hey what axles are you running on your rig? or if you have a build list that would be sweet, ive got a lift, wheels, fenders, haven’t put them on yet and trying to decide the rest of my build!! thanks man!

Yes yes just came to conclusion that I’m not getting it, ima just wait until i get all the parts i need, things are still getting shipped in from pervious orders, and then go from there, if it was 30 mins away I’d go check it out, not worth the drive tho

Ahh yes that makes me wonder if i should save up and spend an extra 1k-1.5k on a brand new fully assembled or not. Hmm anybody have any other axle recommendations as well?

Alright cool cool thanks!! Hoping he gets back to me 🤞

Alright awesome you think total of $600 including gas and sandblast and 5 hour drive it worth it to have a front and rear Dana 44? Then I’ll be able to do 5.38 as well.

How much you think that would run me? Just offered him 400 hope he takes it! Thanks for getting back so quick i appreciate it.

How would i tackle the rust inside that one spot?

Hey guys! This Dana 44 front is up on FB for $450, needs a left lower control arm bracket, I’ll wire brush the whole thing, please give me input! Thanks!! @Jerry Bransford @Chris

😂😂

Ohh yes that makes sense, why were 4.88s the standard before? People just didn’t use overdrive?

That’s what i was told as well! And on the phone i was explaining how all these guys on this forum have reccomended 5.13/5.38 and i asked for a quote on 5.13 and he said “those forum guys” have no clue what they’re talking about, and he wouldn’t go passed 4.88, very irritating

Yes I’m planning on finding another shop to do everything, anybody know any good shops in the tri-state/Philadelphia area? He was bashing you guys when i was asking him to do 5.13 and i kinda just hung up on him 😂

Okay yes this makes total sense, i called Globex performance NJ and they said that 4.88 is the most they would put in a dana30, i told him my specs, and he said 5.13 would be screaming on the highway. What are your thoughts?

And by turning it off, that’s when the light comes on right? And i didn’t know it keeps the temp down and prolongs the trans life when it’s off (obviously city driving not highway)

Do you use overdrive with your setup?
