well i got a another tranny today from goose here on the board. that was awesome. i got it up in there tonight and tomorrow the duals will go back in. after that ill fill everything up with oil and cruise it down to the shop and flex it out the fork lift to so i can limit the front travel so the u-joints in the DL dont break again up front. when pulling everything out tonight i also noticed my front range crossmember was broken. no big surprise since every friend of mine thats owned one has broke it. so i reinforced it all tonight and it should hold up a lot better now.

here is how it looks all done. id like to plate the other side but my exhaust runs right below the left side so i cant plate there till i get it redone.

where exactly did the x-member break? i am thinking about ordering one soon. bad idea maybe?

Sluice Box Hero · « **Reply #1625 on:** Apr 09, 2009, 04:40:50 PM »

no, they are a great idea, and i highly reccomend one to anyone, but you will nee to beef it up like shown here, or a lot of other threads. they just arent strong enough by themselves, but once they are gusseted, and plated up they are awesome.

ok thanks for the info!

bottom hole on the right, its the most common spot for failure.

mine looks a little different cause i cut mine out so i could have it clear the floor for the flat belly.

this is what it looks like though cut out.

88Rokyoat · « **Reply #1632 on:** Apr 10, 2009, 04:54:48 PM »

how is the new tranny? did you get it all in?

I put 4.88s in mine and it is SO much better to drive. Go figure...

Hyena · « **Reply #1633 on:** Apr 10, 2009, 07:13:52 PM »

Sluice Box Hero · « **Reply #1634 on:** Apr 10, 2009, 07:40:46 PM »

5th gear pops out like 1st did in the other tranny. . . kinda gay, but whatever.

Looking good guys! Those tires a looking a little low. What's the trailer rated for?

boggerunner · « **Reply #1640 on:** Apr 16, 2009, 10:38:00 PM »

X2 those tires look pissed!

Hyena · « **Reply #1641 on:** Apr 16, 2009, 10:55:04 PM »

they are buying new 10 ply tires for it tomorrow.

kiyul4130 · « **Reply #1642 on:** Apr 17, 2009, 12:15:30 PM »

tires are on it. we just have to lift the fenders up 4-5 inches cause there bigger than the old ones.

gotrocks · « **Reply #1643 on:** Apr 17, 2009, 02:41:48 PM »

That was a wise investment to buy new tires that are 10 ply. I had a trip where I blew 3 tires out and couldn't find a spare that I was willing to buy. I was stuck in a little town for the night and some shop wanted 280 for 1 tire and it wasn't even a trailer tire. Needless to say I found some old guy who had a shop and he sold me 2 used spares for 50 bucks and put them on for me.

After that suck ass trip I bought 6 new 10 ply bias trailer tires and have 2 brand new spares. Thankfully my trailer has triple 7000# axles. Its a very nice peace of mind when I'm towing out in the middle of no where, I know that if worse come to worse I can just let one axle hang and make it somewhere on 2 axles.

well i messed around with the front bumper today and im not sure if i like it or not. what do you guys think of the plates with speed holes? i might take them out....not sure.

kiyul4130 · « **Reply #1648 on:** Apr 18, 2009, 10:09:15 PM »

by the way here are some better pictures with a little more light from yesterday evening. we pulled the trucks on and off it 3 or 4 times now. well mine. we had to lift the fenders 3" so the tires wouldnt rub and then reinforce them cause my tires sit right on top of them.

the five OH is just about buttoned up as well....

he got some beadlocks for it.
