After a very, very long hiatus... I have brought Beulah out of retirement to get her road worthy for the winter... something has happened to the charging system.. i have fresh dom tubing for a custom rear bumper, HID lighting, finish rear disc conversion... and possibly add the long and...

needed to stay away from one rock that destroyed my front yoke... and needed tires with more of an aggressive bite. I cant doo alot of wheel spin that is required... and so most buggies that run up that staircase spin tires to help the momentum...

replacement front Dana 60 yoke is now ordered..... Hoping this is the last one i break.....

it will depend on what TC you go with.... use your search tools.... there's been many people here who have done what your about to go through... http://www.steelsoldiers.com/forumdisplay.php?151-CUCV-Hot-Rodding-and-Modification i seen several posts regarding what your wanting to do...

the 4l80 has the same ratio as the current TM 400 but with the OD.... and it will be Stronger than the 700R4.... So, yes it will be worth it... Another point to remember... you will need a shift controller for the 4L80

Rich, would these fit on the Dana60 FT with recentered H1 rims on 37" ? nevermind Rich.. you had answered me back in May of 2013... they will work... just have to use part #370-800 and advise i need the flat ones.... thanks..

finally did a little trail riding last weekend... shes just a stout as ever.... Still have a fairly decent list of upgrades yet to do.... Getting married, and buying a house... has slowed my build.... way down.... but.. Part of it I guess... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgg1hVzUbJE

Look at the gear spacing / ratio between the 700r4 and 4l80E... i think you would be better off with the 4l80e... IMHO... i recently picked up one at a scrap yard for $50.00 and its gonna cost 75.00 to have it gone thru...

i concur... this would be the easiest setup to get what you want.....

changed out voltage regulator in Alt 1.... again.... for the 3rd time..... Price 21.95... the chance to be on the 2nd page of this thread on Part 2 the sequel..... Priceless....:naner:

it looks as though from the pic... he's running wheel spacers as well... Notice its a 12b H1 wheel, that's not re-centered. and the hub isn't out as far..

the shackle flip did it....

really interested in this setup.... and how it will work on your rig, can you Pm me the model numbers for the front and rear? as I have the same axle setup as you... DUH... nevermind... re read your post...lol I need more coffee... Would still like to know if you have to add more beads....

it was easy.... I recentered axles to wheel wells.. and measured and squared up where the replacement spring perches sat. ( starting at the front perch of rear axle,) This was the most critical part, as if you wind up being off, it will never track or drive straight.. make several measurents...

No worries on the 20 questions... it does pretty decent onroad... Im happy with it's manners.... it does have a touch more body roll, and old school road manners... but Iam used to it and don't let anyone else drive it. Now granted, with the current wheel size, and the gearing from 400, I...

??? I don't have a 465... I have the original TM400 I'm in the process of gathering parts to install a 4L80... as far as parts go.. I went with the spring perch kit, and flip shakle kit from them... but I also swapped out all 4 Springs with rear 1/2ton truck springs... ( 52" ) google...
