1994 Explorer XLT
I'm looking for some pics and/or info on how to cut & turn the Explorer TTB On a 1994 XLT. Is there anyone on the list have some done for sale? Or anyone on the list that can do it or can have it done. I would like to have a set I can get a spare set from work and send to someone that can do it. Thanks for any help anyone can give me.

Cut & Turn

I know I posted it in the wrong spot and I fixed it atleast tried to. Why do people got to be smart about things insted of wanting to help someone new out
 






I can't find a good writeup about this anywhere just some bs that dosent really tell me much, and that link dosent work
 


















Those aren't really that great of writeups, gives me an idea of what a cut and turned beam looks like, no good writeups on this that I've missed??? I'm planning on a high budget build next year and glad somebody brought this topic up :)
 






High budget = buy Camburg or Autofab

there are two different ways to cut and turn a beam for lift
near the pivots or aft the balljoint
both require knowing what you are doing and why
every setup is a bit different, lift height, track width, steering, all need to be figured into the design....so there is no real ONE WAY of doing it = no good write ups.

my friend Brett and I cut and turned my beams, it took two sets before we got it right

I would look at Camburg, you can buy some built beams with the balljoint fix built in, trussed, and ready to go for pretty cheap!

I would also heavily consider buying the Autofab dana 44 TTB kit, now that is a great way to go and it uses mostly stock parts = cheap repairs
 






Is that '44 kit a conversion or something?? I'd like something like that even more than cut and turn because it would match the disc 9 inch real good :) a high budget build dosent mean I'm gonna pay 3000 dollars for a set of beams that might take a guy 8 hours to build (assuming he builds lotsa them) 150 bucks worth of steel, and a core charge. I'd rather f*ck up 20 sets of beams myself then pay 3g's, maybe if it was a more reasonable price I'd do it.... Just my .02
