What shafts ect

(1/2) > >>

bombx3:
I am running 37" boggers and want to upgrade my running gear,i want to get the right set up first time round as it costs loads.I have in mind arb,s and full ashcroft shafts and cv,s.If anyone has a better system and off the shelf parts i would like to know

Muddy:
toyota axles or portals.

Eeyore:
I've heard the 37" out stretch even the 'yota axles (everythin' tends to a limit I guess).

From flicking around the various forums, the gneral buzz would seem to be if you're running rover axles then the Ashcroft stuff (CVs esp.) is about as good as it gets. Not cheap, but seemingly very tough.

Portals is another way to go, but the weight penalty will be horrendous (and these wagons ain't light at the best of times!)

Tommo:
lots of other advantages to portals though, ground clearence etc. but not always easy to get hold of

smo:
Ashcroft kit is about as good as it gets in the UK....personally i have Jac Mac, which is awsome stuff and even more expensive altho shall be using ashcroft cv's
