back to actually gaining parts

disc brake brackets,new 5.13 ring and pinion from yukon,hubs, carrier

didnt know it came with rotors,calipers, AND pads, niceeee


the beast



all it needs is some cleaning, a tiny bit of grinding..new bolts,hub lock nut, master install, locker, seals and some time to weld on brackets and it is ready to roll...

[NIK5.9]

Nice, are you going with a Loc-Right or a Detroit?

[zj95maxx]

dunno yet...

[ILikeMud]

Weld that bitch up.

[wheelNC94GC]

Weld that bitch up.

x2 ^^^

[NIK5.9]

I would weld it up or put a spool in it if it was not going to be a daily driver, the rear tires would wear down so fast.

I bought a detroit and some other goodies..pics coming when everything comes in

Wow, spent an hour and a half reading this monster last night...awesome thread/Jeep. Those D60s are beef...I can't wait to see it wearing those.

Quick question, my setup is very similar, do you recall your backspacing with the 12.5" 35s and ~7inches lift on the HP30. And if I remembered right you were running a wheel spacer in the front right? Reason I ask...got a pretty good deal on some wheels with 3.25 BS...I think that might be too much (stick out too far and look silly), but I am having issues with clearance after the step up from 10" 33's on my current wheels (go figure).

Thanks, and keep up the great thread and work.

my 35" all terrains that are on now are 3.75 bs but they are 15x8 so they dont stick out too much at all, the 13.50 wide iroks were on a 10" wheel so they stuck out a good bit more. I like the wider stance, but thats just me.

Thanks. Are your pics with wheel spacers in the front? I remember you did away with the spacers in the rear....but unless I missed something they are still on the front. Yes?

I know spacers have nothing to do with BS, but I like the stance you have wearing 35s. I, however, do not need spacers...so I'm thinking with a bit less BS (the 3.25 BS wheels I can get 'el cheapo) should end up looking close to yours.

Imitation is the Sincerest Form of Flattery Thanks again!

[zj95maxx]

yeah the wheel spacers are 1.75 i believe, spidertrax brand. I think a 3.25 bs wheel would put you right where I am. feel free to ask any ?'s you might have
