Yes, you need to swap axles, the stock Sami stuff barely holds its own with the 1.3s and 1.6 swaps, anything bigger is asking for broken parts. 1.6 is a nice easy weekend swap and not too bad on the pocket book if you can find a good engine at a decent price. 2.0 is a decent swap too, call...

And vehicle weight.

Nope, pretty sure I meant 5+ gears; that covers the 5.71s as well as the 5.29s.

Have your diffs put together by someone who knows what they are doing and the 5+ gearsets will be OK. Pay good hard cash or bribe someone with beer or liquor, either way get it done right.

Bunk, you can lock the ARB in while moving, just don't have the wheels spinning at different speeds, so basically let off the gas. No need to stop. Seizing the gears to the crosspin isn't caused by locking in under throttle. I'd need to see the crosspin to make a call, but it wouldn't be from...

So how far do you take your line of thought? Manual trans- No extra fluid lines or cooler to worry about. All those internal clutch plates, bands and servos to have a CHANCE failure.... Oh wait, clutches can pack with mud, the hyd throwout brg blow it's seal; There has been more than one person...

This scares me a bit too, but with the case being damaged, some grinding to fit a new part to a damaged part would need to be done. Just have a case on order and when they get them in, pick one up to have installed when you get a chance. That's true, but I still have my hookups there and you...

Rick, .002" is fine on runout and you'll be hard pressed to find any new diff, ARB or other brand, that has .000" or even .001" runout. The ring gear will also be a little out and have a high and low spot. Find the high spot on one and the low spot on the other and fit them together and you'll...

Spray a couple rags with some WD40, not soak, just a good heavy spray, and then wrap the tools in the rags. You have lubed tools and rags that'll help clean greasey stuff up and the rags will help keep them from making too much noise. And yeah, in an ammo box to keep them dry. :D

Cool buildup.

x2.... 63"s is about the narrowest you can comfortably go with TJ bracketry on the front end. Spidertrax stuff is definitely very, very nice, but they are the first ones to say their knuckles are for competition use and they're not sure how much they would reccomend them for the street due to...

And the T-case is a little higher in ratio; Mario and Kai used the SJ410 gears to build the original 4 to 1 Sami t-case gearsets.

It's a pretty neat idea, Bruce has been working on that for years but has had lots of problems with the execution of it. Here is another H2O idea that was being passed around a year or two ago: http://www.mobilemag.com/content/100/354/C8115/ There is a neat vid on that page too. Edit: Found...

Sky's manufacturing has a couple different Toy arms.

We've got the small Dewalt for notching tubes and the big Dewalt for drilling big holes. The small one works fine for the notcher... hate the keyless chuck though, time to swap in a keyed chuck. The big Dewalt will rip your arm off if you get in a bind. And for longevity, it's been a grizzly...

Yes, when you flip it off, you are locking the air in the blue line.

You have the solenoid in backwards, port #1 should go to the compressor. Port #2 to the blue line.

Crash, The PC1200s should only run you $140-ish.

Quite a few years ago I was talking about the red top issue with one of Optimas tech boys. He told me that they don't like a slow drain and it can clogg up the plates (making terminology up here), anyway he says to hit them with a serious charge to blast them clean and then they'll hold a...

Looks good Justin! :clappy:
