Rear axle flip? I hope you dont intend to flip your axle upside down, Does not work, unless of course you want to go backwards. At least you will be locking it up finally.

Sorry Spring over axle from a spring under axle from a kit from Superlift under 150.00. I was going to do this because of the extra weight from the new rear bumper. Waiting on A few side jobs to pan out then it w.ill ordered

 

[TheRookie]

Dude. Bring your junk here. we can SOA it in under an hour for about 15 bucks.

though remember that unless you have a lot of front lift it will be way slanted. SOA will be between 5 and 5.5 inches lift in back.

Ok assuming the back is close to level with the front as it sits now if you put stock springs back on, then go SOA, you will be almost the exact same rear height you are now, and make no difference. If you dont put stock springs back on and do the SOA the rear will be stupid high. either way its super easy and super cheap.

I just recieved the new rear locker today

 

[yostyexplorer94]

Just purchase a spot to park my explorer at the afn. All I need yet is my driveshaft lengthen, fender flares, and rear shocks to get mine road "legal". Hopefully I can handle that because my progress on the sas has slowed to a crawl recently....

 

[MarkieMark703]

Why not start now? There's always cracks to be cleaned, little dings to touch up, rust spots to prime, dashboards to be polished, vents to be cleaned...

I've been reading to much of Joe Dirts' cleaning thread.

 

[parli22]

We got some work done on the truck yesterday. I know I had a bad rear axle seal turns out it was a bad or overly worn bearing. Change Limited Slip Carrier to an Open Carrier. Installed the new locker in rear. Change the header gaskets to better quality. Got the rear wiper and washer to work as well. and did a coolant flush.


Left SUA to SOA conversion
New Rear Bumper with Tire Carrier if money is available
Paint touch up
Tight Front Axle Nuts and Flush
Full Tune up
Tinker with A/C to get it working
