I am in the process of building a sweet little 22r and got a bad arss deal on a dana 60 rear and soon to have front who else runs a 22r with 42'' tires

jimbo74 · « **Reply #1 on:** Oct 01, 2006, 03:21:45 PM »

a 22r with some power mods and the right gearing in that 60 will be fine for turning 42s

dune_it86 · « **Reply #2 on:** Oct 01, 2006, 03:34:56 PM »

got smokin deal on the rear but i think it is geared too low i was thinkin around 5.89-6.17 the axle that i will be getting has 7.17 gears

I'm running 42" Iroks with a bone stock 22r, runs perfectly fine...

Dana 60 front end with 5.38's and a Corp 14 rear end with 5.38's. Dual 2.28's pull it up anything and everything.

keep the 7.17's. it won't be too low and with a 22r you won't break them. you will only have to buy one set of gears instead of two.

dune_it86 · « **Reply #5 on:** Oct 01, 2006, 05:00:35 PM »

well what about tire speed i wheel in oregon mud and trails and hills think it will still be ok. i was thinkin more of 6.17 will be better

Shamb · « **Reply #6 on:** Oct 01, 2006, 06:28:33 PM »

should be fine, thats what gear selection is for.

chevyLUVtoyota · « **Reply #7 on:** Oct 01, 2006, 06:36:52 PM »

where in Oregon....im on the coast by coosbay...i got a buddy that runs 5.38's and 39.5 boggers and we run it on hwy I-5

IronClad · « **Reply #8 on:** Oct 02, 2006, 01:38:39 AM »

7.17s would be awesome you could actually spin those tires up like they are ment to be

dune_it86 · « **Reply #9 on:** Oct 02, 2006, 05:54:03 AM »

I m from the home of the mud flats sweet home oregon, so it sounds unanamous you guys really like the 7.17 w/42'' PULLED BY A 22R, are the front and read gears the same or is te frot 60 a reverse cut

dune_it86 · « **Reply #10 on:** Oct 02, 2006, 06:02:10 AM »

i have a g-54 tranny i think (86 carb truck 4x4) will it do fine or should i get a w-56, i was also thinking about the toyota cyl. auto (is it weak?)

dune_it86 · « **Reply #11 on:** Oct 03, 2006, 06:07:35 AM »

come on i would love to see your opinions on the trannys will the g-54 be ok should i get a w-56, or is the toy auto the better idea

jkimmel · « **Reply #12 on:** Oct 03, 2006, 09:32:47 AM »

I've got 40's and 5.86 gears in my 60's and wouldn't hesitate to run a 42 on them, my 22r will turn them fine if only they were cheaper than 350 a piece

Hottrod81 · « **Reply #13 on:** Oct 03, 2006, 01:01:33 PM »

Get the W56, it's much stronger.

dune_it86 · « **Reply #14 on:** Oct 04, 2006, 06:30:13 PM »

i was planning on putting them under a formula toy chassie on a toy frame with 16" coilovers but i dont know if i can get enough flex i want this thing to look like an X on the trail.

Shamb · « **Reply #15 on:** Oct 04, 2006, 09:07:09 PM »

yea flex is cool and will make all your friends go "wow look how high that tire is off the ground!" but remember.. one of your main concerns should be stability when you build this rig.. .you dont want to go up a 6ft rock and have the thing unload on you and you flop it or roll down a cliff.

Shamb · « **Reply #16 on:** Oct 04, 2006, 09:14:06 PM »

btw this is a 16" shock completely extended, mounted 10* in and 10* back (back for the front and forward for the rears)

We took 3 guys and couldn't tip it no matter how hard we rocked it.

roughly 60" (5 ft) of articulation before it would pull a tire off the ground

shamb do you have more pics or info on your suspension it would be awsome thanks man

chevyLUVtoyota · « **Reply #18 on:** Oct 05, 2006, 10:42:43 AM »

Hottrod81 · « **Reply #19 on:** Oct 05, 2006, 12:44:56 PM »

This is my build up thread, what specifically do you want to know?

3 link front and rear, upper link is mounted directly in the center of the axle and the lower links are the percentage of the width on the axle. 16" fox air shocks mounted 10 degress inward and 10 degree's backwards for the front shocks and 10 degree's forward for the rear.

dune_it86 · « **Reply #21 on:** Oct 06, 2006, 04:49:20 AM »

i was thinkin about running air shocks cuz there B.A. but i decided to go 16" single rate coilovers, later i will do a dual or tripple rate set of springs ( when money is better

dune_it86 · « **Reply #22 on:** Oct 06, 2006, 05:55:00 AM »

your build up was phenomanal i want my links to be exactly like yours so ny and all info on them u go will be great, and what was your final wheel base cuz i wanted somthing around 110" with 42" tires, I MIGHT HAVE A SLIGHT DELAY ''GOT AN ENGROWN TOE NAIL 2 WEEKS AGO MY 17TH ONE TO BE HONEST SO I PULLED IT WITH NEEDLE NOSE PLIERS AND A POCKET KNIFE AND WELL IT GOT REALLY INFECTED SO I MIGHT HAVE TO GO TO THE DOCTOR CUZ MY TOE IS ABOUT TIMES IT'S NORMAL SIZE AND IS VERY PAINFUL, hopfuly i can get away with not going

Shamb · « **Reply #23 on:** Oct 06, 2006, 08:36:38 PM »

if you plan on going single rate coilovers then your probably going to have alot of body roll, make sure you put a sway bar in the back (atleast)

what size shaft did you plan on running? 2.0's? 2.5's? 3.0's??

i'll be going coilovers in the rear hopefully by the begining of next year, thinking about an 18" shock instead of the 16's

not really sure yet though

i'll get some info together for you and just PM you w/ it.

dune_it86 · « **Reply #24 on:** Oct 06, 2006, 11:47:11 PM »

i am going with a 2.0" shaft i do plan on dual or tripple rate but not right away, since you are thinking about 18'' shocks should i just get those to start with no hassle later, does your builder have some kinda drawing or cad design of your suspension just all the measurments would be awsome instead of an exo'd cab like you have i plan on putting a formula toy chassie on it with more bracing and crossmembers

dune_it86 · « **Reply #25 on:** Oct 08, 2006, 04:53:57 PM »

well my toe still hurts but it is slowly getting better, i think that i might go 4.3 v-6 but i am still not possitive i would still love to mock your suspension and i am leaning twards 18" coil over so if you can get a pice from your builder on he brakets and cross members that would be great i would like to do my own links just the same as yours but beefier( i am a clutz and i'm very hard on stuff) thanks shamb your truck is bad

I ran 5.71's and 39.5 TSL's With a rear Truetrac in a 79 in the Florida mud with a 21RU engine and never had any problems.
