Re: full size axles on a DD?

My buddy has a danna 44 up front and a T-100 rear axle with 39.5 iroks. He has a flatbed but no flared fenders or anything. In the back he set up his own quick release mudflaps but he has none up front. Before the iroks, he used to daily drive it in Chico, and make routine trips on the freeway and commuted a lot. At that time he was running 35s. He has never gotten pulled over. Now, the iroks have only been on about a month so we will see. I have a feeling they will ride his ass about having wider fenders up front. Its a wide truck, but has everything it would (logicaly and reasonably) need to be to pass law enforcement regulations(but we all know how them coppers work).

If anything, they will just hassle you a little. I think as long as you arent exceeding the frame-to-ground height limit for your truck's weight range, you should be fine. He has been driving it with fullwidth axles for over a year though, and considering how many richard cops there are here I am still amazed they havnt at least stopped him just to see what they could get him for. Cant help you with the axle question because im not quite sure what you are asking. Search around the Buildups forum, a lot of guys run those axles so looking at what other people have done should give you some more insight. Hope this helps. Take it easy
