    side by side

    Off road the thing is unstickable, it can turn around mid trail on a steep hill without turning a tire while the side by sides in the group get stuck. On road they are better than most Muds as they do have some sipes for wet traction on pavement/ice. No idea on wear as it lives 99% off road. The...

    I vote Geo Tracker, $800 off Craigslist, 1 gal OD paint and 4 Kenda mud tires $450. Has heat/AC, goes over 80 MPH (at least) and it has plates so you can drive it to the store!! Both my kids learned to drive a stick in it too..

    Max MPG- slant vs 318/340

    Bear in mind it takes a given amount of fuel to move a given weight/shape car down the road at a given speed. I removed the 258 6cyl/5spd from my Wrangler years ago and replaced it with a tune port 305/700R4. it got the EXACT same mileage before and after (16/18 MPG) but sure was a lot faster...

    how to spider gears

    no,the LBP axles are shorter by about an inch than the SBP. I learned this all the hard way changing my '66 cuda to LBP about 4 Mos. ago. However all the internals are the same.That is why I said you could change your 3rd member between housings by only re setting the backlash. But you must...

    how to spider gears

    First, I didn't say to switch the ring gears,but to switch the actual diff assy,keeping the ring and pinion together as a set. second the bolt pattern on the LBP backing plate/bearing is larger than the SBP.LBP axle tubes flare out to the same size as a 8 1/4 right at the end so they can use...

    how to spider gears

    I don't think an open diff shares any parts with a sure grip.If the sure grip is in your "parts" diff, just change the ring gear and reset the backlash.Your pinion depth is already set up as you aren't changing pinions.If that doesn't make sense sell me your suregrip!!!(I have a good 7 1/4 open...
