I was afraid you'd say that. I lurk there, but I don't have an account. S10 guys have a bad reputation there as being dirt poor ********.
yes easy. but wht would you waste your time with a d30? at least find a d44
pirate sucks, it has sucked for several years. it has sucked so bad, they made a new pirate to get away from all the suckiness. here is the link irate4x4
he could run the uppers out at the edge of the axle and the bottom in the middle of the axle
Possibly, but he specifically asked about the upper links.
I've run into irate4x4, I always wondered if it was related, so problem solved on that on.
I'm considering all options. I have little time to do custom fabrication, as well as lacking most of the tools and experience. I just want to throw something other than IFS, so for now, when I get back, I'll throw the YJ D30 (high pinion) and explorer 8.8 underneath and weld perches above to go spring over. In the future, time and money permitting, I'd like to go with a squarebody Dana 44, and a rear 14BFF, SM465 paired to Dana 20 (this is just what I happen to have purchased already) but I would like to better suspension at least in the front. The only downside I foresee is throwing a lot of money at it with hydro steering and fabrication for a 4 link. I guess we'll see, maybe my dreams will stay dreams.
military? contractor? where ya at / what'cha doin?
EXTREMELY arrogant dudes that forgot they were a noob at one point. I've had two wranglers myself, I would say the best things have to offer are 1) solid axles, better models can be sourced from old pickups, 2) manual transmissions, same as point 1, and 3) the (full) removable top, which were available on previous older models, but can't be easily grafted on to something else. I still haven't thrown the idea of cutting my roof off to make a GM made jeep.
Military, Europe, doing security wherever they send me to until I leave.
air force security forces? do you need anything? im sure youre in a pretty cushy spot, but, i you need something, just give a shout. plenty of us in here have dealt with being in the suck for many years..
I appreciate it, but I am in a very cushy spot, currently. I'm a Hospital Corpsman in the navy, doing a job with navy security forces, but the local Marine unit has asked to borrow me (USMC has used navy medical, Religious, and dental personnel since the beginning) which is fine, I've spent 10 years stationed with them until a few years ago, but they might go out on a $#!+ hit the fan mission, son we'll see what happens. Thank you for thenofferz though.
