[LT]

Is that off set for a cruiser t-case?

 

[incogrhino]

I was wondering what happened to this build.Just given ya some s***.

 

[Marko]

Yep, It's offset for the FJ60 Case that's in it. The offset is real close to the FJ 60 rear, just around 3.5" wider.

Yeah, I know I'm slow.........sometimes.

I got get myself back in gear and get this thing done so it can be ready for the TCLA/TAC event at the park this fall.

In late September?????? Anyone know off hand? Yall going to bring a crew down from MI, again?

Sept 20 - 23.... swet I was hoping it would be done by then.

I chatted with Ron the other day and he mentioned 6 or 7 from the MI crew coming down. That would be awesome!

 

[incogrhino]

I'm tryin the get my 40 done(well drivable and movin) for that.I'm going to slam on it all weekend again like the last 4 or so.If not maybe the 60 will come down.Thats if Ron picked up the big trailer he was talkin about the last time I seen him and still feels like dragin my junk down.I'll hafta check into that I guess.Was unable to get my butt down there last year.: ( so hopefully I can make it this year.Now go get to work.Like I'm one to talk as I sit here and type.

[Z()LTAN]

woah, this is gonna be so hardcore...!

GO NUTZ BRO!

 

[Marko]

Front upper and panhard mount...................

 

[LC_Hamma]

Look like you got some good burn in!
Just wondering, but why'd you opt for the smaller ring gear instead of keeping the D60? Ground clearance or you gonna hog out the side gears for 35 spline in the LC diff? Did you machine some bearing cap pucks to align the 3rd member? Sorry I missed this years Flat Nasty Event, I even paid Next year man I'm gonna have my rig 100% ready!

 

[Marko]

The Flat Nasty ride was a blast. I'm be down next year as well for the TAC Event.

Yeah, I made the pucks for the carrier bearings, tubes, ect.......

Then use the 5 foot Thompson Rod to keep it all in line. On one of the first pics you can see the pucks in the D60 rear with the bar,same idea on the front.

One of the pics of the front has a bushing on the end. I have few set now for the axles, ends, and chunks that I most commonly use.

The donor 60 parts was actually a D50 from a super duty, and we already had the ARB and gears, so I put them together.

Yeah I'll broach them out when I have the ablity to do it myself, which is a few months down the road, if get my act together. For now, I got some other projects in front of it, since most of them come with at least 35 splines.
