I have a 72 Fj40 with the stock 3 speed transfercase and axles. I am in the process of getting the parts together to do a spring over. I have a few questions. I am thinking about running a front CV drive line from a 85 toy truck. Will these work with my application, and if not can I make them work. I am also trying to come up with a list of parts that I will be needing and also a list of special tools. I am going to rebuild the axles and lock them up while I am at it. Does anyone have a list of parts needed and special tools that will be needed.
I am ordering
The Spring Over Axle Kit from Proffits Cruisers
The kit includes:
- A front axle housing (turned 13 - 16 degrees depending on what you need)
- Spring hangers and shackle hangers for the front axle (for a shackle reversal)
- Spring perches for the rear axle
- Bolts and Bushings
- Track bar for the rear.
Does anyone have any experience with this kit, it seems like a good deal at $498 dollars. I was going to try to get the axle cut and turned locally, but I dont know anyone in the Fresno California area that does it.
-I have front mini disc brake conversion ready to bolt on with all the brake lines, brake pads, and turned rotors.
-I ordered a set of profields and I have Asin hubs to go with those
-I will soon be ordering some cromo inners
What I Need :
-Axle overhaul Kits-Does anyone know were to get these at a resanable price and what kit would I use since I am using Mini truck disc conversion.
-Rear extended brake lines-Where is the best place to get these.
-New shocks, but I will get those after I get lift done so I can properly measure it.
-U-Bolt kit-Can I use stock size U bolts with a spring over
-Will I need shims for the axle, and how do I know if I need them
Any help with the special tools would be great. Thanks in advance for any help that you can give me.
Thanks
Cacy
