Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

Long post to come…

ok, if its too bad i guess i can get an adjustable one from summit.

That was the plan when I did the wife’s. So far so good, stops great no prop valve mods.

After pulling 3 consecutive valves, and as we are walking in the door to pay for everything, I ask Colin, "You did check to make sure all those ZJ's had disc brakes, right?"
His response was "uhhhh...."

Carmelo ran out and checked, and only 1 was from a ZJ with rear discs.

Nice!

...I was bored at work. That totals $1825 plus shipping, plus the cost of the axle, plus any potential for needing to replace brakes etc. Still not bad though, all things considered.


Edit: you do need to remember, though, that this list doesn't include hi-steer arms, which IIRC are about $250 ish for a d60

Dude those prices are WAY high and you have things that aren’t needed.
$245 for Poly’s flanges is not worth it when you get get them from the place that makes Poly’s for $199.95 (SummitMachine)
$380 is $90 more than I paid for my lockright shipped, shop around.
You don’t need a new carrier for the front D60 gears, just run a “thick” gearset and save the cash.
$354 is a bit much for gears/install. I recall paying less than that.

i love lego's

Nah, old school erector sets are where it’s at.

pulled the o ring as well and the brakes are mint

Isn’t the problem with that being you could lose all your brakes if one line fails? The o ring isolates the front from rear, IIRC.

some of that stuff like all the brakets i will make myself so money will be saved there, but i didnt mention about goin full hydro for steerin, i havent even looked into pricing for that

I’m “budgeting” $1100 for hydro.

that aint even the right locker silly, frt 60's are 35 spline

He’s used to wimpy D44 shafts.

only cool kids run 60's in front

Yes.

:dunno: whatever dude. :laugh3: I just made a quick list seeing as, like I said...bored at work!!

actually, i've never run a "wimpy" D44 shaft And to be honest, I initially didn't even look at the spline count, just searched "Dana 60 lock right" and got that link first. Forgive me, your holiness!! :worship:
