nice find on those shocks! that will make it ride much different.

 

im surprised that R&P hasn't blown up yet lol. i guess no one's really wheeled that axle though.

 

i bet money it has more to do with who sets the gears up than how hard its been wheeled.

 

haha i never once touched the mud with that axle..I wish i did but i tore it all down..

the gears were set by a professional mechanic when I drained the oil there werent any shavings or anything...

 

Opened the diff. The gears and detroit are in great shape. The pattern on the gears looks fine. Hard to get a good pic of the pattern lol.


Ordered the power steering fittings from PSC. Still need to order the pitman arm and the ballistic brackets. Maybe I'll get those tonight.

 

thats what Im talking about!

 

i definitely want to see your steering setup and how its gunna be.

 

4.88s make those teeth pretty damn small. just sayin.

 

Sweet! So this axle was on Beards truck at some point? Then Evan, now Ryan... lol

Cant wait to see it finished!

 

sweet action, going to have to get a meet going after it is all done

 

It will be just like the rest of the SAS guys. Toyota box and steering shaft made from 12 different vehicles.

If I have a bunch of trouble I'll just have to upgrade

For sure, we need to get ahold of Jason and see if we can still get into that spot.

 

so what are you planning other than the swap?? tire size staying the same??

my urge is getting worse and worse everyday thanks for this thread......subscribed take lots of pics ecspecially of the steering

 

Yes tires are staying the same size. For the stuff I'll be doing 35s should be plenty big.

 

Argh no Midland trip next year. Gives you more time to get this done haha

 

That ranger will look sick with a solid axle wish i could get the rcd parts

 

wimp





what im just sayin

 

when i get the d60 under my ranger i plan on going with 37 or 38's on 17's :)

 

yeah, what are your plans for the RCD lift? (front that is....)
u gonna sell it? ...how much?

 

35s are where its at! Besides the D30 won't be happy with anything bigger, not that itll be very happy with 35s but you get the idea.

As of right now its already sold. Sorry.

 

So, Ryan.. Katemcy is re-opening in February....................................... i expect to see you there I'll even block off some area for you to park lol

 

stand behind the 35s, its a really good size imo.

 

I will seriously consider it. I wanna do some wheeling on some of that good stuff that test your limits.




updated pics uploading now. Got the RCD out in 2.5 hours. Sucker comes out a lot faster than it goes in lol.

 

Ordered the brackets from ballistic and also ordered the pitman arm this morning. I'm gonna start cutting the bracketry off the frame tomorrow hopefully.

 

mm, so much grinding fun ahead of you.

 

Yeah now!! Do work!!

What's gonna happen to the superlift shaft?
