If it's not mud why don't you come try some of the bounty holes down here and make some money. I forgot you might break somthing. I don't dive on the road now till I get double splined shafts for the rear and lock out hubs but don't worry I don't plan to cross the Mason–Dixon line
Running stock power fyi for now have pyro just need to turn fuel
the breaks are more then fine if you keep them adjusted good
have aready done the mud rig many times video of one from last weekend https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=M-0ju3U7PhE
All the axles have spools and front has upgrade shafts...
If one of the shafts in the tranny are snaped from now on when beating the truck I will have the transfer case in low and the transmission in a higher gear so the shafts in the transmission don't have as much toqurqe going through them
If it just sheared a key way that would be nice but would that make the output have a lot of play. At first I was thinking keyways till I found the slopy output.
i will be pulling the cover next weekend either way unless it's somthing small and it isn't. i will be looking for a 3052 trans to get it back together for a event coming up. Yes I understand when you beat a truck as hard as I do it might break but then again it's only a toy if it breaks I fix/...
Update my steering gear box exploded last month see pics I have already replaced it had to jack up the front of the motor to replace it undid the two front motor mount bolts and jacked it up 6'' or so. The steering works good as new if your strong enough!
This weekend took it out to a mud...
Yes with hubs in or out you can run duals it will make the truck crazy wide is the only neg of running duals and hubs flipped out.
Yes I will be buying a set of lug nuts for the rear before to long
http://youtu.be/1WPSYhln-zY you can see I have one tire flipped out in the video how wide the...
One side as in driver side hubs have marine and passenger side hubs have red high temp. When I had a rockwells under a jeep it did not have wheel brakes and never seen the highway. I used marine even when water got in them it did not bother them as much but it was a low mile slow speed jeep.
Got all my tires fixed and own a spare now!
got 3 hubs flipped so far using one of my rear inside lug nut the square one to drive the studs out is working very easy. the only snag I hit one of the lug nuts square ends got twisted off trying to get the tire off! I Have never welded using the 2...
after the holidays i will be getting some mrap wheels and adapters. This weekend i got the fuel pump fixed never has worked and the starter working!! After reading post on common fixes. The pump just needed a new fuse one 10 amp fuse works perfect now. Last time mudding the truck starter...
I just hope this is a freak thing
i have put a lot of miles on my old NDT that looked like trash cracking all over bald flat spots from locking up the brakes previous owner and almost never had any trouble out of them!
That's what I read I bet I could of ordered a new one and had the same result. I had 2 days till the next big mud bog not enough time too ordered one so I removed the spring and ran it for 3 hard days like that never got over 130/140 on days that where 100+ deg. That was alittle on the cold...
My truck has always ran on the hot side. I replaced the leaking water pump and roded out the radiator and resealed. The work I did made a huge difference. 180/190 at idle and on the highway 200/210 if that's all I used my truck for that would be ok with me but I mud and rockcrawler on the...
Pics of the tire that fell apart one side looks perfect the other destroyed. All my tires where made between 2002/2007. How much air are you guys running in the tubes is 40 enough to keep the tube from moving in the tire?
My trucks also has a moded thermostat
They are all old pics besides the tires. Been wanting to start a build thread so I figured I wounde post pics of ever thing I have got done so far. By thue way I always change gear oil in the axles and grease in the hubs ever time I sink it like in the pic before heading home! My new boots...
Thanks for the info keep it coming yeah I was thinking the tube got a bad leak for some reason causing the sudden blow out.
I dint think I would ever spend the money for new rims but this might change my mind!
just glad I did not kill any one !
