Today I got after the rear suspension (again).

Before adding the Carli stuff, the rear is about level with the front.

JR, isn't that against the law out there in California. Killing that tree like that, LOL

Sam,  from what I can see those look like they will make some nice slabs

That'll work!^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Moving along!
Hope you get the nice ride you’re after first round this time.

Just caught the 12 bolts in the rear axles.
I think it was 8 in the 11.5, so that one has been beefed up considerably.

It is apparently. I chatted with Tate this morning about it. He sent me some detailed information about that axle.
We can settle the argument about which kind of differential is in there. It is a two-piece differential with internal clutches preloaded by some Belville washers. Apparently, it is possible to rebuild it. There are 30, 32 and 33 spline axles depending on what truck you are driving. The dually gets the mutant strong stuff. That is why everything seems so darned oversized in the pics of my truck axle.

Toys are good. Finally got my Kubota running again, slowed me down a lot!
