Iron Rock Off Road 8.8 Diff. Truss

motorbill87 · 02-28-2012, 05:38 PM

Just incase anyone was wondering or was planning on purchasing one I figure I'd put in my 2 cents...........

The delivery was pretty quick. I believe it came from Montana and i'm in TX, only took 4 days for delivery so that was good. the over all finished product is a fair to ok deal for $150. it does NOT wsit flush across the top of the diff housing, only on the very top about 6-8". and it sits end to end right on top of where your spring perches should be. oh and who ever did the seam welds on these things was possibly an apprentice of Hellen Keller.

Other than all that it looks cool and does add strength to the axle tubes so thats about the only + I could give it. If i still had acess to my friends fab shop back in FL I could definately 1 up these guys but oh well. at least it looks cool i guess
