Im headed to the wreckin yard to pick up a dana44 this weekend and from what ive heard its a 4x4 grave yard so im hopin to find a corp14 and a dana 60... To build up over the next few months. Now i think i read that i can find a good front dana60 in mid-late 90s 3/4ton dodges is that right? So how bout them nuckles? Im wanting to put them on my 44 until i get good axles built with gears and air lockers and bullitproof shafts....

[Swamp Ass]

Hey thanks gor that bud but i found my nuckles now im onto my t-case problem lol... Thanks thou

[ryan_thompson87]

Those don't look like any 38s I've ever seen.

[Swamp Ass]

Yea i know... but they messure 37 1/2 and they about half life they messured 38 1/4 when they was new

[Swamp Ass]

Honestly i think its the deep dish rim that makes them look off

[ryan_thompson87]

Can't find anything that says they made Buckshots in 38s......or even anyone that makes a 38 in anything smaller than 14" wide which those definitely aren't......How wide are the rims? Those don't look to be anymore than a 35", even if they were a wide rim and it ain't close to the same heightthey would balloon more. The way my truck sits on 36x12.5" TSLs or 35x10.5" Boggers, Yours should tower over it with 38s, even with what looks like a 4" lift,. Just saying it should sit higher.

Did like the vids BTW.

Lol, I'm thinking that's it, I found an old ass set of 38s on google, looks like they did make 'em, I stand corrected.

[Swamp Ass]

Haha what can i say its not a photogenic truck?... in about 15 min my phone will be charhed enuf to take a few pics with a tape messure


A lil fyi... its a 6in lift

[Swamp Ass]

6in lift springs in front 5.5 blocks in rear

[ryan_thompson87]

I stand corrected. Looks to be the same lift I have, or had until I played with the front spring rate.

[Swamp Ass]

Your right thou... i cant find these tires in a 3i8in online eather... but mine deffinatly messured 38in when i puttem on... i got them from a local case IH dealer he had 2 sets. A half life set and a new set.. i got the new and i duno what happend to the others... maby he gottem a long ass time ago or somthin. these are stamped gateway like the old ground hogs. ill ask him next time i need to pick up some hydro fluid. what tires do you run now?

[ryan_thompson87]

Ya they looked to be Gateway Buckshot mudders. Old school.

I've got my TSLs on a spare set of rims now for the Winter, so I don't wear down my Boggers pointlessly. Plus the TSLs are a bit better in snow.

[Swamp Ass]

True 6in lift springs and 40s are my next step... im thinking boggers aswell but still now 100% shur yet
well that and a set of REAL beadlocks no fake look-a-likes haha. I figure since there are so many well faked ones runnin around I should be able to get away with the real thing

[ryan_thompson87]

I've been toying with the idea of just a set of weld-on beadlocks for my Rallyes, but I never air down past 10psi anyway, so I'm not real concerned.

[1500G.M]

awesome truck, love the tailgate!

[Swamp Ass]

Thanks 1500 im lovin ur stepside aswell... Expecially parked next to that pete. My friends named the truck one night when i got a 3am phone call to pull 3 trucks out of a....well a damn swamp lol. Its kinda funny lookin at this post since im in the middle of building my truck from ground up once again and WOW did i completly abondon my game plan and to ape **** lol... I got another post goin were ive talked more about what ive changed and new(er) pics. And my new rs5036 rear shocks came in today so those are goin on first thing in the a.m. Since im stayi home from work sick lol *cough* *cough*.... can you tell?

[Swamp Ass]

Shocks messure 36in fully extended and 15inch of travel so they should work fairly well...(for now) in a couple years it will prolly get a new complete rebuild full of more upgrades lol

[81chevy k10]

thats what im talking about man, sick vids and pics :D, and hey ryan, were from the same province :p

[ryan_thompson87]

That we are. Where you at?

[81chevy k10]

im in the south end of winnipeg, i see you're in portage, thats a dope truck man, hows the mud over there? looks way better than the floodway.

[ryan_thompson87]

Currently.... It's kinda slim little bit in the hills, nothing like last year.

[81chevy k10]
