You're going to ADD torx bolts to a Jeep? Cmon go with allen heads, phillips head, anything but torx!
are you going to unload your current tranny/tcase? Will they bolt up to a 304?
uhhhh...huhuhhhh...
is this going between the heim and steering arm?
well, I guess some rodents are considered to be fairly intelligent :flipoff2:
no job that pays you to put your life on the line is gonna attract the brightest crayons in the box
so you drove around and it rides and steers just like the dodge did from the factory?
Dammit Nick would you quit posting smilies from the Rubicon Owner's Forum? :D
maybe you should get your **** straight...I think John's got a couple of weekends at gilmer on you, he lives like ten minutes away
hey now, no disagreeing, you wanna get this thread locked again? :flipoff2:
so how many degrees of caster is "proper?"
and just for fun, did your Scout in stock form have "proper caster?"
yes thank you for showing me what I've just described several times :rolleyes:
If deathwobble is being caused by too little caster angle in the left diagram it will be worse in the right diagram....
Yeah Robbie, Ryan's right, I've never built anything myself and definitely have never messed with a leafspring suspension and had to solve caster and pinion angle problems. I only know how to talk...
everything I've said in this thread is correct and makes sense in the context of the information given. what's retarded is thinking that tipping your pinion up will improve deathwobble, and wanting...
well then put some shims in and see if it needs a steering arm spacer, if it does put a couple washers under the draglink heim and go see if it's fixed
how long are the front shackles? Shorter...
I don't know, I wouldn't think that would happen until the caster was past like 45* though
but he says he already has death wobble
oh yeah I was gonna mention that...a hard-on for obscure concepts is definitely in your blood :D
Do what you want, but I'm pretty sure you're both mistaken. By shimming the axle to rotate your pinion, you are also tipping your caster forward, which is going to make the axle tend to steer...
that's what I mean, if it's a stock axle, doesn't a pinion pointing down (and thus rotating the caster back) make the steering tend to center, whereas shimming it to point the pinion up makes it tend...
looks to me like you just need a longer front driveshaft
I don't think the pinion pointing too far down should give you death wobble, I think that problem is coming from somewhere else
ha! I didn't suggest using yota springs...I just gave you their dimensions!
are we really at 26 pages already? Chadwell?
:flipoff2:
Talk to Brandon about cutting fingers "almost completely off"
pills? Whaddaya need those for old timer? Looks like we got a little oil pressure problem. She's running reeeeel hot!
redline and drop the clutch.
best way to find your weak spots without actually wheeling
:D
and nobody here has one laying around?
