hydroram mounting.... (4 Viewers)

[Eskimo]

Looks like you've got it, Woody...

For the studs, I've never found one of mine to come loose.. BUT, when I swapped to mini knuckles, I did the same thing Woody did... lock-tite, and double-nut the studs into place, after thoroughly cleaning everything. I'm running RockBuggy Supply arms, no hydro (and damn do I want it!), same 38.5's. Nuts on the arms are torqued to 80ft-lbs.

I'm hesitant to go assist only because there's time when I've wedged the right tire against something and couldn't steer, only to see that it was a BIG ass rock.. if I had hydro assist, I coulda pushed into that rock hard enough to break something, like the knuckle studs... Trying to keep my junk "me-proof"

I sure like the look of those Lab arms and the design is very well thought out.

Done is a relative term...lol

I still need to add the hydroram, keep forgetting to call WTOR and get one ordered up. The steering kicked butt even without the ram a couple weeks back in Attica, but my digi camera did not (dead)

The front axle project is ending up in a magazine publication coming soon to a mailbox near you, so I'm delaying an official webwriteup until that comes out.

Did this issue come out yet?

From what I know about your setup, mine is going to be very similar. Let's see some pics!


This is the ram I'm looking at:
