Full Width axle kit?
« on: Aug 21, 2006, 05:06:51 PM »
I was looking for a company that makes the kit for full width axles and couldn't remember which ones they are. What are their names and website if you know and if they are any good or not. Thanks, Kane Smith, jkanesmith@hotmail.com
Make it or break it! (I usually break it)

if you use the sky mfg. spring hanger (I did and would again) I suggest plating/boxing in the bottom lip as it gets hung up and bent easily.

they were great to deal with though.  :thumbs:
you could always make your own though- not that tough   :twocents:
I'm going yota JUST so I can buy from Marlin more.

I believe they are going to start boxing those hangers in so they can't bend anymore.  I sent them an e-mail but haven't heard back from them and I need a new front hanger soon.


If you would like to help save the Rubicon, send money to the Rubicon Trail Foundation

Do you need a full width hanger or a drop hanger for a Toyota.  If a drop hanger, then just buy it from Marlin online.
