Ruffstuff Axle Simple Swap Kit! - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

Gravel Maker · 08-01-2007, 11:30 AM

This is the basic kit essential for an Axle swap, more items could be added but this is the bare minimum, You will receive 1 pair of our 3/8" thick A50 Steel U-Bolt plates with 3 pin mounting options, a pair of our Spring Perches with the same pin option to match, 4 - 10" x 5/8" Fine thread Grade 8 U-Bolts with 1/4" thick cut Hardened washers and real Ubolt Hardened Tallnuts, and a pair of Shock Brackets. This will get your Axle under the rig. BTW, this is NOT a Chinese made product that just can't hang with the big kids, this IS the Big Kid.

These go for $127.50 a kit before the Discount!

BTW, our Ubolts are the correct size for your Axle, not 1 size fits all.......these are offered with 8 Axle diameters and 5 Leaf Spring perch widths.........UPDATE.........Now also available in 3.5" D70/Sterling diameters & D60 GM, Ford, & Dodge front swaps too! And I almost forgot, Ford fullsize 3" Leaf Spring widths also......

Big sellers too! With a real thickness to handle the stress you throw at them without bending and then loosening!

Gravel Maker · 09-05-2007, 07:28 PM

My idea is to do anything to prevent breakdowns before they happen, when we build we build strong, lightweight causes the breakdown in the first place. Something we all like to avoid, I know, when its your turn its still going to happen but building stronger will keep it from being your "turn" a lot less often!

Gravel Maker · 09-17-2007, 11:38 PM

I get alot of calls on these so here they are again, back where you can see them!

Gravel Maker · 11-04-2007, 09:59 AM

With the variety of spring perches we make (12 different ones) and the various spring widths (4 different ubolt plates) and the ubolts we carry 7 different sizes) we can always make one of these up custom for you if you don't see what you need, give us a call on these and all of your suspension needs!

jpfrk2001 · 11-04-2007, 07:31 PM

I just need a u-bolt kit for my custom application. Its 1983 jeep J-20 axles in a YJ using SUA configuration. I am willing to trim to fit after install.

PM me for more details.

Gravel Maker · 11-04-2007, 08:57 PM

I still work 7 days a week and from 6AM - 10PM or so, I gotta say the pm thing causes alot of errors and a phone call really works.....

Gravel Maker · 11-08-2007, 11:52 PM

The top of the heap!

Gravel Maker · 11-15-2007, 12:26 PM

I am learning thats one of the things that make us different!

Gravel Maker · 11-24-2007, 08:26 AM

Great Festivus gift for the person thinking about SOA or a new rear.....

Don't see many that big, not that we can't make one but i'd like to estimate how popular they may be.....

Big91RustyBucket · 12-03-2007, 03:43 AM

Yeah I feel ya Dan. I doubt they are that popular. I haven't found anyone that makes them. I guess I might have to make My own.

Gravel Maker · 12-06-2007, 11:24 PM

What the hell, you can't have too many choices!

Gravel Maker · 12-14-2007, 11:04 PM

Go a long, long way......I am answering the phone from 8am - 8pm 7 days a week until Christmas......call away, we are here and we pick it up when it rings too!

Gravel Maker · 12-23-2007, 12:24 PM

We have over 1000 perches in the different sizes and the Ubolt Plates to match so why not? Instead of our normal $110 price these are $95 until the end of the year. The normal price is already more than 15% of the prices if you bought them individually so this really adds up!

Gravel Maker · 12-25-2007, 10:40 PM

At $95 a kit this is a screaming deal!

Gravel Maker · 01-02-2008, 08:52 AM

But after the PBB10 discount these are only $99 anyway.......Might as well be a sale for Pirate members!

Gravel Maker · 01-06-2008, 08:06 PM

These are the best option if you haven't yet decided to link it up! Now available in Ford 3" spring sizes, I am seeing a few Toy guys ruunning ford 3" springs lately......Also now available in 2 D60 front axle variations!

Gravel Maker · 01-10-2008, 11:57 PM

Spring is around the corner! You got to build it before you can use it......

Gravel Maker · 01-14-2008, 08:44 PM

Now also available in 3.5" D70/Sterling diameters & D60 GM & Ford front swaps too! And Ford fullsize 3" Leaf Spring widths also, Ubolt Plates, Spring Perches, Spring hangers, & Shackle Hangers......
