BigMike, do you have a detailed post explaining the swap?
It's funy, I talked to Marlin in 2002 when I was out that way and he was testing the Axle . Was having toubles with it, and said it was Junk. however he is still running it.
Yea 2 weeks to do the swap I can see that. it's the extras you decide that you might as well do while your into it that kill you.
But I hear rumors that Marlin is going to revert back to a stock axle and run our chromolly axle shafts. I hope he uses some 2" wheel spacers or something, do an IFS conversion kit or something...... he's gonna miss all of that width!!!
it doesn't look like he is that much wider
For the record, I'm about 5" wider rather than 1.5". You have to consider the increase in rim width (10 vs 5.5 for stock wheel). Stock wheels have roughly 0.5" positive offset. 10" wide rim (w/3" BS) has a negative offset of 2". Stock track width is 55.6" and I'm at approx. 61"
Ah, thanks for the heads up. In that case, Marlin's truck would be like a 65" or 66"??
Marlin, it's time to PIMP YOUR RIDE!
Bed and body in position...
Ok, I'm curious...what's up with the 1980's roll bar?
i heard that the 80's roll bar is an air tank
