Garage radio? I have cable tv piped into my garage!
Now that's a good idea. Then my wife would stop getting upset when I'm listening to NASCAR in the garage and then come running into the house and yell Quick, turn on the Speed Channel, Gordon just slammed into the wall.
Poor wife and kids would never see me again.
Darn I love that 4 link and it's only been a few days.
While I was adjusting the links for exact same lengths...which is so simple with the R and L threads, I pushed the axle another inch forward and cranked up the coils a little also.
Going to check out to see if this one company makes a constant velocity joint instead of those U-joints in those front D44 axles. That would be such an increase in strength. The more a u-joint is angled the less strength it has. If you could map one of those u-joint caps it moves in a strange pattern, something like a figure eight.
That's why a smaller u-joint can be as strong as a larger one as long as it's not flexed as much.
I heard that the CV D44 axles then are about as strong as the 60 series with the constant velocity joints.
Under strength tests it failed only within pounds of the 60s.
And it would be so much smoother in the locked position or even unlocked.
