To each there own but I would figure a gearset , set of used axle shafts and some brake hardware would be cheaper than another front axle asembly, wheels and tires. I wish 15's where extinct, there all you can find around here.
Have you ever monitored the "3rd" leg on a phase converter durring load/no load switching? Guess what those spikes do to the circutry & transformers in the machine? I use phase convertors on motors only. To each there own though.
Yea but why not run the six lug version????????? Wheels wont interchange between his trailer and truck anyway. I guess I just dont see the reason for axing ever being able to run 15in tires again. There much cheaper and much more availible.
:doh:
101A3 has hmmwv rims right?
Seems like alot of work just to have a little bit larger axle shaft in the rear. You will still have C-clips in the rear and the front will be the EXACT same strength when it comes to turning 37's.
IMO, I wouldnt bother with looking for a 60 to go with that rear axle.
If I where you I would find a 6 lug version of that axle you have (9.5 metric 14 bolt) and swap that in. Leave the front axle alone seing how there will be nothing gained by swaping to a 3/4 ton front other than a lil...
Shure did, The whole less than 5 miles lol. 818 ran perfect. I would of much rather sat around and shot the sh!t more but had to go to work. Man was it cold this morning.
Andy, I can only assume you made it home just fine?
Anyone know who one the cucv's with the boarding ladders at lansing?
I noice a power loss at top end with the C but much more bottom end grunt. This is because the C spools sooner than the D. The D is better for higher speeds though.
Few words of advice, If those horns where on the dodge, Do Not put them on the deuce. Get a new set. Buddy of mine had the same set of stacks in 3 trucks.....all three rolled. Didnt put the stacks in truck 4.....no problems.
