My rear axle bearings and knuckles service kit was junk. But that was 2 years ago.
I sure wish marlins prices would come down and then offer the same qty of cool items on the solid axle swap that trail gear offers... (such as knuckle service kit, wheel bearing kit, axle truss and armor, greasable shackle bolts)..... then saving $450 on top of that... makes it hard to justify not getting it through trailgear.. and yes I have read the arguments and have also spoken to people who run trail gear on there vehicles now.. and with people I talk to locally that are happy with their products just about makes it worth the risk of getting their products and running them...
so you think marlin should sell quality, made in America parts for the same price that TG sells their outsourced knockoff parts? ya that would be pretty cool, maybe sears will start selling craftsmen tools for the same price harbor freight sells their pittsburgh junk for.look at a pair of marlins high steer arms next to some of those TQ arms and tell me you dont see a difference in size and quality.their is a difference between craftsmanship and cargo ship and that is where that extra money goes, not too hard of a choice for me
Last Spring, I tried and tried to buy a Marlin axle rebuild kit with wheel bearings. They kept saying the parts were on the ship or something like that. I ended up buying the Trail Gear kit, simply because of the availability. So far so good... Now, I'm looking to buy a dual adapter. I would like to buy Marlin, but if they say that there is gonna be a long wait, I may go with Trail Gear. Isn't the MC07 made by Advanced Adapter? What about the MC08?
