I might be able to squeeze it in. right now he's planning on backpacking instead, and I was planning to tag along, but im not sure what exactly his plan is.

Put your back pack in a truck and drive the truck. Back packing.

Anyone have a set of axles and hub assemblies from a 01 or newer ranger? I'm trying to get my 4x4 back in action.

 

[Rowdy Fitzgerald]

Maybe in 6 months I will. I'm gonna SAS my black 99.

Nope. Won't work. That's what I have. I need a newer one. I'm gonna sas mine but not till I move back up north so I just wanna have 4x4 till I do it.

 

[Rowdy Fitzgerald]

Gotcha. What axel you gonna use?

I have a full width high pinion kp 60 from an 80s ford and an old 60 ff rear axle that's welded for now. Need to gear then and lock the front. Really want an ox locker for the front. Won't be doing the build for at least 6 months to a year tho...

Oh very nice! I'd like to run tons but a 44 with chromos is just as strong and way lighter, easier to find.

My girl is coming along nicely. I should get paid on Tuesday so I'll be ordering ballistic coil buckets and a ruff stuff track arm kit. She's settin on 38.5's right now and she gets the death wobble around 45. My track arm has 1/8" - 1/4" of play so I'm gonna cut it out and mount it behind the axel to clear the track arm.

Yeah I decided I want to go up to tons because I want to run something in a 40" range and I want it to be bullet proof. Also want 5.38s so with the 44 the pinion is tiny and has very little contact with the ring gear.

I also already have new fox 14 inch air shocks, I just need to move back up north where I have a place to work on it. BTW your truck looks damn good. I love those fenders. I have a set of front glass for min when I sas it.

 

[Rowdy Fitzgerald]

That makes sense. Yeah 5.38's would be very weak. Are you runnin a doubler?

Thank you! I'm runnin 38.5x14's right now. I'm sure I'll be replacing front shafts soon but I'll just buy chromos when that time comes.
