| blue monkey front axle (mip) alternative
I've done some searching with out much luck. So I'm asking you guys. Is there a drop in alternative to the bluemonkey (mip) front axle setup? Something I can bolt together like the bluemonkey setup.

The only thing that can KEEP you from breaking axles is putting your Yeti on a shelf. The setup from DLux is much stronger than stock and much stronger than any other front driveshaft option for the Yeti. It uses a stronger design on the shafts and knuckles with larger bearings and more material everywhere and will greatly reduce your chances of having a driveline failure. The BMRC MIP setup is no longer available anyway.

Did you get 5 or 6mm outputs from BM? Do you have a dremel? If not, get one. | |

Yup, the knuckles. I would put the male side mip attached to outputs to clear shocks better but you will have to grind caster blocks as well. Also, you will have to grind down the outputs as well, there 1mm to long each side.

How did you order it? It plainly states "this product is no longer available". Am I missing something?

After reading your posts and placing the order with out noticing the "no longer available" I contacted BMRC. He was very nice, and scrounged up enough parts to put a kit together for me. But yeh, that kit is no longer available. Big Shout-out to Blue Monkey! Thanks for the heads up guys! |
