X2 on the 3 link all day long!

The locker should ratchet freely when I'm not in 4wd right? Tristin any input when ur hubs are locked, but in 2wd any issues with the Spartan?

 

I have the iro kit it's nice but if you got the money Clayton for sure

 

Thanks for the input guys I was leaning more towards that true 3link but I wanted to make sure I wasn't noticing something I should've

 

with my hubs locked and when I drive teh bronco I can't even tell I have a locker in there, so it should be the same for you cause of the unit bearings Spartans unly work under power through the drivetrain

 

When I'm in 2wd that is

 

i like the true three link im running the rock krawler brand only problem is if you have enough up travel the front pinion and the upper controle arm have a rub and tug and the drive shaft u joint always loses its not common but it does happen

 

been around just not posting mostly researching

 

Got ya

 

my spartan was fine. until my power steering went out on the way to moab.

 

so in my hay day of work i decided to take the month of november off i got home on the first and had plans to go to moab on the 14th what i was thinking i have no idea but i got the sawzall out and the next 9 days was hectic to say the least, so i just uploaded some pictures to my album go critique me give me advise/suggestions the rear is temp. from the hoop to the floor here is a teaser

 

Looks like you've been having a blast! I'm digging the back end. other than coils, & loppin off the whole back half... I'd just throw some supports in there & leave it open!

 

It looks good to me

 

3 link hands down, less binding/stress on the joints, less-no unloading. both do work great though.

yes it unlocks/ratches when power is not applied. and locks with throttle... however with an auto it has load most of the time unless your rolling with your foot off the gas...

I wouldn't even worry about it really. Its just fine for me but I have hydro-assist But to honestly answer your question. Mine blew donkey ***** turning at all when in 4wd and a locker up front. BUT mine was also hard to turn at low speeds and I would have to bump the throttle to get it to turn in parking lots at very slow speeds (before the locker) I then locked it and it became impossible in 4wd. I put hydro on and my steering was only a TINY bit better. I replaced the pump and BOOM it feels like the tires are off the ground all the time 4wd/2wd w/e... I think i had 2 things going, locked front end and a bad pump with little-no pressure or assist. Lock that *****! lol Cory has a used PSC pully he would sell for a good price I am sure if you want a little boost at low RPMS. I would recommend it I love mine. the WJ pump helps too lol

Good choice!

word!

 

I found my noise issue in my engine (finally took the time to tear it down today after work (**** work lol) pulled it and stripped the stroker. Found cyl 6 piston bad, worn and knocking or "slapping" with power. skirts are ****ed! lol did some measuring and found the bores are to big! damn machine shop... any way here is a pic



So the plan is to put the 4x4 cam, ported/polished head with performance springs rockers blah blah blah onto stock 4.0L bottom end and run it. :/
