3.5" lift with 35's

Buggy Build Thanks Broncokak, I have been to busy with the building part. You can look in my garage to see some of the progress. I will update soon as I am painting the links and body skins for final install. Mechanically all I have left is to install a statrer and start it up. The motor...

Buggy Build Thanks SpareParts, I have been busy trying to finish and hit some trails. Maybe by April for LEBC Round UP at Mason.

You could bolt and use panel bond between the flat bar and the windshield/body. This will help seal and hold it in place. Just a thought, good luck.

Buggy Build Been busy the building a buggy.

You are probably on the right path in buying the pre assembled floor section with that much rust. However it may prove to be quit a job to section the whole assembly in and line up every thing. Just measure and brace, brace, and measure. Then measure some more. Good Luck and remember eat...

Ok guys, just looking for some input on which one to run or make some changes if necessary. Thanks in advance. The spec. on a 10.25 Sterling is .011 to .016 Backlash. The first two are .038 Pinion Depth and .012 Backlash. The second two are .038 Pinion Depth and .016 Backlash.

I used a piece of 2x3x.187" tubing for both the truss and backbrace. Just welded slow and used a narrowing jig to make sure the housing, tubes, and ends were all straight. Just takes some time.

I run 35's and have drug it many times just repaint afterwards. I shaved, trussed, and backbraced mine for good measure.

I believe the number is stamped on the top next to the bolt hole for the spring cup on each piece (cup and arm). Mine had a 72 passengers side with a circle around the number and the other was 53 drivers side. As mentioned if you can't find the numbers bolt them together and see how they match...

Here's mine.
