problem is that turns an easy job into a big expensive job that will require more mods=money (mods to steering gq to gu)(wheelbase is 50mm wider on gu) yes i could use spacers on rear wheels but not allowed APPARENTLY :roll: at 4x4 masters series or on road :x what to do decisions decisions :?

this is the kind of feedback i need as i love the loud pedal although locked i dont need it as much but its auto lokka so cant switch it off so NEED STRONG CVs , what about axles?

Hi Mate i have been useing Cals Cv and axles for over 2 years now in a winch challenge truck and although they have been clicking for over a year now we still cant break them this is in a highly modified intercooled turbo diesel,like you we got sick of changeing CVs during comps ,since swapping over we have given it death prob driven it harder and used front locker more but still all good .the cost would prob work out cheaper in the end and you end up with a reliable truck ..cheers.Steve
