How are drive shaft angles with this centered set up? Are you get any bad vibes?

George




No vibes whatsoever. The angle is minimal, no more that the rear shaft on a 3 inch lift. Besides, I dont ever drive down the hwy in 4wd anyway since I have a locker in the front. The closest I ever come is leaving the hubs locked in while running to a gas station or trail head.

My last score was 1180 on a 23 degree ramp with air pressure at 6 psi. That is the pressure I wheel at.


Not at Moab, you were running like 12   ;D

Ever figure out who pumped up your tires ?

Mike,
From what your say you have something like this? Just with wide mounting points.

Hi Mike, On those OME's do you have the top dropped to maximize travel? What happened with that longer Chevy strut you were working on awhile back?

They have the same amount of droop as when I had the rear struts out of a Lumina in there. With the OMEs I lost a little bit of up travel compared to the Luminas but still more than travel than a stock strut. I took the Lumina struts out cause they were unreliable. RTI is not as important as reliability. I had several of them lock up after just a few thousand miles. The travel was nice but I couldnt put up with the failure. The OMEs are totally reliable.

Im pretty sure it was just me not paying attention when I was airing down. I must have done something wrong. I cant imagine someone actually airing up my tires. ::) I just wish I would have figured it out earlier in the week! I should have figured that one out from the feel of the vehicle.  :-[Ever wanna just kick your own ass! ;D

That's funny, cause I was thinking the tires
looked a little hard, I mean I run mine at
5 PSI for wheeling, but I figured, hey, it's
your truck, you know where you like your
tires inflated to  ;)  Sorry I should have
said somthing when I noticed

Heres the deal...::) On my last day in moab last year at the end of the last trail I couldnt get up something that I did so easily last year. At that point I knew something wasnt quite right. I got out and checked my tires and they were at 12psi. I wheel at 6. I swear I aired them down all the way but... ??? Who knows what happened. :-/ All I know is I wish I had figured it out about 7 days earlier!  :P

You know what makes me mad about all this is that no one sells this stuff.  I mean for someone like me who doesn't have access to the eq.   :-/  I guess its time to start making a workshop.  Will just have to tell the wife it for all the stuff that I work in around the house ::)
