Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Ok, well with the GQ diffs going into the Rangie, and seeing i'm sticking with the rangie transfer, the tailshaft angle for the rear may become a problem.

The thing will not be a daily driver but will have some decent power going thru it with the 350 chev, and some decent traction with 38" TSL's and lockers.

What I want to know is if you guys think the rangie shaft and uni's will stand up to it or should I be looking for, say, an F100 tailshft and cut it down.

The diff to pinon vertical angle won't be huge as it will only be 2-3" lift but there will also be the offset angle from D/S output from the transfer to centre pumpkin on the diff.

I think I would prefer to run REALLY BIG UNI"S rather than a double cardin as it will be eaiser and cheaper to repair and I feel more reliable over all. But I would love to hear your thoughts and comments.

Cheers

A double carden will vibrate in that application cause to use a double carden the single uni joint needs to be straight. Normally people put a double at the transfer end and then point the pinion at the transfer so the lower single joint is straight. You carnt do this.

Best to just run two singles.

Do you think the rangie ones will be big/strong enough or should I look at bigger uni's?
