Kong's and I came up with a nice axle jig. So I thought I'd do a nice writeup on shaving,trussing and turning knuckles on a Toy housing over the next week or so. The plan is to turn the pinion up 25* to point at the t-case and put 8* of caster in the knuckles
to help control death wobble. Severe use has been bending even the '85 housings with 37" tires so we will be adding a nice beefy truss. This housing is destined for a coilover front end. Stay tuned......

the knuckle end of the housing jig

rear axle

Good stuff...three-link, four-link, radius arms? Please, some detailed pics about straightening a bent housing. The jig looks way clean!

Now you can build an all toyota rear steer axle and get the knuckles lined up easier.

Its going in a four link rig.

I will also be able to build custom width housings, left hand diff, Taco SAS housings, and full awn custom stuff. I have plenty of bent stuff to experiment on different straightening methods, so I will come up with something. I am thinking of just re-. tubing some ala custom 9" housings. Some .250 wall 4130 dom would make for some hella strong housings.

just wanted to keep up with this write up

I look forward to your writeup on the jig and the cut and turn process. How far do you think you can go before you run into issues with the pinion bearing becoming starved for oil? 25* seems like alot.

Do you want to share drawings of the jig? If so, would you e-mail them to me.

TIA

Question,
If we were able to have the parts for the jigs produced in quantity to get the price down, would there be interest.
I'm thinking $390.00

zags good tech. wack and weld method usually used in axle modifications bogus. pictures did not showalignment bar ends. was it machined between centers on a lathe or did you use ground shafting?picture did not depict either being old sob i dont see as well as i used too. keep up the good work. currently building fixtures to shorten dana 44 60 70 the right way if they are not being retubed
