Axle Housing Suggestions

[Bertman82]

Figured I'd provide some closure to this thread, but feel free to carry on of wanted. Got the SSD housings and mis parts received and installed finally. They look and work great.

Besides the previously discussed shock and C-hub interference, the other item I don't like is still in that same area. Finding a way to make everything fit is good for now, but the next time I need to remove the shock, I will have to slide the C-hub off first to gain access to the screw. That's going to annoy future me when the shocks next need to be rebuilt or filled up again. For now I'm happy.

Thanks again for the help.

Your truck looks great on those axles. I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

A suggestion though, next time you need to service your shocks, it might be easier to separate you axles from the link mounts.
You could access your shocks by removing just 4 screws (8 to pull the shocks off completely) rather than pulling your tire, c-hubs, ect.

Hadn't thought of that. That's a good idea. Thanks.

I certainly wouldn't hurt to do it the "normal" way once in a while though to check your shaft bearings and such.

I really enjoy the SSD axles. I upgrade the tubes to aluminum or steel and I run the brass knuckles and rear drums.

For added insurance TGH makes these slick trusses that work with the diamond centers. Absolutely no interference with steering on the front.
