Yeh the MQ diff needs to be rotated. Hmm I'll get the guy to confirm the ratio on the MQ diff. How do you know what the ratio is? Do you have to open it up? Is it stamped on the housing by any chance?

The GQ diff is to wide. What you going to do about the rear? Change that as well?

Rear carrier hinge

Hey everyone, hope all is well.

Silly question, but what/how/where does everyone buy those stub axels that you guys weld to the rear bar and attack rear carriers. Do you have to get the sleeve machined and also how does the bearing system work?

Just curious as I want to make up a carrier soon.

Don't forget with solid colours, such as white, it's easy to blend a small area thats damaged and buff it out. Where as candy's, metallic, flakes etc are aren't as easy to blend.

A good solid 2K job will last along time and is easy to repair.

You can cut most of the dust out of 2k Solid, where as COB you can't really do much in that sense.
