pulley for rear winch - air shocks

[UZJ40]

going to run my cable down to the diff and back up. have seen some of the buggys do this, what pulleys do you use?

any pictures?

the best setup i've seen is on Boof's 40 series buggy, it uses an commodore idler pulley (steel one) with a custom bracket.

i started off with a 25mm od stainless pulley from a boat shop, but the swivel on the bracket broke so using the same pulley wheel i just fab'd up a little bracket and it's been like that since.

I have since ditched my 6mm steel cable (broke a couple of times from the shock of the buggys suspension unloading when going fast over bumps) for superstatic climbing rope (9mm) i used it like that in the last comp and the rope didn't break, i think some others are using dynamica winch rope too.

A little bit of stretch helps.

Pardon my ignorance, What's the purpose of running it down to the diff?

U winch the supension down to stop it unloading and sending u ass over tit, or u can use it to limit the movement of one axle which will force the movement of the other.
