90 % of the time Droids interpret txt or pix messages from iphones as a slide show, that you cant pause stop or zoom.  its rather annoying.

That's the pic I got. I have no other way to look at it without driving an hour.

If it is a Chevy front, the 60 would have a tapped spring pad.  The 44 would have the casting formed for a u-bolt.  From what I can see, it's a 44.

Putting 60's under the buggy already.  Dropping the toy axles?

Post by: etk300ex on February 14, 2013, 07:48:54 PM
However it looks raised in the opposite direction as yours
Title: Re: D44 or D60?
Post by: Ryan on February 14, 2013, 07:58:58 PM
It looks to be a 44.

If I can find a set cheap enough I can run them stock and not spend the coin on wheel spaces and Chromo shafts that the toyota axles need.

Post by: etk300ex on February 14, 2013, 08:13:45 PM
Your running 2 fronts, you don't need spacers.  In still running stock.
Title: Re: D44 or D60?
Post by: Ryan on February 14, 2013, 08:17:30 PM
Not 2 front, but still need chromos and larger drive flanges.

A set of tons would be run in stock form, and last fine.

Post by: etk300ex on February 14, 2013, 09:09:00 PM
Shit you'll sell or trade it before you can break a stock toy shaft ;)

Your running a rear now?  That will be an interesting drive shaft no?
Title: Re: D44 or D60?
Post by: Ryan on February 14, 2013, 09:16:48 PM
Front engine.
Title: D44 or D60?
Post by: etk300ex on February 14, 2013, 09:24:24 PM
Yeah.  Angled shaft?
Title: Re: D44 or D60?
Post by: Ryan on February 14, 2013, 09:26:20 PM
Yea, it will be fine.
Title: Re: D44 or D60?
Post by: matt on February 15, 2013, 08:23:52 AM
My rear shafts are still stock.  Only put longs and fuses in the front.  Been fine for me.  One guy I know took out a rear shaft and that was with a 4.3 and a heavy 4 door sidekick, other than that just R&P failures
Title: Re: D44 or D60?
Post by: etk300ex on February 15, 2013, 08:29:58 AM
I'm stock, welded, full hydro.  According to pirate I shouldn't be able to drive it out of the garage with out breaking :)

The problem is it won't even drive out of the garage!  :)

Im just thinking cost, Toyota axles will require Longs or Dirty 30s, and be limited to 37" tires for a buggy. Tons I can keep stock, put in 35 spline outers and be good for any size tires. If I am going to change it up, now is the time.

ball joints and disco seems worthless
Title: Re: D44 or D60?
Post by: Ryan on February 15, 2013, 11:51:52 AM
Ball joints would be ok for me. Cad can be bypassed.

I agree with your end point, but idk where your yota axle info is coming from.

More weight too, need bigger tire to get same amount of ground clearance.  37 with toys = 39.5 or 42 with tons.
