Shave a 11.5" AAM...Seriously?

(1/4) > >>

Flyin6:
Now I think the AAM 11.5 is about as beefy and strong a part as has ever been installed in a truck.

Now one can shave it and truss it up?

Is this in case you air drop your buggy from a C-130 into mountainous terrain???

Shawn-ee??

Meh, kinda silly.......

They’re more expensive axles to begin with, big boat anchors and expensive to build. I guess if you’re  wheeling your Duramax then ok, but how many people will do that? A 14 bolt 10.5 is still a better less expensive option. Rock bouncer guys running them coast side in the front with huge tires and tons of hp/tq and best they can do is bust ring gears. So we build a load bolted cover for them and it’s more or less bulletproof then.

My 2 cents

KensAuto:
Come on Shawn. Have you seen the curbing around the mulch beds?

stlaser:
You know, good point as I hadn’t considered that!  :tongue:

He's right!

And at our mall here, they painted the curbing with some axle bustin' yellow paint stuff!

Man, you get on that stuff and you're a goner, 11.5 axle or not!
