Bit more beef to the housing itself. The difference cover is also the same. So my solid cover will continue on.

 

Top is what my new axle stubs look like 05+ 35spline
Middle chromo 35 spline 99-04 super duty
Bottom stock 30 spline super duty 99-04

 

Well...

Artec truss/Ram mount/link brackets ordered
Psc DE ram ordered
High steer on my knuckles done
Bearings and rotors getting redrilled.
Aluminuminum purchased for new lower arms

Just a waiting game now.

:thumb: I think you will be happy with that new axle!

 

I bet if will weigh 200 lbs more then the one it's replacing :sonicjay:

 

I'm guessing I'm adding 40 pounds.

Good work John :woot:

 

Are you going to try and mount your shocks further out and lower on the axle this time around too?

 

Try my best. With this different style axle ends it may or may not work in my favor but I hope to try.

 

Getting some parts back in, still waiting for all the important pieces though.

I did FINALLY get my new shift gate though...

 

My old gate

 

who's shift gate? looks like my winters (though mine is not a RMVB). we did shave down the tab between what would be your 1 & 2 so it's easier to get around

granted my right shoulder is jacked so maybe it's a non issue for a normal person

 

It's a winters/art Carr.

C6 reverse rock crawler

 

looks broken in. :sonicjay:

 

I should get one of them gates too! I have all my gates cut out so I can go first to reverse easy

 

I did that to mine also but kept the nubs where the gates were so I can feel it while driving. I am going to file them down a little more though because it does get hung up on them a little.

 

I wanted reverse to 1st unobstructed. But have Park blocked. I couldn't file my old gates to have that.

 

Makes sense.

I was thinking about moveable gates, maybe 2 small allen heads to retain each one. But once you got it how you want it there is no need to change it.

 

Do you have plans for the old axle outer stuff?

I have an extra 14B that might become a steering axle.

 

I have the c's, knuckles, spindles, rotor/hubs, caliper brackets. Have a buy interested in those pieces. If it falls through I'll let you know

 

Yeah wasn't concerned with neutral just want to be able to slap between 1-r and r-1 in a hurry if needed. But making sure I couldn't accidentally get Park.

 

So I shortened the long side 4"s. The stock shaft measures 39.01“

Turns out a Chevy Dodge shaft measures 35.10". So I ordered up a yukon inner.

"should" fit. Be sweet if it did. Won't need custom shafts.

 

That makes it easy.

 

What are you gonna run for stub shafts and drive flanges. I looked and couldn't find anything other than stock stubs. Brian broke the stock lockouts and we got drive flanges from rock solid but I think they closed up shop?

 

Yep, stock for labor day club comp unless I find something before then. Haven't had any luck finding flanges yet.

For now, stock stubs and stock short inner and yukon inner long side. Spicer joints and full circle clips.

Rcv eventually.

 

for labor day club comp

:woot:


:naughty:

I've got yukon 35 spline stuff (my spares) if you need to borrow something (for 79 ford kingpin d60)

 

Yea rcv were pricey for super 60 way more expensive than normal 60 rcv. I don't see the point with stock lockouts though they will be first to go. I might be able to get some drive flanges cut if you need them

 

Flanges before rcv. Price I got for rcvs was same for this axle as was for the 89.

This isn't a true "super 60".

 

First parts of the rebuild show up tomorrow.
