I kept my link inside the brake and ABS line. I did gently bend the hard line going into the caliper out slightly tk get a little more clearance. So far so good.
Figured out why I was having such shitty flexā¦.front AntiRocks needed to be adjusted. I had the links too high. I went through and adjusted them per the instructions, making them level at half shock suspension travel. Boom, I have flex now.
Need to add about half and inch of bump up front, and...
I installed some EVO shock relocation brackets on the rear shocks to get a little more down travel. I only had 4ā before. Iāll hack off the old brackets and take a couple inches off the control arm mount next weekend.
Now Iām having an issue with my AntoRock away bars. On the ramp, Iām...
I found out that my rear tires were hitting the AntiRocks when flexed out, causing binding and loss of full flex. I solved that with a set of Synergy 1.75ā wheel spacers. I definitely donāt hate the more aggressive look.
Also I just ordered a set of 37ā Nitto Trail Grapplers. Iām getting them...
Iām in the market for tires and I ruled the Baja MTs out due to reports of weak sidewalls and balancing issues. Iām probably going with Nitto Trail Grapplers again. Tough as nails and seemingly easy to balance.
That was my thought on the gusset as well. Between that and ditching the pinion balancer, it looks like it will clear everywhere else. Maybe this weekend I will pull the D44 and do a test fit of the 11.5.
I bought the wrong 14 boltā¦whoops š¬. The port that worries me is the large support casting on the passenger side being too close to the gas tank. The huge harmonic balancer on the yoke will be replaced with a new yoke without the balancer.
Anyone with axle swap experience have any thoughts?
Other than the fact that it looks like a good kit, the main reason Iām going with them is they make a steering kit for a Super Duty D60 swap that they tell me will work with the JL as well (just leave out the SD knuckle spacers/washers on the JL). That way I can upgrade steering now on my D44...
