Re: Drill Bits

Re: Lets Talk Full Floater

When installing a full floater the bearings have to have a spacer between them. If i were to do it again I would look into a unit bearing. I wonder if the housing could accept the big UB Sandy cone does the spacer correctly on a big 9" What the spacer does is make 2 bearings work like a UB to preven...

Re: Not NAPA Starters

Just curious what is wrong with a stock ford unit?
My stock unit was good after 15 years in the desert and a huge number of miles.
My latest starter for the EB is from NAPA and made in china. Not worried it will be a problem. Hey it is just a starter - right?

Re: Ford 9" Disc Brake Options - Advice?

Todd reminded me about my wilwood setup. The movement of the retaining plate on my axle resulted in bent retaining plate which is why I switched to Varga/Ford calipers. Those wilwood plates were not very strong due to thickness.

Re: Ford 9" Disc Brake Options - Advice?

Stan, about the ebrake. Do you want drums or mechanical calipers. Both have advantages and disadvantages. For off road use the non drum e brake has the advantage of no rocks caught in the drum area. The big disadvantage of the no drum is of much less stopping power. The brake will hold the rig on sl...

Re: Rear Interior Cargo Light conversions??

Pretty easy to find LED swaps off the web. They do not cost much . I had them on all my lights - doors overhead and cargo. And noticeable improvement. I even noticed there was a guy that sold all of them as a package. I suspect I saw that on EBAY? The overhead and cargo needed to have some shoe glue...

I cannot tell how to get about heated seats, but I think they are universally available. Order Sasquatch with the required suspension for tall tires/gears. Sell the beadlock ready rims and 35" tires probably make a profit. You will still get many things you may not want because ford has to sell to t...
