Carnage is one of those trails that is hard to get recovery rigs on if you break.  The entrance and exit are both tough.  I wouldn't suggest running it with stock birfields or small, bald tires (ask me how I know  )  Be prepared to take a ton of damage to your rig and possible drivetrain damage.  It took 5 of us last summer 12 hours to complete the .9 mile trail.  We had multiple breaks that took quite a bit of time to fix (hard to find a flat spot to work under the rig). 

I'm not trying to scare you off but it's a very tough trail and could end up being a very very long day on the trail trying to recover a broken truck.

Oh man you just got me so excited.
I plan on being ready to run that trail by the jambo. I should be locked front and rear with 30 spline longs, and im hoping to bob and dovetail by then as well. the only thing I wont have that I want are dual cases. But I should probably start collecting spare parts as well.

Thats awesome! I hope to make it out that way one day....a good buddy of mine lives like 10 minutes from the entrance

Lucky buddy!  I love that area of CO!  Get ahold of me when you make it out!

I'm sooooooooooo pumped for that weekend!  I've been planning it for about 3 months now.  I've sent out hundreds of PM's here, on YT, CO4x4, and CoTTORA getting the word out about the Jambo!

Dual cases would be nice for that trail   I couldn't imagine running it without them.  Your clutch will be hating life   The bob and dove tail will help with the body damage!  I forgot, do you have a good set of sliders?  You'll be using them.

O-Baby talk dirty to me  . you keep getting me all existed, making hard work to hear   

[jarboarder1]

Im getting the sliders on right now
My clutch already hates me 
I really want to get duals I just dont think i can get the money. and I could ask for an adapter for x-mas or something 
Well I guess we will just have to wait and see how far I get on the truck by then and then decide if I should run it or not.

Don't go broke trying to get your truck ready to run Carnage this August.  We can always go back and run it later.  Honestly, I don't want to see you wrecking your truck so take this as a buddy giving you some friendly advice.  I don't think I've ever try Carnage without some kind of dual cases.  I've seen a truck similar to yours on Liberty (37's, 5.29's and a stock case) and it was a tough day for him.  Lots of clutch slipping and burnt clutch smells.  I'll have some open seats if you want to ride with me or you can go run another trail in the area (tons of them to pick from).

You'll be perfectly fine on Chinamans so that's a for sure trail we'll run!

LOL you can say that again.

[jarboarder1]

yeah I hear you. I should probably wait until I get Duals. I just really want to run that trail.

[854RUN]

its not going anywhere we can all go back and run it again when you get duals. Hey i have a spare t/c it your for $75 if you wont it

[COToy91]

is that tcase topshift?

[854RUN]

no not any more and it 21 spline. i got it because it was a top shift and i needed the rails (turbo t/c are forward shift) so i swapped the rails and now i have a spare t/c i can use.

[jarboarder1]

thanks but Im going to try and find a couple top shift t-cases.

I would recommend Scotty at Addicted Off Road or you can contact my buddy Terry (Member of the Rockfrogs, he did my gears) at [email protected].  If you email him, tell him Aaron from the Rockfrogs recommended him.  He's in West Denver.

OK people question I'm looking at getting a (oh how I hate to say this ) a 1986 Jeep wrangler i know why a Jeep but I'm gonna put in a ford 302 a W56-C trans a the gear drive T-case. I'm also gonna flip the diff by swapping axle tubes and a spring over axle. so I'm having a few problems, first does any one know where to get a 302-W56 adapter, and i have no clue how to pull the axle tubes any one know?

[COToy91]

wow wrong place budy

[GJToyotabug]

I know I'm just trying to see if any one in this state

[COToy91]

i have a w56 bellhousing for a 350 or 4.3L chevy for sale, non boat anchor *cough* ford 302 *cough*

And they are C clip axles you have to take the diff cover off pull the cclip and they will fall out on there own its a jeep thing

No such thing as an 86 Wrangler.  85 was the last year of the CJ and 87 was the first year of the Wrangler (grew up liking Jeeps, dad has owned 3 and my brother owns a built YJ)

[COToy91]

oh and i met  854Run today and we did a small trail outside of town to see what is and is not working. Well all i can say is i have some work to do. Great guy by the way

so how do you pull the axle tubes apart I know it can be done I just dont know how

[COToy91]

the tubes attached to the housing? is that what you are asking or are you asking about the axles?

[GJToyotabug]

yep thats it

[854RUN]

Yep we meet up and ran hidden valley trial. I think it took 20min to go up the trail and 60min to come down ( thats when are problems started), really short but good a nuff to find out what i need to be fixed. The passenger coil popped out twice so i need a bigger retainer to hold it in the top "bucket". COtoy91 has a supper clean truck and a sick flat bed. Had a great time.
