Thanks for the compliments folks! The axles are indeed TLT-1, with the center axle modified for dual outputs.

new pics to come soon!

Hey Ryan, that is just sick. I didn't even think of using two input halves to get the shaft out the back of the diff. That is trick. Its cool to see someoe trying something totally off the wall new and different than the rest. If the 8x8 works so well, I am curious to see when someone builds the equal to it using Clod axles.

I am currently working on a standard 4wd 4link scaled crawler myself using TLT axles and it is coming along slowly. Maybe I can have it ready for the next time you get down to wheel here in Hollister. This is Sam by the way. The guy with the Slinky Jeep. You may remember this pic from when we wheeled at Hollister?


Since it looks like you have moved since then, I guess it will be a little longer before we get to wheel again. Either way, I can't wait to check out your 8x8 in person. Although, it may be a 10x10 by that time.

-Sam

Man! I really like the scale FJ40 and the 45 idea. That Unimog is sick. I found some scale mog axles on a site once. Not sure if they're still there
