Orlandoo Hunter Jeep Help
 

Curious if anyone has picked up part MA2-550... the aluminum axles. Picked them up and there are no instructions with them. Found a single page online on how to assemble them but the geometry is all wrong when i try to install on the chasis.

No room the way the steering servo is mounted and the axles don't sit properly. All the links seem to be messed up lengths now.

Has anyone successfully installed these and care to share the solution or some pics?

Thanks

I don't have one but I would start off by ordering a few link kits. The kits are cheap and will allow you to change/dial in your suspension and wheelbase..

If you're using them on the F-150, you will need the upodated link kit:

Also make sure that you line up the shafts correctly, you need the screws in-line with each other so they don't bind...

I also have the male end on the axles and female on the gearbox.

I also had the Jeep with metal axles, and all was fine - you just need to make sure your links are set correctly.

Using them on the newer jeep. I have the updated drive links but it didn't work as intended. Spoke with lhs and they told me i need to adjust the link lengths to compensate for any different geometry.

The front axle also came with a mounting holder for the steering servo but you can't use it as it binds with the frame and shocks... i was a bit dissapointed with that but what can you do.

Newer Jeep = Pajero?

The SWB Jeep with the full metal axles has definitely been done by others, (I know that they're wider than stock) but not sure what link lengths were correct I'm afraid...

Putting the servo on the chassis is a good mod for the Jeep and easy to do too.

yeah, unfortunately they are not intended for the Jeep and in stock configuration limit the suspension ever so slightly and like u noticed the links are now wrong. IMO stick with the stock axles... but........ it can be corrected.
with a custom chassis mount servo u should get the suspension travel back and I cant remember what links to use, but they are cheap... just order them all (f150,jeep,pajero)
