this is realistically how low the tcase is going to be, i can live with this.
 
buy my rear axle!!!!!


complete rear FJ40 rear axle. located in houston.

i figured it needs to be in here since its cruisah related, ja know?

sprung over
new 4.56 gears
welded diff
new gravelmaker rear disc brake brackets
new cross drilled and slotted zinc flashed 3/4 ton rotors
new 3/4 chevy calipers and mounting hardware
new toyota flange on diff.
new wheel bearings/races and seals.




never been run. im going to a different axle.

600.00 bucks
 
cant go back any further without linking it. im going to break it anywhoo with my new drivetrain.
 
How far down in the teens? Here is a picture of mine on 12" flooring. I don't remember exactly, but I think it's securely in the high teens. I've had it for about 5 years. Rebuilt the joint once. Not a huge deal.

pics on pirate

I checked out the pics on pirate looks pretty good! By the way what will you do with the 2F?

I have a 71 with a 1F- Project Ugly Betty it runs okay for now but eventually I would like to go with the 2f I think.

I have been posting progress on IH8mud if youre interested

:cheers:
 
that sure is re-assuring. looks like Jesse's work? :D


i sold the 2f to Javiers :D

thanks Javier!!!
 
picked up a 67 inch WMS 14 bolt today for 150 bucks. stripped it down, and currently am hunting for disc conversions, perches, ubolts, spring plates, gears, a detroit, and a diff cover :rolleyes:



but i got the axle though!!!
 
so fawkers, im still working on it, even with a broken ass and road rash.

for some reason, my ass turned black and blue today :confused:
i ate s*** on a cr250 and used my ass as an anchor getting some good road rash as well..... this was the first day i was moving around normally. maybe the bruise came up from the depths of my ass??? whatever. i still worked hard today.


got a pile of stuff from dan at roughstuffspecialities.com for my 14 bolt conversion :D:D:D

i got my drivetrain where i wanted it in the frame. i mocked up the grill radiator and hood to make sure i was gonna have enough room for electric fans and stuff. im all bueno.

made a engine mount and stands to hold the engine up. it came out pretty good IMO. then again im just a hack fabricator working out of my garage, so dont expect killer work outta me :o

put a driveline brake on the NP205

cut the s***!!! out of my tub to make the trans and tcase tuck up into the body for minimal hangage under the frame rail from that dang '205.

i might be cutting the oil pan to clearance the front driveshaft :confused::confused:

ill have to take a chunk of 2 1/2 inch exhaust tubing i have floating around and mock up a d/shaft to see if im going to hit the oil pan or transmission. how skinny of a front shaft tube will i be able to run? jesse from high angle will be building my shafts.

god damn it this thing is coming together!!!
