so i realized why my drive shaft broke on me one of the tabs on my yoke is broken off what a pita hopefully quadratec can get me one by saterday

 

Half doors are legal. I was told as long as it has a frame hinges and latch your fine

 

So tube doors are good because the have a frame hinge and latch?

 

Yes. My buddy is a mechanic and has tube doors on his and its chopped and is all legal

 

I had the same thing happen. Blew out a u joint which took out the ears on the yoke. If you dont have a good impact gun be prepared to bust a nut on that pinion nut haha.

 

Yea I have a good impact still think its gonna suck

 

They're not too bad really. The yoke isn't pressed on at all so once you pop that nut loose you're good to go. I didn't have a powerful enough impact back when I blew my yoke out and had to do it by hand. When I took my bent 1/2" breaker bar back to sears to exchange it they asked how the hell I bent it to which I responded "I own a lifted Jeep" haha.

 

Anybody lookin for some tires for a stocker or budget boost? I have my old ones up for sale.

What back spacing would you guys recommend for 11.5" wide tires on 5x8 rims to keep them legal for my DD?

 

I wanna say 4"

 

4" and some new flares. They'll be way past stock flares

 

With 4" BS you'll be rubbing control arms turning fyi.

 

Well I was told that the tires cant stick out further than 3" from the body. So when you say way past stock flares, will it be further than 3" from body?

ahh man really? so should I go with 3.75" BS? I think I heard that with anything but 4" I'll wear stuff out quicker... Not sure what to do

 

I'm running 12.50 tires on 3.75" backspacing and have absolutely no rubbing, so 11.50s on 4" should be fine. As far as how far your tires stick out, that all depends on who does your inspection. I think the rule is no more than 1" from the flare, and the flare cant be more than 3" wide unless it was like that from the factory

 

Ok. thanks for the help. I got a while till I save up to decide exactly what i want.
