Darby 05-26-2002, 03:43 PM Hey did some measuring today. Looks to me a 4.3 with a th350 with the downey 1.5 thick adapter and dual toy cases would be one inch shorter then the the stock sammy stuff. Has anyone tried this type of combo plan on toy axles with 35 boggers, have lots of mud to move around and sand too. Thanks for any feed back, later guys. Darby 05-27-2002, 07:19 AM Ooops meant just the drivetrain is one inch shorter not the motor, duh sorry guys. Darby rockzilla 05-29-2002, 03:40 PM i aint never done it before, but if ya can do it, you should go for it, would be a stout setup!! save ya some $$$ on rear axles too, dont have to fawk with havin em offset and all that chit! Rudezuk 05-29-2002, 04:24 PM JAKE from the board here put a 4.3 in his ride.....He said he would never do it again! Thats a pretty big motor to be putting in there! I have the 1.6 16v and it is plenty! Darby 05-29-2002, 05:21 PM Thanks for the wisdom guys. Decided to put toy axles and 33 boggers and leave it alone. I have an extracab toy. I think I'm going to build something like the rockstomper(aka mantis). He used toy motor. I plan on using one ton axles 44 and a big block and no lift. Great big bigblock induced grin.:rasta: Gonna keep my sammy reliable and bulletproof. | |
