    what do you want to do with it?

    Prerun at race speed? TTB


    Cruise in the Desert, have a good time, and pull out your 2wd friends stuck in the sand? A arm, LT or Not


    Build a radical A arm rock racer and make all the Solid axle guys look like bitches even after you change out your trans? Then get a Campbell built A arm rock racer.

    Simon... how strong are the front axles on the TTBs... do they make HD axles for those.... some one was telling me you just Extend them by welding a sleeve in them... that sounds so sketch...

    mine are stock length.. so for now im running stock axles i do have a # of company that makes 4130 axles if they give me any troubles.

    cut and sleave is only if u plan on using 4x to just get yourself unstuck. not if u plan on running in 4x for any length of time.

    Fuck Shannon Cambell. Does he forgot that his father lost his leg rock crawling? I'm all for carnage spectating, but at least give the people in the flipped buggy a chance to GTFO.

    Oh yeah and he was DQed because he CHEATED.

    Do you mean get out of the flopped truck or get the truck out of the way?

    If you mean get out of the truck then IMO they would be in more danger outside of the vehicle then strapped in with window nets and body panels.

    He also waited till they where going nowhere on their side before he passed them.

    anyway it's a mute point. on to the TTB A arms discussion.

    TTB All the way.

    Just a matter of finding the right coils. Most of the TTB coils are up in the 450-500 PPi range and literally suck offroad.
