Aha, thank you for that, i appreciate it. And for the info, I'll see what i can do about that In the meantime, i was thinking about painting this beast olive drab, with tan stencils on it. Going to call her sarge

Sounds good.

I am also looking to see if I can put 35s on my stock axles. I know that they are a little big, and they might not be able to handle them for a long period of time, but when the axles do go, that way i don't have to upgrade tires and the axles, just the axles. Anybody else think this is a good idea?

jebmccall

depends upon what rear diff you are running. more than likely a dana 35 which is weak.. but i have seen them hold up with someone that knows when to let off the skinny pedal.

im running a 29 spline 8.25 stock axle shafts and 4.56 gears in the rear
dana30 in the front, 4.56s, chromolys and a lockright
running 35 inch km2s and i wheel it monthly and they have held up so far. the only other thing i want to do is put discs on the rear and it will do just fine.

I figure they will hold up for a couple of trips as long as i go easy on them, and i do need to regear. I guess I'll start shopping for 35s, cuz those bald tires have got to go!! Thanks for the input!

Does that rear axle have 4 wheels on it or am I just uneducated on ford f250 Dana 60 axles?

If it is a dually axle it's a good thing you abandoned that idea cuz there's nothing more hideous than having to much axle where there shouldn't be.

Lol, that thing is hideous. But i wasn't planning on keeping both wheels on there. I was going to sell those and replace them with more normal wheels. Would have been full width, and more trouble than it's worth right now.

there are plenty enough people on here running 35s on stock axles, they will hold up better than you expect, but still dont go nuts on them. find out first if you do have a dana 35 rear end because that would be worth swapping out before the 35s... look in the stickies in the oem discussion and there is a page for axle identification

Atmos

eh. I just went to 35's. I feel the need for brake upgrades and 1 ton steering. my 4.56's barely cut it on the freeway. you're looking at big money into these axles to comfortably handle 35's on stock axles
once you get to that point though yeah 35's are good for stock axles

diego94

agreed there is a difference between doing it and doing it comfortably

She had some death wobble something awful, and i have replaced some suspension bushings and the stabilizer. But because of that damn tire i haven't been able to see if that had been cured, so i don't know if she's even road worthy right now. But once i get her going on the roads, we shall see if I cured the wobble, then on to bigger and better.
