I have an opportunity to trade this dude his 36" m/t (bias) for my 33" m/t (radial) - sounds like a good deal right well here is the kicker. I have an 30/20 setup on my cj5. If i were to truss the 20 and weld the tubes and put a single axle in it would it hold up ok. FYI - will probably use the rig mostly to do some novice level wheeling as well as use it to cut around town in.

thanks for your input :smokin:

You know the thing that pisses me off :mad3: - you get flamed when you ask a question in the hardcore board - But yet you can't get any fawking answers on the non-hardcore boards. It is a rarity to get 50+ replies on this board and nearly all the threads in the hardcore section have at least that! You want us to keep our stupid questions off your boards "then dont be a prick and pass a little knowledge down to the guys trying to learn something about this shit" :flipoff2:

..Seriously dude? Your thread hasn't even been up for an hour. ..The majority of the people on this board are at the beginning of their work day. Yeah, they're at WORK, not trolling Pirate. Give a motherfucker time to get off work, go home, relax for a minute or two with his family, maybe actually lift a wrench on his Jeep, then maybe come through and answer your dumbass question.

The AMC 20 will be fine for moderate wheeling with smart driving, the 30 will be fine for mall crawling and not much more (even with chromo shafts,) you WILL need to regear, and you do NOT want a bias ply tire for "cutting around town."

I never say this, but you need to go back to JF and eat a bag of dicks on the way.

Might be alot to throw on that 2 piece shaft in the 20. And like was previously said, the 30 will not hold up to those stock, or with chromos for that matter.

Im going to guess there was a response in the middle of the first two that got deleted, but if there wasnt, and you cant wait HALF AN HOUR FOR A RESPONSE.......then good luck getting any info after that outburst.

My apology for the outburst! First of all I wasn't necessarily talking about the post I put up this morning - it was more of an "in-general" comment". I mean go look at the reply counts, some people that posted days/months ago still havent gotten any replies, then go see if you can find any in the hardcore section that dont have replies. Dont get me wrong I would rather read the hardcore threads to, I am simply saying.

With regard to the "you need to go back to JF and eat a bag of dicks on the way" - :flipoff:

Thanks for the answers to my original question.

If you dont like the responses that you are getting here on PBB then you are more than welcome to go find a different forum to ask questions on....:smokin:

Take some personal fucking initiative and do a search newb, this topic has been beat to fucking death. WTF do you mean IF you put a single one piece axle in it? Why doesn't it have one piece axles already, thats pretty much the starting mod for wheeling a 20. :shaking: Bring your fairy piece of faggotry of a CJ5 back to JU. If you have to ask if you CJ5 is ready for 36s then its probably not. And do you really think that trussing an axle is gonna make it hold up to larger tires, you understand the physics behind torque and how its measured correct? You don't want to come in here and start shooting your mouth off. You have ALOT of reading to do, get to it.

0311 Infantry - for your information I do think the mechanical knowledge here on PBB is second to none - which is why I brought my inferior question here.


"Bring your fairy piece of faggotry of a CJ5 back to JU." - :lmao:


I am headed to take some personal fucking initiative..

without a doubt, almost every thread titled "quick question" really should be titled "I want a quick answer"...

most things can be found with search and if search fails, then google is your second best friend.

see, and now thanks to your "quick question" HILAKE2 spent the five seconds and found your answers... you owe him 5 seconds of your life.
