Backspacing, U-joints, questions....

[ezoliver]

Want to order my beadlocks ASAP... Getting Walker Evans

Do you guys have a recommended backspacing?
I am running a D60 up front and 14 bolt out back will be putting 39.5x13.5x17's on.

Also want to order my Atlas II ASAP...

Think I have settled on running 1350 joints, but should I run CV shafts front and rear and go with a flange setup on the t-case? Or do you guys recommend something else? I have about 6" of lift over stock height.

THANKS!

all i can say is have you read your eye's out till thay are ready to fall out ?

few big buys planed i see . make sure its what you want.

and before you order search a few big boards like us and pirate4x4 and others for deals from vendors and other members for private sale. i have found some smokin deals for around 1/2 price. so saving money is always good. http://www.craiglook.com/index.html

some of my stuff was kind of impulse buys and wished i had read more and asked questions. hopethis helps a lot. and good luck we want build pics.

I have 3.25" bs on my Allieds. Seems to work well. I know Adventurous4x4 on here runs the Walker Evans beadlocks. In the 17" variety I am pretty sure you are good with up to 5" bs. All depends on overall stance you are looking for.

I run a 1350 CV rear shaft and it works well. 1350 isn't great for a bunch of angle at the pinion up front. If you are droppin some big $$ for shafts go 1410.

I ran 2.75" w/15x8's and I think I'm running 3.25" now with 15x10's both on 42" IROKs.

I love it, wouldn't change it, but it's wider than most go with.

I wanted to keep stuff tucked in a bit more...

I ordered up the beadlocks with a 4" backspace.

Ordered my Atlas II with 5:1 low and flanges for 1350 CV's front and rear. (with the disk e-brake on rear output!)

Bought my 39.5 IROK radial tires and will be picking them up Wednesday.
