    Double cardan front shaft with stock upper CA

    Ordered a spicer driveshaft. It has two options on lift heights. one is for 0-2 inch of lift and one is for 2-4 inch of lift. Since I have a aev 3.5 lift kit I ordered the 2-4 version which seems obvious to me but, can the geo brackets somehow change this since that aev use and therefore the 0-2...

    Double cardan front shaft with stock upper CA

    Thx for the good explanation. But I feel I have to ask one more thing. It says that the UD44 has more caster than stock and also better pinion angles for lifted jeeps. I understand what that means and that is a good thing since the pinion angle is far from great right now. But it does not say...

    Double cardan front shaft with stock upper CA

    Thx for input. Eddie, I'm not sure if I follow you about factory gears. Do you mean that because of the 3.73 ratio the driveshaft will turn less rpm then a 4.56 for example and because of that vibration should not be a problem? In future I will regear to 4.56 but I will proberly buy a whole...

    Double cardan front shaft with stock upper CA

    Hi Do you need adjustable upper front CA to run a aftermarket double cardan style drive shaft? I have heard that otherwise you will get vibration if you do not adjust, is that correct? I´ve installed a AEV 3.5 inch liftkit and to be honest regardless to the AEV instructions I do not see how...

    american cars and other stuff

    Hi I´ve always liked american cars a lot and think that all the way from the 40´s up to middle, late 70´s. I prefer the mussclecars from the 60´s but to be honest I think there are so many cool and nice cars from us it is hard to count. Sure, sometimes in the middle of the 70´s things started...

    4.10 vs 4.56 ratio

    Since I´m going to buy bigger tires ( proberly 305/70/18 ) cooper I guess that my 3.73 gear ratio is a bit to tall. Anyway, with my curent cooper st max 275/70/18 tires and stock 3,73 axle ratio all is ok. Not super good or very "peppy" but works well. If I go to 4,10 with the new tires I...

    1,5" wheel spacers

    Hi I just installed 1.5" wheel spacers because of rubbing against the swaybar. No more rubbing there so thats good but now there is some minor rubbing att full flex on the fender instead, haha. Guess that making a small "mouse hole" in the fender edge might do the trick. 1,25" spacer would...
