    Need "crawler help" for a drag racing 4x4!

    Thanks to all of you, I am grateful. I will pick up the tele and call Jesse, I went to his website and checked it out. He builds the stuff i break. I think he can turn my half shaft/CV/ whatever you guru's call it:) into a shorty driveshaft with knuckles at both ends I have to assume i have a...

    BEEF! What is that in between the axles/CV's? It looks like a diff only different? Those look hand made, may i ask who made 'em?

    Need "crawler help" for a drag racing 4x4!

    I used Mcaughys 2" spindles in an effort to retain some semblance of stock geometry. I need to go find a solid axle truck and take a peak at it, see if i can fab it in. Do they make conversion kits or is that a build it yer self deal?

    Need "crawler help" for a drag racing 4x4!

    The pictures i posted are without the 850 lb motor in it. It sits a measly 3-4 inches lower than stock in the front, loaded and rolling. I don't know about solid axles and if it would fit, I can say the oil pans are somewhat wrapped around the crossmember attaching the A arms.

    Need "crawler help" for a drag racing 4x4!

    Solid axle? Hmmm stronger and i prolly save some weight? If i used hubs i would have to get out of the truck to lock it on the street, this thing is a monster on the streets i need 4 wheel to keep it off the curbs and the K-rails. In other words, I have traction issues.

    Need "crawler help" for a drag racing 4x4!

    I don't have much at the office that is current and meaningful. But I'll share what i have, this is street trim and some parts pict's. All very old but you can see it's a purdy serious street/strip effort. I did the guages in the hood for a little bling-bling:o I spun the charger sideways...

    Need "crawler help" for a drag racing 4x4!

    Bryson, thanks for the response. Bummer, they fixed the CV issue and broke the next part down the link.... discouraging and costly. Why are they breaking? I don't swing a big wheel "arc" like you guy's do, they aren't breaking under hard acceleration at the drag strip, I am not slipping and...

    Need "crawler help" for a drag racing 4x4!

    Gents! My name is James, I built a 4x4 Diesel drag truck and i need help with the CV's/lockers. I am not a crawler but the stuff i have problems with is the stuff you guy's know about, so i figured i needed to talk to the Guy's who have the experience. There is only 1 other lowered GMC Diesel...
