FJ40 Upgrade: Offset Teraflex High Pinion D60, 14 Bolt Hybrid Rear Axle (1 Viewer)

[Nad Aitch]

Those carry a lifetime warranty and are naturally 2x the price

But the peace of mind you'll sleep with tonight knowing that's the last drive flange you'll ever buy - priceless

That’s exactly right. I may even go 4340, I’m only building this once

The 1410 seems to be the dealio.

Should be. Other things will grenade now before the driveshaft

A little warp control…

Banged out the final brackets for the Teraflex today. Folks sometimes ask how long this stuff takes. Today was 7 hours starting from scratch on the shock brackets to when the welder was put away

This makes feel better about my fumbling thru my build. EVERYTHING takes longer than I think it should.

Truss became permanent today. Now it needs some paint and final assembly

 

[Rock40]

Well, paint is done. May do assembly tomorrow

... I’m only building this once...

Riiight!

 

[Rock40]

Riiight!

Well…. Ridiculously strong is generally enough. The ProRock 60 front? Have only changed the oil in the 14 years I’ve run it… and it’s been run pretty hard

 

[Rock40]

It’s assembled and I’ve got my measurements done for the Dutchman shafts.

Drive flanges OD will need to be machined down a bit so the wheel can pass over it

Getting there tho

That is incredibly beautiful

Thx. Started as sort of crummy junk, transitioned to this

Just ordered inner double splined shafts from Dutchman in their Hy-Tuf material. From what I read on their site, it’s “off-road” rated and strength wise better than 4340 but not quite as strong as 300M. Lifetime warranty so what the heck $685 (pre-shipping) for both shafts and that’s with having them fully torsion turned for a bit more strength

 

[Rock40]

Well… how hard is a Branik Racing 14 Bolt drive flange? Ridiculously stinkin’ hard

 

[Rock40]

 

[Rock40]

Branik drive flanges are on, still waiting on axle shafts. Filled it with oil, added tires, rolled the axle 360° several times to oil the tubes.

Now it’s out in the other shop, waiting on install

If you pull a tire off again, will you get me a measurement on the hub surface to end of hub? It looks almost the same as a C&C hub but not sure. I am trying see what wms would be on a standard 14b.

Thanks

My C14 C&C WMS measures just shy of 63” if that helps.

Great progress on this project!!

Thanks all. I’ll get that measurement when I pull the tires to get the coils back in

 

[Rock40]

Dutchman shafts arrived, they look pretty darn good

New shaft compared to a Bobby Long 30 spline

Moment of truth, got the measurements right tho

LITTLE bit of an issue here at full bump passenger
