items needed

looking for lunch box locker for dana 44, also 37" to 39.5 tires for 15" rims or a set of beadlocks with a ford pattern.......

Well, well... Good name. I'm thinking that your not going to find a Dana44 locker here. But I will check around the local VA boards.

I can make a set of weld on beadlocks for offroad use & might have lunchbox locker out of D44 chevy

the lunch box sounds fine for now.....the beadlocks sound good but im planning on driving it around to........its street legal.....but not sure how the local popo would think about it with the beadlocks......anyways im heading to boston for the rest of the week and i pick the bronco up on the last friday of the month so if you have the locker available by then i dont see why i wouldnt want it let me know how much. also after a run or too probaly throw a detriot in it just waitng too see how the 4.10's do with the auto and the 35's first

The beadlocks i make have been driven on the street before sometimes they will vibrate for insurance reasons i have to say there not street legal

Fuk that I drive mine on the street popo dont no the difference.. Well it is on a Ford so I dont no if I wood even waste the money.

Nice name and nice truck. When did you get that?

thanks picked it up a couple of weeks ago.......loving the cummins ........ ya give me a price on the beadlocks........

I can sell you the weld on kit for about 150 or installed on your wheels for about 300 alot of welding about 50 inches per wheel and i think i have set 15X8 ford wagon wheels laying around that were new but never used they sat outside got alittle rusty 400 installed on those wheels

Chris,
i'll be in touch when i get back from boston next week.......but that sounds good

My shop number is 570-784-3005 you can usually reach from 7AM - 6PM

i'll call u tomorrow, just got picked the rig up friday night.......have somethings that i want done so maybe you can take care of most of them

okay new parts needed
1. 200 - 400 ft of chromo tubing if anyone knows a cheap supplier 1.75-2"
2. 37" to 39" tires
3. beadlocks (chris will get that job on the new rims)
4. dual case and 4.7 gears
5. 2 14-16" coilovers
6. big ass sheet of cutting board material

if anyone sees any of these items for sale on the other boards let me know

Theres no sense in paying for chromoly tubing unless u want to race & make it lighter its not really lighter but stronger so u can use a thinner wall thickness its about 3 times the price of dom

x2 maybe use it on the control arms if your going to 4 link it in the rear. If you ditch those alcan springs let me know.

yes this is going to race and compete so i need the lightness and strength. Nestor (Nester), will make a deal on the alcans and the belly plate . Also need 63" chevy springs for the rear right now.

Comp is a waste unless you building a full out comp rig. So you better just get 60's or build toyota 8's to the hilt. Also I would waste time with the 63" in comp setting cause the departure angles suck ass if your not running 40's. Let me know about that belly ban you got if it works for a doubler I'm all over it. The alcan's might work for me if the are double wrap but not sure if I want to mess with that since the setup I have seems to work and flex well as is.

Do you need to back it with plate or with a good frame structure?

most people plate the back with 1/8" but you could probably get by with a frame if the gaps in between brases aren't to much.

alright headed out to MO. this week to pick up the 60's. Bill i am also picking up a sm465, 205 combo from a chevy....not sure if that helps you in your build but i'll prob not use the tranny or tc....not sure yet......nestor picking up those toys next week also......so the time is near to start cutting and welding the coilovers and airshocks showed up today now just need to find tubing, tires and wheels

what coilovers did you end up going with?
