Won't fit in an Audi.....................and does not cost enough.



Something about this flip flopping thread conversation reminds me of
something about Kiefer?...................hmmmmm what is it? ................yes, no, yes, no.......


can not quite put my finger on it?

Eh shut up. I actually started saving money. So i got some money to play with right now.

Soon enough ill be lookin for a D44 for the front. But until then im just gonna toss some adapters up there Maybe ill build this and then find a D44 and Shorten it to this length. Full width is what 65 WMS to WMS?

Honestly, for 33s you are far better off building your D30 then you are to build up a 44. 44s get expensive. Dont ask me how I know.:tear:

So what were the big $$$ parts you installed?

Is there a way i can convert the 30 into 5on 5.5?

If there is then ill probably do that.

I hope to start ordering parts for this thing here in a month.

I got a 50 dollar certificate for a new drive shaft. so Ill probably order one up for the swap.

Yeah i saw those as you have seen my post there.

Well Just got a PM from the guy i bought it from and he said it was out of a 75 F150 4x4.

 

[YELLAHEEP]

Yeah i saw those as you have seen my post there.

Well I figured you needed the reminder......... otherwise why would you ask how to convert the D30???? :twak:

 

[Kittrell]

Is that...axle envy????

Ahaha, I think you forget what I did with that 44 you sold me.........

Well i have heard a couplea bad things about spacers.

 

[Kittrell]

Well i have heard a couplea bad things about spacers.

That's because they weren't spidertrax and/or they weren't properly torqued, my young Jeeper.

Ah. So different brands are different?

I think i would want a full width axle if i got those from dutch though. I could just run 2 different hole rims.

Yeah, there's differences in wheel spacers.... generally due to the type and quality of the material used. Spydertrax uses high-strength billet aluminum. Good stuff!

But....... your next comment has me confused......... If you get a full-width front axle....... why would you even need spacers?

The whole reason for the spacers with your D30 is to help it match the full-width rear....... AND....... allows you to run one bolt pattern for all wheels....... :twak:

The better thought about these spacers: Use them UNTIL you get a full-width front axle - which will end up being 5 on 5.5 anyway. Ya dig?

Wheels, a rim is a part of a wheel. Yes, I'm that guy...........

Oh, I remember it, and the pictures of the finished product. I also remember pictures of someone else wheeling the snot out of it in Moab. Did you even pop it's cherry? :gag:

 

[YELLAHEEP]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure he scratched it during the install............

Well crap. I don't see this going anywhere anytime soon. And i found a new problem with my jeep so its going to be for sale.

I found out my track bar mount is a little bent. I was looking at mine then looked at a friends. So Time for an HD track bar and mount.

Probably a wise choice............................

Yeah Ill just regear my current axles. I don't plan on going 35's anytime soon so ill leave it how it is. Might just lock the 8.25 depending on if its a 29 or a 27 spline.
