Re: CV jointed TTB

Re: CV jointed TTB

The axles are in the testing stage and hopefully we will be ready to be able to take orders around mid June.

Re: CV jointed TTB

The pic I posted of our shaft is at the max angle, about 40-45° I think.
I'd like to point out also that we can do custom length shafts for cut and extended beams for no extra charge.

Re: CV jointed TTB

I brought in my 44 hd shafts and we're working on a set for my dana 50. As soon as I get my boat sides finished and a full skid pan made I'm gonna try to make it to a few off road parks. I'm not setting a date for when they'll be ready for sale yet but hopefully it will be this spring. 2000 dollars ...

Re: CV jointed TTB

I don't suppose anybody has or knows where I can get a drawing of the bolt in style shaft for the ttb.

Re: CV jointed TTB

The current price is set at 1995$. I know its high but our basic D44 straight axle kit is 1285$. The TTB shafts require more parts and more machining. Also keep in mind our D44 solid axle shafts are capable of up to 40" tires. All the shafts are 4340 and the joints are 300m. They will have the same ...

Re: CV jointed TTB

CV joints are stronger and can operating at greater angles than u- joints.

Re: CV jointed TTB

It is the same as the joint in our solid axle dana 44 kits, about 3.75".

Re: CV jointed TTB

Don't know Sean has look at one of those. If somebody has a shaft they want to send to us we can make the bar.

Re: CV jointed TTB

The first set of D44 ttb axles have been sent out for testing. Here's a picture of the passenger side shaft assembly. The differential stub is on the top and the wheel stub on the bottom.

Re: CV jointed TTB

RCV joints are the bomb to replace the Brifields, I read that they do not recommend putting them on a daily drive or any freeway driving with the RCV joints? Can you shed some light on why? Thanks Our axles CAN be run on a dd and are ok for freeway use. Maintenance wise they are basically they are ...

Re: CV jointed TTB

No big hurry I'd be surprised if it were over 45*. I'm just trying to see if it might be a feasible idea. Other that custom axle sets does anyone even make a set of chromoly shafts for the ttb. They have a design for the dana 44 but i haven't seen a finished product let alone a print. If nothing els...

Re: CV jointed TTB

If someone could find out what the max angle is on a long travel setup that would be very helpful. I know it will likely vary per truck but it would be nice to have a close number.

Re: CV jointed TTB

Its all in the design stage right now. I'm going to use my dana 50 to test it and work out the bugs :mrgreen:. I'm hoping it won't be more expensive than our dana 60 axles. Material will be mostly 4340 with some parts being 300m. There has been some playing with the dana 44 ttb already so i'm hoping...

Re: CV jointed TTB

No pics but if i remember when I go back to work after the weekend I'll post a pic of the joint. Here is a pic of our dana 44 axle set that uses the same joint.

CV jointed -Threads merged.

Just curious if anyone would ever buy a cv jointed (ball type) set of shafts for a TTB axle. If you have ever seen a RCV Performance Dana 44 axle set those are the joint I'm thinking of using. I won't be setting the price for it but I would like to keep it reasonable i.e. cheaper than a decked out d...
