about time you fitted the wider axles but then the tyres will rub on the outer arch/footwell on the front and dont say they wont as they are close alread

Well they won't on the rear (I don't think anyway) I'll have less to cut out on the outer arch anyway so it will still be worth it.

well we will soon see but yea its worth it
but what type of arch's are you going to use to cover the tyres??

Looking sweet scottie, some serious flex, will be even more with wider axles too, what props are you using? and what did your wheelbase end up as?

[ScottieJ]

Cheers matey

The wheel base came out pretty much stock but when i fit the sammy axles I'm going move the front foward 1" and the rear back 1" so 82" ish?

As for the props I haven't got to that bit yet once the sammy axles are on and transmission is in i'll see what happens? The stock 410 ones should bolt straight on and be pretty much the right length hopefully

Made a start on fitting the samurai axles, picked up two sets of shafts and CVs at the weekend. so that's now 3 sets I have now (I'm gonna need spares ) A new rear diff and some new rear wheel bearings for them.












I think it's almost as wide as it is tall now

i take ityour going to add more to that??as that will rip off as it is there

[ScottieJ]

Yeah don't worry Parrot, I'm going to be bracing the axles so it's all gotta come off again to be finished, Don't think it would last my driving very long if I left it like that
