Who said an inverted "V" axle was a bad idea?

[bucketokarma]

Looks pretty fucking sick to me!

mysteryman3846 (7:29:35 PM): that is insane
Samradone (7:30:07 PM): i could never run one
Samradone (7:30:13 PM): would be up in mah oil pan
mysteryman3846 (7:30:27 PM): yea buggy only shit
mysteryman3846 (7:30:30 PM): lol
mysteryman3846 (7:30:37 PM): fucking $8600 dollars for the fron
mysteryman3846 (7:30:43 PM): 7500 for the rear
Samradone (7:30:54 PM): not bad price imo
mysteryman3846 (7:31:14 PM): i guess you can spend more than half that on a 609
Samradone (7:32:04 PM): If you have Atomic axles and 33- inch tires, your buddy with Dana 60s and 44-inch tires has less clearance than you
mysteryman3846 (7:32:31 PM): wow
mysteryman3846 (7:32:32 PM): lol
FN Phil90 (7:35:09 PM): back
Samradone (7:35:16 PM): HAYYY

Samradone (7:36:09 PM): lol
FN Phil90 (7:36:17 PM): so fucking awesome
FN Phil90 (7:36:21 PM): high clearance axles
mysteryman3846 (7:36:35 PM): haha
Samradone (7:36:37 PM): if i ran them, my diff would be resting on my oil pan
FN Phil90 (7:36:38 PM): im not even gonna ask how much they cost
Samradone (7:36:48 PM): 7500 for a rear
FN Phil90 (7:36:50 PM): that is buggy only shit sam
FN Phil90 (7:36:50 PM): hahah
FN Phil90 (7:36:53 PM): HOLY FUCK 8 GRAND??

Samradone (7:38:42 PM): only evan

[bucketokarma]

When I mentioned this, I got laughed at.... What the hell?

[Even]

Samradone (7:38:42 PM): only evan
Samradone (7:38:45 PM): can fuck up a yoke swap

[Ktmracer419]

Samradone (7:46:58 PM): LOOK AT WHAT SHANE JUST POSTED
FN Phil90 (7:47:31 PM): LOL
FN Phil90 (7:47:48 PM): he fucking said that because he wanted to build one and i said it was a stupid idea
FN Phil90 (7:47:49 PM): lolol
FN Phil90 (7:48:08 PM): 'why would you build an axle like that if you cant even afford to swap axles?'
FN Phil90 (7:48:17 PM): and he took it as saying it was a stupid idea in general

[Ktmracer419]

LOL

looks like i forgot to edit that out

STILL STANDS

[Even]

you sis guys are a bunch of meanies, i'm going back to SIRA

[bucketokarma]

It wasn't that convo I was referring to. I had been talking about the feasibility of this style set-up in general, and alot of people called me stupid, saying that it just wouldn't/couldn't work.

I STILL THINK it is a stupid idea unless you have a goddamn moon buggy that needs more clearance and 8 grand to drop on ONE axle.

Oh. I still think the only feasible way you can get it to work is to have A LOT of money.

[Ruecifur]

i'd rather put money into 404's

[Ktmracer419]

yea generally buggy only shit.

I never said it couldn't work. I have seen drawings of these axles a couple years before they began selling them. its either dookin ass u joints or dookin ass birfields in there. I would lean towards the birfields, because thats alot o u joints in thur and birfields are the same strength no matter what angle they are at, u joints get weaker the more of an angle they are at. I can't see this setup being feasable in any street driven rig, seems like lots of things you don't wan't to wear out, and may be more vibration-prone.

[Ruecifur]

they are cv's... read the faq page they have up

[Ktmracer419]

they are cv's... read the faq page they have up

NO

yoke mystery = not my fault
