copy the IMG code and paste, like this:







I would not narrow the 14b to 48"! Thats 11" shorter than the original axle! Get a wheel with more back spacing at least!

IMO, narrowing is a waste of time and money.

my bad. i meant the stock steering and links. i feel that up to about 33's are best and then from there you had better strengthen it for serious off roading without eventual breakage from the strain. It all depends how hardcore you drive your rig in the end i guess.

G&R, you really don't get into breakage until you get past 35's with lockers. Most of the montero guys down here in Az are running 35's with crawler gears and lockers, and most of the trails we do are serious rock crawling trails. I haven't seen a whole lot of breakage, mostly rock damage like mashed doors and such. But you are right with 33's you'd probably never be able to break anything no matter what kind of wheeling.

Sorry if i missed it but what size tires are you planning on running on this??

Interested on seeing how manage it fit a 4 link in the front too. Hope it all comes out as you planned should be a pretty sick rig if it does. I'm watching this one
