M1009 Standard Shift Build(The Greatest Adventure)

Thanks!

I haven't been able to find weld on spring perches for the 14 bolt semi float. DIY has them for the FF. I don't know who else makes this stuff.

Call Kert, he will cut them for the tube diameter on the 14sf....
Also Ruff Stuff Specialties...

The FF and SF should be the same axle tube diameter

This is a still shot from the video when we were driving out of the creek.

How can I see the video?

Sounds epic, can't wait!

I hope so. It's not my footage. The guys who rescued me were going pro with front and rear mounted cameras.

So are you getting axles or what?

 

[Richcz28]

I'm hoping to grab that 14 bolt semi float I posted up earlier.

 

[AJMBLAZER]

Get a front?

 

[Richcz28]

I'm only looking for a rear.

 

[Richcz28]

Alright, I made it home and will update pictures and everything soon, but first things first. Chinese Food!

Thought you needed a 3.42 geared front?

Thought you needed a 3.42 geared front?

My thought process at the moment is to pick up this axle. Get it all cleaned up and get the new spring mounts etc. on. Then I will run the 3.42 rears and see if I like them.

The last picture is the beginning of the creek I sunk in. As you can see the water is almost stationary.
