LJ#2 is getting the stretch with the full float RJ60 and stretch tank. But that full float cost a lot more than my semi on LJ#1.I didn’t say it was junk…
I’m after the most wheelbase I can get with a stretch tank and the best ground clearance.

Your two builds (35's in JV and whatever you are building for) have exactly zero in common.LJ#2 is getting the stretch with the full float RJ60 and stretch tank. But that full float cost a lot more than my semi on LJ#1.

Yes you do. My tub will remain stock besides cutting the wheel well opening with blank corners.I have 108 with a tank underneath.
May as well leave it like it is then.Yes you do. My tub will remain stock besides cutting the wheel well opening with blank corners.
So in your opinion 5-7” stretch on 35s is not worth it?May as well leave it like it is then.
99-101 on 35's out there with a 19"ish belly height is absolutely worth it. Please note the distinction between an actual wheelbase number and the bullshit stretch number amounts published by folks trying to take your money. They are not the same numbers.So in your opinion 5-7” stretch on 35s is not worth it?
I understand the marketing is BS. I believe they claim for 9” with the 15 gallon tank. I wouldn’t be surprised if we couldn’t even get 7” out of it. That is still going to be my best off the shelf option for a fuel tank. Unless you want to build one like cliffs again?99-101 on 35's out there with a 19"ish belly height is absolutely worth it.

They are selling 7" over stock. You are not stock. That and as much as you street drive it, you're gonna hate a 15 gallon tank.
I had the opportunity to chat with Mike over at T and J this afternoon. I asked him what was up with the diff covers. He explained that they are still waiting on Dana to get them covers.
Mine took over 5 weeks, but I may send them some to have them converted.Well, crap. I talked to Houston there on the 30th, and he thought the Dana shipment was very close to arrival, and he put me down for a couple and said he'd call when they're made. It's now two weeks later, so I was hoping that I'd get a call soon, figuring it probably takes a couple weeks for them to modify them. This news crushes my dreams of a ship date soon...

So as someone who is just trying to learn ins/outs of welding... why this wire? is it something to do with the metal used in the housing or does the 'hardfacing' mean it is stronger... or something else I'm missing (most likely obvious)?Until then, there are ways and means. Note the shielding gas needed. Note typical application.

That isn't for welding to cast, that is for laying down a hardened wear surface.Your welding to cast (iron?).
OK, so this would be instead of the aforementioned welding a 1/4" plate to the bottom?That isn't for welding to cast, that is for laying down a hardened wear surface.
In addition to. The plate still wears away, the hard facing slows that way down. I know of almost no grown or mostly grown adult male who hasn't seen hard facing before, they likely just didn't know what they were looking at.OK, so this would be instead of the aforementioned welding a 1/4" plate to the bottom?
