Krew Kab Klogger

I predict with the awesomeness of 42" TSLs, you will need an anti-wrap bar.

Anyone have a picture of a good front anti-wrap bar? I am pretty sure I have the rear figured out.

Me no got it the anti wrap bar. No problems.

I knew you'd succumb.

this works well

[cj nut]

yes, you must keep the klogger. After all who is karl without the klogger? but in all seriousness Im dissapointed that ford never made a TTB60.... The klogger would have really loved that....Just think 42's on a TTB 60....

Last weekend Coop, Robbie and Jerry came over, we drank some beers and go the front mount tacked on. I played with number of springs in the pack and the location of the front mount and cmae up with this. It has about 8" of travel from normal load to full droop.

Sweet jack stand!

[KrazyKarl02]

The keg has no weight on it, the Jack stands have weight on them, I threw the keg in there "just in case"

You never had 8"s of droop when I was around.

8"? you should be able to get a little more, i think mine was 13-14 and cooks should be about the same. But then again its not all about the length of travel, but how its used right?

That is not full up travel, that is just from how the truck would sit on level surface to full droop, so I wouuld expect 12" or so of total travel. This is also without the axle pulling down the spring too.

Mr. Crouch, do you have any doubler crossmember pics?

Seems some people (mostly those w/o an ORD adapter) support the 205 on the acccess plate or in the yoke area.

I plan on a crossmember under the adapter bc the adpater has 2 threaded holes which you cant actually see in the alst pic, but you can see the flat part of the adapter that sits on the crossmember. The bolts thread up into the adapter.

[Sharpe]

The second pic, why the F would you go to that much trouble to make the plates to go over the yoke seal retainer and access plate when there are two 1/2" threaded holes RIGHT THERE?? In general, I dont like the idea of plates like that that mount to something that retains fluid. Same concept as mounting a ram to a diff cover. The stress causes leaks, F that.

Just for JB, here are some pic's. I still have not made my "3rd" cross member for the 205, I need to, but I wheeled it like this in Clayton last December and at Alto in October. The tube is 1.75" 0.120 HREW. In Clayton I drug it on some stuff, and it dented about an 1/8", I am thinking about re-doing it with some 1.75" 0.250" DOM (that I already have), but I might just drink beer instead.

Here is one from the rear (insert Ed joke here), you can see where it scraped in Clayton, there is one from the side to show how low it hangs.

[KrazyKarl02]

Here is a picture of my front shaft (insert second Ed joke here), I just 45'd the tube and put it together. One more tricky thing, to clear my doubler shifters (Off Road Design 3 stick) and still be close to the trans mount, I had to rotate the entire thing about 10 degrees forward. So where my cross member goes from bushing to verticle, it is not at 90 degrees, it is like at 80 degrees towards the front of the truck. The shifters are freaking close!

Second photo shows my shifters, when you get in you just have to ignore the wholes for the frame in the back and the gaping holes for the cage.....

[Sparling]

Could you flip the angle so it goes up instead of down and run the crossmember higher? Maybe use some square/rectangle tube with .25" plate welded to the bottom for the T-case mount? It's hard to tell what kind of room you have down there.
