, but so is a nice DS. What would 'nutley do? :D Hey don't forget you have a whole stick or so of HREW here. You don't have to move it, its still stored with my tubing, just wanted to remind you.

    I mocked up a DS with duct tape and welding rods from center to center. It's about 3.5' long with the front axle weighted. Although the rods sag a little bit its still safe to say teh DS is pretty close to 10 degrees from horizontal, with no sag it would be less, maybe 9 degrees? For reference...

    Ok here it is. Angle of output flange of t-case, angle of pinion and caster. It didn't come out super clear in the pics but teh protractors both read 88 degrees (same plane) and the caster gauge reads 4 degrees.

    Crossmember size?

    Think of it as standing in the middle a slackline. Once the slack line reaches a certain point of tension it stops moving downwards and holds you up, and a large part of the force pulling you down (gravity) is translated in to force trying to pull the two slackline anchors together. On second...

    Crossmember size?

    I think the force is up and down, so perpendicular to the long axis of the tube. Ideally you allow a little twist for torque, hence the rubber mounts, but you want to stop the up and down play possible with the lengthened drivetrain due to the Toybox, the split case now has a lot of leverage on...

    Crossmember size?

    I was looking at the Toyota mini truck t-case mount, its made out of 3/16" and has a rubber isolator. The screws in the base of it are only 1/4". Grante dthe crossmember can be stronger than the mount, but that seems like an exponential difference.

    Crossmember size?

    Holy crap, thats huge. Thats gonna be a beast to squeeze in there.

    Crossmember size?

    Toybox and split case, I have the 76 bellhousing bolted up to the 85 tranny, so I was going to use the mount point under the toybox versus the one under the tranny as its closer to the split case. How about 1.5" OD .250 wall DOM?

    Crossmember size?

    For a crossmember/support running under the Toybox to a Toyota mini-truck t-case mount will 1" OD .120 wall DOM be strong enough?

    Will do. And Ill note all the angles too.

    For future reference, the combination of H42/Toybox/Split case with reversed stock 40 springs and SOA will damn near fit the stock rear DS. We were sizing it yesterday. I want a DS with a lot more travel in the splines though so I wont use it.

    Front springs are reversed too, so like a 3" gain there? Not sure, wheelbase is 98.25 inches.
