Heres some old pics I found that might help explain. Im worried the shock might be too corroded for the snap ring, but it is stainless maybe it can be brushed off. There could be a few 1000lbs? maybe? on this little snap ring under a hard hit. I'll take it out when i get home, try to clean up the gr...

This little snap ring sits into a groove on the shock body which holds up the spring perch. Theres a fews grooves along the shock for height adjustment... This stupis ring takes all the weight, the groove is less than 1mm deep I've thought of welding it... but I dont know whats inside or what kind o...

So just as I'm about to go for a test drive after installing ARB front gears ect... been on blocks for months now... Thought I'd take the front wheels off do a good once over, grease BJ's, slider pins, check everything before AW. Lowered it... and BOOM drops to the ground. Any redneck solutions, sug...

Just in time for AW, still need to the airlines compressor, switches, ect...

Running the same borla in 2.25" and resonators. Love it. I need to add a Vibrant Ultra Quiet Resonator into the tail pipe. I don't want to loose any of the sound below 1500 RPM but the "pooping" and "blatting" at higher RPMS can sound like its straight piped. :irked: Have 2...

Yes, decent travel, and yes. Lack of traction, severe axle hop after the header / UpRev install, and handling when trailering were the main reasons. As much as I'm loving then on road I'm worried about them off road. My rocker panels and frame are covered in scars, these hang down too much and in a...

looks sweet! What was the main reason, you getting axle wrap? or you have lots of travel back there? and is that a borla pro xs?

Yeah I don't know Snafu. If the boots gone to crap obvisiouly waters gonna get in, but maybe to much heat, or a combination of both. For those not in the know, they do sell the pins sepeatly at Nissan, Crap Tire, and the likes. Ive not been able to locate the rubber boot though. I recently picked u...

Any pics of the traction bars?

Don't forgot to close it when you bleed it... Did that once, made a nice fancy fountain under the hood

Ok, sounds like the l4 cummins has 'enough' power for the Titan but maybe not enough to give the other trucks a slap in the face. The v6 diesel in the ram scares me a little, it's about time dodge quits with the 'Hemi' jango - every motor has a 'hemispherical cylinder head' since the 60's. Never lik...

Even though I was abusing it... I'm still surprised a V6 and tired old clutch with over 200k would snap it. Lesson learned... Expensive lesson.. .

Install the shaft on the wrong side? Might want to talk to NismoJunky :fist: Too late got ARB locker and 4 new shafts from the scrap yard - 2 longer ones from a non locker m226 and 2 staggered ones from the locking m226. Got the extra shafts to experiment on which combo grabs the splines the most. ...

oops...

im with ya Nissan needs to bring the diesels to north america. I hope they dont wimp out with the L4. The 6would be way more badass!!

4BT cummins / small block ford 5 speed bolt together... 100HP.... 350ft.lbs. Easy swap, no electronics all mechanical motor, dirt cheap and easy to find. Helped a buddy put one in his jeep... It does wheelies...

I usually sub out gear set up. Especially for GMs that use the stupid crush sleeve. If I am seeing that correctly, your TIR is .005" or less. Did you find any spec to suggest that is too much? That's the thickness of a pc of paper so not a lot. Did you perform the same readings on the carrier ...

Well thanks for your thoughts guys. Honestly its not as bad as everyone thinks, I'm sure you you guys are perfectly capable to take on a gear swap. Just takes the right amount of motivation, prep and patients... and tools help too. If everything had of worked out in my picture perfect dream world it...

Effing disaster.... Posted up on TitanTalk, Clubfrontier, jeepkings and here not a bite... Started this swap in early May with nothing but issues, was sent the wrong spacers, wrong yoke, wrong specs. I'l be down another month if things go well... I've nailed it down to a bad ring gear, shipping it t...

I might be over my head here, I realize I might need some help... I'm installing 4.56 gears on a Dana 44 with E-locker (M226) As I got closer and closer I realized something isnt right... On one side of the Ring gear the pattern is digging to deep but when I rotate the whole thing and check opposite...
