That's a really nice looking ride!   Which axles are you running now? 
I would have thought you'd already have a d44 up front and the oem in the back.

Those MTRs?  How much did you get them for?  37's must be nice, air them down and you're still around a 35 and decent ground clearance!

Isn't a wggy a d44?  I thought you mentioned changing that one too.

it is but im goin to a wider d44 thats also high pinion

the waggy axle is only 60-1/2 wide , im changing out the rear axle to a ford 9 " which is 65" wide , even with 2 " spacers up front on the waggy axle thats only 64-1/2 wide

with the hp ford d44 and chevy outers ill be at 66-1/2" wide

Did you also have to jump up to 17" rims?


Title: Re: 37's
Post by: penski61 on June 03, 2010, 05:00:23 PM
yeah that sucked , pretty much the only 37's you can get in a 15" rim anymore are the super swampers and for something i drive to the trail and back i didnt want to go that route

i got lucky on the old style MTR's especially brand new

Gotcha.  I think the only issue with the HP44 is the gears available, iirc.
I know TheKing went from the nissan oem to a GM 14 bolt and is pretty happy with it.

Looks like bobbing your bed is next on the list ;D

just curious, what gearing are you using with the 37s. trying to decide on a ratio for the wifes xterra. I have a waggy front to rebuild and she wants to use the h233b, so its pretty much 5.13/14 or 5.87/89. she still likes to take it on the road now and then.

Post by: penski61 on January 13, 2011, 08:03:49 PM
well if your stuck on the h233b go with 5.13's , im running 5.38's(d44) and 5.42's (ford 9 )
