you not listening... the 4bt would be too heavy ;p

You don't have any weight sir! ...and the 4bt will have the torq fo' sure!

In my opinion the 9 incher would be the best

And too noisy. I feel sorry for anyone having to follow a diesel vehicle on the trail.

Ever get behind rig with engine running rich? Just makes my eyes water thinking about it.

Watch it Charles! ...last year I rode w/ Roger and the ride on his 40 was awesome!

As a matter of fact I am looking for a cheap 4bt for my 74 (AKA BUGGY) it will be my Kids truck!

anybody knows about one(4bt cummins) let me know!

Well hell, Bossman just gave them the thumbs down so this topic is dead.

Glad this flashback to 2005 is over in one page.

More tire with D60? 40's are plenty. Rock on.

You did not ride behind Roger. Big difference.

Does your wife say 9 incher is the best? hahaha!!!!! Sorry couldn't resist.

You can make a diesel smell better with french fry oil, but the noise still remains.

I'd do the Mercedes Benz diesel conversion before the 4bt.

You suck Charles! ....like I told kowboy "it is not how long it is, it's knowing how to use it and how you move"

lil' that I know, Mercedes it's not a common transplant as it's the cummins

I need a torchmate 2x4 CNC And a lathe!

I think at that point i will just move into my shop.

I always thought it would be cool to have a SMALLER/lLIGHTER version of either a mog / volvo portal axle or a top loader like the 2.5 ton military.

2.5 ton axles are supposed to be super easy to work on aside from the weight. Wouldnt know, i have not worked on one though
Top loader has good ground clearance with a shaved housing
.
Top loader diff the size of say 14 bolt, 9 inch whatever you get the idea
Lighter housing
Smaller axle shafts

Basically a 2.5 ton axle shrunk in the dryer ; )

Would be pretty cool

You just described Timmy's new axles... they are the s***.

Main problem with toploaders is packaging. To keep them low you have to build a chassis around the axles.

W Harrold in Oregon built Rock Axles and used Toyota outers and axles. It was beyond gay in my opinion.

Lenny get some longs and break them first...then call Bossman he has about 90% of the axles you would actually want to use at the Mecca.....but this message will self destruct in 5.....4.....3.....2....

I heard Mr. Franklin speaks well at the Mecca.

wait, what?! Does a set of locked 80 axles with a spare rear dif speak enough of said language to hold a conversation?

Umm - hello? What are you looking for?

Did u edit out the self destruct?! That was funny shunt right there.

If you look back in the thread getting longs is the plan and always has been.. The "what if" portion (different axle combo, portals, whatever) of this thread came in after i begun to think about what to build if i started breaking Ring & pinions in the mintruck axles i have. I doubt i will break the longs. The longs will just shift the weak point to my 4.10 gear set. Its the reason i kept the 4.10 vs.4.88s or 5.29s. I wanted the strongest gearset in there. We will see how long the mini truck diffs last.

If they dont last i want to be ahead of the game with what axle type ,combo i will go with.

Love tim camerons axles. Is there a build thread? Tim went from 2.5 axles ( fat girl), to dana 60 70. 14bolt style ( jenny craig buggy). Back to a hybrid type 2.5 ton style top loader. If i am off, whatever yall get my point .. I hope.

 

[Land Speeder]

Umm - hello? What are you looking for?

front Dana 60 pass-side drop and a rear 14 bolt.

obviously if I found said axles... I'd have no use for the NINE fjcruiser steelies and four 2" wheel spacers.

But in a million years you will never in your worse moment ever abuse something like that kid does. That whole rock-bouncing thing is barely a close cousin to the rockcrawling that you do.

 

[Bomar]

Lenny you can get mini truck diffs with 4.10 for like a c note.....carry 2 spares and a 18v impact and call it done'o.

Yes I know you are putting in longs but just had to needle a bit.

nom-nom. southern rock bouncing!

40's on four of them and four 33" rollers with a mounted spare.
