Oh look what Chris found.......Axle solution?

[slowandsteady BJ]

I haven't gone the Poly Perf. shaft option because the weight if the truck sits on those soft semi-floatin shafts. These on the other hand solve all the problems.

i saw those on the site the other day... look well made.. i have always been impressed with the quality from ruff stuff....

looks like year end sale... 15% off everything they make..

Yeah I just saw those too, got the same festivus email.

Pretty slick.

Then you just have the old hubstud issue, but I guess you could go up a size like some folks have.

How much width does this add to an axle I wonder?

Depends where you cut your axles off I believe... you can narrow/widen them... Thats the understanding I had...

course yeah, that's what I get for posting while in a food coma...


pretty slick tho, and it avoids the other gay thing with the stock FF's, if those wimpy little threads at the end of the spindle get damaged, the whole axle is pretty much f'd.

Hmm... this might be a nice addition to my cruiser... haha cam buy them and tell me how they are !

 

[slowandsteady BJ]

Sounds like they need a custom axle shaft.
Bobby Long will make them for Ruff.
Drive plates pressed on shafts (heavy duty)
Axle width is determined by owner.

This is the setup to have. I'm doing it.... just dont know when.

I'm gonna guess that'll be in the weeks following a loud bang...

Those are very slick, great option.....Dan is always coming up with some good new ideas....

 

[slowandsteady BJ]

Does the Mud handle "lcwizard" belong to Dan? (or another Ruff Stuff guy?)

 

[hellbent40]

Try Dan Fredrickson thats his handle on here....

I'm gonna guess that'll be in the weeks following yet another loud bang...
