Time to Truss (No more bent housings for me!!!). 2"x4" 0.120 wall square tubing will be used. This will go on top of the axle. The axle tubes are beefy already with 0.50" wall, but I saw a Dodge in a desert race make a smiley face outta his front axle with the same tubes. If I bend this axle, there's going to be a lot more wrong with the rig than just bent axles!!! Let's not find out!!!!
Cougar, I too like desert racing, and rockcrawling. Somthing about pitching the back out around a big long curve in the middle of the desert just makes me smile... I could see trussing it, cause bent tubes are definely no fun. In fact I was on the way up to my friends house friday, and as I was bouncing along his 9 mile long dirt drive way to the middle of narnia, I started wondering how hard the potholes and massive washboard is at 50mph on my rear axle His roads the closest thing i got to dirt racing unless i pack my ass up and head to Nevada, so I tend to have my fun, go fast, and get a lil' sideways... What kind of hard abuse did you put to the axle when you realized your tubes were bent? Do you think some hard washboard could bend em?
