I just cracked open the old trans case and found that the middle gear is still plastic,.
Now i have to order that gear. Oh well plenty other things to work on till it comes in.

[DRV KRAWLER]

Maybe just install the pastic gear and call it TEAM POOF.

[M1tch]

If we ain't foofin', we're poofin'!!!

[DRV KRAWLER]

! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

[stelerzman]

Thats a sure fire way to blow up a tranny.
I'll order it today and start on the axles.

[stelerzman]

I got the RR gears ordered, I'll get back to the trans when they come in. As for now, I'll be working on getting the axles built along with rebuilding and limiting the shocks..

[stelerzman]

Im in the process of tearing down both axles and rebuilding them with the cases I have. I will post some pics soon.

[DRV KRAWLER]

I want pictures, I want to see those pretty axle housings with some grease in them. Wait, did that sound bad ?

[stelerzman]

Not at all. Im also looking for pinion shims. Going by Ace hardware to see if I can find some thin washers that might work.
I'll get some pics up soon.

[stelerzman]

here are some pic's of the progress i have made on the build.



Tranny pulled.



front axle pulled and the beginning of the rebuild.



All new bearings going in the front axles.



I put 1 shim in the front axle behind the pinion.



Lubed the gears with a moly fortified wheel bearing grease.







The flash on my camera really shows off the new Boca Bearings i installed.



Here is the axle case all together with the C-hubs installed.







this is the knuckles with the BB installed.


Sorry about the FUZZY pic. .



Almost done.


Ready for install.:flipo ff:.




Thats right, behind the axle steering.

Thats all the progress for now. Next up is the rear axle..
Stay tuned for more pic's and progress, Thanks for watching..

Sorry to hijack bro but thats the funniest damn thing Ive read on here in a long time...nice build BTW...like the stance...Juan makes a good lookin chassis.

[M1tch]

im envious of those axle housings

still compensation is i have some wraith axles on the way. that means i can lower my body and chassis an inch or so.

very nice build you are doing

Thanks, i can't wait to see your build.

[stelerzman]

I started working on the rear axles when i found this problem.



I have to grind a little material off the lockout for them to fit.



I know i could have bought the GH lockouts but i didn't like the way they looked. These look sleeker so I'll modify them..

[Hacksaw707]

WOW All those shiny new parts.......they look way to nice for some FOFF basher. You should shit can this whole project and send those my way, and I'll send you some experienced parts in return.... Just looking out for fellow member






What do you say?

well at least it will be a good fit. sometimes stuff like that can be too slack, especially if they come from different manufacturers.
