WFO9,
Thanks for being
POSITIVE!! We're super pumped to complete this build and show the "Garbage Commenters" what's up.
What axle widths did you go with WMS to WMS?
<br><br> We're still playing with exact widths, the front is a Spidertrax SPN68C35T 68"<br><br>
What diffs? What gear ratios planned? What lockers?
<br><br> Hi9 in the Front, 5.13's ARB's front and Rear<br><br>
Looks like Dana outters? Manual hubs? Why not Toyota balls and RCVs? (because 40s?)
<br><br> We chose this hub type because it will allow us to retain ABS functionality (A LOT more on that soon, I promise) I prefer manual hubs to computers doing things for me

<br><br>
What steering box? Hydro assist I assume?
<br><br> I'm sure there's a box in mind.. As I'm writing this I can't find that info.. Hydro for sure!<br><br>
What transfer case? This build begs for at least 4:1
<br><br>We are going to use the stock T-Case at first, see how we like it.. Might do a Doubler

<br><br>
Sticking with driver side drop?
<br><br> Yes, the goal here is to build a daily driven "Rock Crawler" and not change the drive train too much<br><br>
How is the abs being addressed?
<br><br> It took a little R&D but we've tested our theory and it works, essentially the truck will retain the factory ABS tone ring and sensor. Once that portion is complete I will post it.<br><br>
keeping stock gas tank and basic rear link setup?
<br><br> Plan on keeping the stock tank, again we want to keep everything else as stock as possible. As far as I know rear mounts will be used with custom arms.<br><br>
40s is really going all out. I would be totally happy on 37s :tape:
<br><br> Originally, we planned on running 37's and I might on the street for MPG and sanity reasons!<br><br>
Any plans to exo cage it or something. If the truck is actually going to be used to what it is being built to be capable of... the body is going to get destroyed pretty fast...
<br><br>Yes, we are going to protect (most) of the body!<br><br>
