Yea standard cooling on these trucks sucks if your towing heavy

thats the thing I aint towing and it still goes up!

Well somethings wrong there then.

Truck goes very well but doesn’t stop so good. I’ve just changed to some good vented and drilled discs and race pads on the front and I’m currently rebuilding an old old axle shell I have to have disc brakes on the rear using a shogun 3.0 disc axle. Same diff. Just wondered if anyone had done anything like this before I go balls deep into swap. All in or nout. U know me.

Ian on the other forum did it

#229 by Mallinman , Tue Sep 17, 2019 9:10 pm

Did it work??

#230 by 123hotchef , Tue Sep 17, 2019 9:14 pm

yeh man i saw it at wales last year he has had it on years now mate

#231 by Mallinman , Tue Sep 17, 2019 9:18 pm

Well that’s good news then. Means my plan is obviously a good one as some one else has already had the same plan. I shall crack on.

dont forget the pics mate, are you going to use coils? or keep the leafs?

#233 by Mallinman , Tue Sep 17, 2019 9:50 pm

Keep the leaves. I frequently put a lot of weight in it and wouldn’t like to put that weight onto coils. And I don’t want to throw away my pretty extended shackles that I built. Lol

SOA
SPRINGS OVER AXLE.

Because it’s not so stable doing 70 round tight bends now. Don’t think it would help much. Lol

it might be better as axle is closer to the floor

Please can you supply the calculations for your theory,as some of the newbies may want to follow suit.

Does he mean floor of truck or the actual ground?

#245 by 123hotchef , Fri Sep 20, 2019 8:21 am

the ground

#246 by Mallinman , Fri Sep 20, 2019 8:41 am

Chef. Surely if the springs are on the top or the bottom then the axle will still be in the same place. Only changing tyre size will change the axle to ground height.
Have you dyed your hair recently????
