as soon as I get it built I will be selling my fx4 L2 axle (31 spline, 8.8)
just wanted to give yall a chance to start saving your money...lol

the expo axle is clean, with a little wire brushing and some paint, it will look like new
in the picture I had started cutting off the shock tabs, they are all the way off now
I got the perches, tabs, cover, ect.. just need the new ring and pinion
hopfully I can afford to get it in the next few weeks

 

sweet

 

What is the point of putting an expo axle if you already have a level 2 axle?

 

disc brakes

 

Nice! Should be picking mine up next weekend.

 

Surprised you didn't just put discs on yours since they bolt right on

 

Should've just done a disc swap.

 

I got it #1 for the disk brakes and #2 I can regear, lock it, superior 88 c-clip eliminater kit
with out having any down time in my truck, its my dd so this way when Im ready to swap it, it only takes 10 minutes

 

Makes sense, didn't even think of that

 

just curious how much did you pay for it if you dont mind me asking

 

is the axle u want to sell a 4.10 setup with lsd and where are u located... and how much would one have to save for it?

 

I picked up the expo axle for $200

yup it has 4.10 gear ratio, and the: Zexel Torsen All-gear, torque-sensing differential;
similar to Truetrac but has beefier case, more aggressive teeth, and a higher torque bias so it reacts quicker.

I was thinking around $300-$350 some where in that range
I think it is about $500 just for the lsd (new)
the axle has about 65000 miles on it
Im located in Hobbs NM 88240

 

is that axle up-side down in that picture

what year of explorer is that axle off of

 

Yes

 

umm no that axle is sitting right

 

Look again, it's upside down.

 

Noob, look at where the ring is on the diff cover.

Explorer axles mount over the spring.

 

what year of explorer is that from

 

yes it is upside down...lol

it came out of a 97

 

Koyn, would you just sell the L2 axle set-up without the Torsen and gears for less?

Also, interested in coming down Sunday for some wheeling?

 

Im sure we can work somthing out bro


thanks to razor's edge Ryan I got the spring perches and shock tabs mounted up

sort of a mid way threw shot

 

Looks good! How do you know what's level? Do you figure out the correct pinion angle first with the bottle jack and then go from there?

 

That little red angle finder sitting on the spring perch is a life saver.

 

we measured the pinion angle of the one in my truck, sat the expo axle on stands and jacked up the pinion until it was at the same angle
then measured the angle of my spring perches and set the expo perches at that same angle

 

What type of welder are you using?
