disciplerocks's B2 build thread

has the d35 really gave you problems? how often? will it benefit you enough to pay for the d44 knuckles?

the d35 sucks ass depending on what your running....very very maintenance intensive with bigger tires and power if you run alot of miles.

with sensible tires they rock.

Cheap place to get moog joints http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/raframecatalog.php

I picked some ball joints up today. Gonna try something a bit different. I'll let you all know if it works out.

Also finally got some garage time in finally. Checked the compression on the Focus and as I thought, cylinder 1 is low. Time to get moving on my head swap.

Also disassembled the doubler, fixed the 4lo issue, and swapped in 1354 shift fork and sun gear so I can use the 6 gear planetary set.

Almost fully assembled. Ran out of RTV.

And I pulled the winch out of the box to have a look. Makes my 3k look puny.

How well did the 3000lb winch work and did it ever really fail to get you out of a situation?

The only tim I used it was on the flop. Used it to keep me from rolling down the hill while getting flipped from the other direction

:icon_confused:
What is it? You know some people that don't know you are going to read this and say WTF. And some that do know you :icon_rofl:

 

[disciplerocks]

Hope to have a day next week to change them. They already have me coming in 3 days next week (our holiday week). I'll take the triple time.

 

[disciplerocks]

Doubler is complete. Everything is sealed, locktighted, and the d-case is filled with fluid.

1354E - t-case
1350M housing with 1354 internals and planetary - d-case
1354 front yokes on both ends

you should be....D44 knuckle swap and some adapters for the rear axle and you would be set:icon_thumby:

l8r, John

 

[disciplerocks]

If they weren't 2 hours away I would probably get them and some adapters. But at the moment I don't know when I can find 4 hours to go get them.

 

[dangerranger83]

Cheaper to ship them or drive and spend the gas money if time can be found?

 

[86 slo-vo]

Fawk those are cheap.

 

[97TrailRigDD]

If I had the money I would.

Driveshafts and t-case removed in a half hour. Doubler installed in 3 hours.

Unfortunately I measured something wrong and the rear driveshaft is about an inch too long. I jacked up the rear to fit it on, but I am going to have another shortened when I have my front shaft made.

I got up at 2am and worked a 12 hour shift too. I'm fukin tired.
