Alright, I have been putting this off due to the amount of work involved...........but here I go.
Tired of my front end parts becoming loose and breaking, I had this front axle that I have building off to the side. It is an AX10 axle w/ CVD's, Aluminum high steer, Aluminum inner C's, new steel tie rod with steel heims, and heavy duty steel locker.......
Off to the photos:
Here it is with the front end all ripped out, ready for the new one:redneck:
....and the new axle:awesomework:
While I was at it, there was some needed attention to the front. I had this thing as low as I could get it with what I had to work with, but that wasn't good enough. I cut the very front apart and re-did it:awesomework: Should work much better now
Now I have to wait for the paint to dry so I can begin re-assembly:awesomework:

Yet again, more changes
All that torque was fun, but now I want speed! I got a wraith trans and a 7 turn puller from my brother. I lost the dig option as of now, until I get the dig for this trans.....oh well. It worked out pretty awesome. Bolted right up to the same mounting location of the HR LowCG trans
I am running a 20 tooth pinion and stock spur, as of now. We will see how that works out for me. I got a bunch of different pinion sizes, but it seems you can't fit much larger than a 20 in there without modifications. May end up putting a smaller one in anyhow.
On with the pictures:
OUT WITH THE OLD
New setup
Just sittin in there
INSTALLED:cheer:

So I stuffed all the electronics back in it to see how fast it is .....
Holy smokes!!! This thing hauls Ass! I think I will be leaving the 20 in it. :awesomework:
I had the throttle trim on the radio, set at less than half way for some reason. Upon maxing it out, this thing screamed across the living room and I have the drag brake set to 100% on it, so when I let off, it immediately did a front flip. That is pretty impressive considering how HEAVY it is:redneck:
