Full Foot Notch, Version 3, Rockwells and more

[explorerofdeath]

god this truck is takin forever

I know how you feel buddy. My project started back in early 2002 and it's still not done... From the look of the photos, in this thread, you've done quite abit. Keep up the good work...

pics of hte truck gettin worked on, the rear chunk has to come out due to the bowl being filled with what can only be described as thick pudding, so yeah, more time and money, but hey, i paid for a pullout axle and thats what i got.

the ranger in this pic is owned by the guy working on my truck, its a ranger with a 460 motor, and those are 44 boggers but it is usually on R1 tractor tires, it goes damn near anywhere

What are you doing for you front drive shaft since the rockwell is on the left side....

 

[james t]

What are you doing for you front drive shaft since the rockwell is on the left side....

You can turn the center chunk around.

 

[Burns]

You can turn the center chunk around.

Oh this is good info for me....

 

[full foot notch]

yeah, but its a PITA to drill all the holes to turn the chunk around, plus the case drops on the correct side, so its all good

 

[Burns]

so how was your experience with usa6x6 were they as good as there web site claims

 

[j602]

Get on pirate and ask about USA6x6.

 

[full foot notch]

yeah, my experience with USA6x6 was great, designed what i wanted, always kept me informed, competitive prices

and J602, everyone on pirate hates him due to old instances, but when the TTC trucks are runnin some of his rims he must be doin somethin right

Thanks for replyin> I got on Pirate and there was just to much crap to go through so i was just waiting on what you thought.....Do you have any info on the rockwell axles themselves...I am planning on making a front/rear coiled project....

 

[full foot notch]

I was looking on the widths and weights shaft sizes just doing my homework......

I looked over that site before and i finally found what i was looking for...

Where did you get your axles???

 

[full foot notch]

i got my axles from chucks trucks, i got mine for $1350 total, pullout condition, he now only sells them as rebuilt, so hence his higher price, but its nice because they do all the BS work that takes forever to do and pretty much breaks even(figure 200 in new bearings all around, $160 in wheel seals, $40 in new right hand studs, flushing the chunk and the bowel, $40 in boots)

 

[Burns]

USA6X6 sells them like the for 1400 for the front axle and 800 for the rear...Is this a good rate for them

 

[j602]

That's cool, I'm just going by the majority report.

 

[explorerofdeath]

USA6x6...

My exploder is still in the works but the rims I ordered through USA6x6 turned out really nice. They have good people working there.
