This is the basic kit essential for an Axle swap, more items could be added but this is the bare minimum, You will receive 1 pair of our 3/8" thick A50 Steel U-Bolt plates with 3 pin mounting options, a pair of our Spring Perches with the same pin option to match, 4 - 10" x 5/8" U-Bolts with 1/4" thick cut washers and real Ubolt Tallnuts, and a pair of Shock Brackets and the shock brackets are 1/4". This will get your Axle under the rig. BTW, this is NOT a Chinese made product that just can't hang with the big kids, this IS the Big Kid.

These go for $110 a kit before the Discount!

BTW, our Ubolts are the correct size for your Axle, not 1 size fits all.......

We are selling about 40 of these a week!

I really had no idea of the amount of people swapping axles........everyday, 8-10 more, Thanks CK5!
 
I got you your kit, everything looks good, however the holes are to small for the spring pins. I have drilled them out to 9/16. Im not sure if this is large enough yet but is it normal to have to drill them out to size?

Also love your stuff very beefy
 
We have to make them to fit a whole slew.......

Of rigs, they begin with a .52" hole to fit springs with a .5" pin and its an easy thing to make them bigger but you don't want to have to make them smaller again....And we all know how bad a sloppy hole can be......
 
Nevermind. I checked out your website - question answered. Guess I should have checked there first.
 
Thanks, looking forward to it......

I always like to see our stuff in use.

This swap is the best deal going for the strength, size, & quality. 4 Ubolts threaded 5" (rolled threads, not cut), 5/8" diameter, grade 8 with hardened washers and tallnuts, 2 Ubolt plates 3/8" thick, 2 Antiwrap spring perches cut for the axle you are using and not something you need to trim to fit (don't do perches with lift, they contribute to wrap), & a pair of our shock brackets! All for $110 BEFORE the discount!

Check for everything before you decide........Our Ubolts have always been $12.50 but after the discount they are $11.25, suprise!
 
Added a couple more to the group!

We now make all the parts for the 3.5" D70 or Sterling rear swap and the D60 GM front & also for the D60 Ford front swap kits!

Its really kind of crazy, we are now making 14 different Spring Perches & 6 different Ubolt Plate's.......
 
Do you make the axle swap kit for the D70HD wit 4" tubes?
 
How did I miss this one?

This is one of our most popular items, available in any combination for what your putting together!


And I am sorry we do not yet make one for a 4" tube, our biggest is for the 3.5" D70 and Sterling axles.......
 
These and our 14 bolt brake brackets.......

Are just about the 2 most purchased things we sell!

Along with just about any Diff cover.....:wink1:
 
A little known secret about our Swap Kits!

You can add a diff cover to the kit you want a a big discount!



:wink1:
