    Kid crawler

    Someone posted one on here a few years back. Basically stock drivetrain and suspension, but a tube chassis on top. Looked pretty killer. Edit: found a few in my archive

    Kid crawler

    The 2nd gen has much more power, and autos seem more common. The 2nd gen has a weaker transfer case, but a 1st gen can be swapped in. 2nd gen has less aftermarket support. If you want to stay ifs, you can get a front housing from a grand vitals, they were steel. Trackers are wider than...

    Pics of your shops/garages/specs

    Sweet. That looks complex. I was just going to put in a manifold, fed by a pump/heater.

    Unit Bearing on kingpin knuckle

    I would also agree with that. But that also puts you into running custom shafts. Not sure that is an issue for most, esp if you are going to spend the money for Overson, Branik, or RCV with the big stub. For my axle, Ball joint eliminators can also fix some of the desire to run UB up front...

    Unit Bearing on kingpin knuckle

    Agreed. My initial thoughts were to be able to run 05+ UB up front, to match the ones on the rear axle, and speed up possible trail repairs. But I wanted to not have to re-purchase the axle shafts. With the cost to machine this adapter, most likely, it would be cheaper to build a 05+ sd60...

    Unit Bearing on kingpin knuckle

    One thing I should note. My axle is a balljoint 60, which has the integrated caliper mount. The face on the knuckle is compensated for this extra thickness. If you used it on a kingpin axle, the Ford caliper mount should still go behind the "spindle" like in the stock configuration, or...

    Unit Bearing on kingpin knuckle

    Was doing some maintenance to the rig and decided to test fit the pieces, since I had it apart. I didnt have the correct bolts/studs so ignore that part, but the dimensions seem to match up well. The slug and cap still need work to finish them out, but honestly that is the part most places...

    CL of the day

    I watched the video, but putting it for sale on Craigslist or Marketplace doesnt seem like the top place to sell to the DOD or other Munis.

    CL of the day

    Why does it need to be diesel? The builder is in TN. Maybe his target is west coast, but a newer gas engine would have been my preference, and been a better option for an east coast wheeling rig. If he was going to the dependability of a diesel, in the choice, I would have gone with...

    All those parts and time, and they used a 2.8l cummins? Not saying that's a bad engine, but seems like there are better options.

    I have no idea what I'm doing aka the worst Ultra4 4400 build thread on Earth.

    It's looking good. Why not recess the B-pillar into the factory one, between the doors, and sit it on top of the rocker?

    Pro Rock Stock Class XJ Build

    Could also use long nuts that stick out of the lug bore, so the socket doesnt need to fit in the hole.

    Trailer suspension

    The big challenge with shocks, IMO, on a trailer, is the varying amounts of weight. Just pick them for the most common load. Might be able to find some of the "load adjusting" shocks that some companies advertise.

    2 & 4 post lifts

    The big question for me is: symmetric, asymmetric, or super symmetric?

    Did you cut/form the concrete for the baseplate? It looks very low profile.
