Not quite. I tried the universal cable from summit and was able to install it roughly. But I suspect the "throw" of the parking brake on the sterling is longer than the throw of the stock axle. All hooked up, the throw of the handle doesn't seem to pull the cable enough to set the brake.
I...
Fox p/n 883-26-074. Rear Shocks.
Retail price is $1450. Asking $1000 obo.
Shocks are basically brand new and near perfect condition. Only on my truck for ~200 miles, purchased 3 months ago. Found out I could run the 4-6" lift version, so these were pulled off. These were on my gladiator that has...
Oh yeah. They've been in for ~5 months. Still finishing up some loose ends and making tweaks, but so far they have been rock solid.
Still need to finish:
hydro assist
Locker wiring
Parking brake
Hydro bump pressure and position tweaks
Adjust the position of the front frame side track bar mount...
Very interesting. Would you be able to share more details and pictures of the canopy? When I move from my 1 ton axle swap to outfitting the bed, I belive this is what I want to go for. Enclosed, lockable, strong, mounted rtt level with roof line for low CG and able to drive under lower clearance...
I'm glad to hear you are happy with it. I'm looking forward to mine.
It isn't really important offroad for 99% of people other than very picky rock crawlers. It theoretically matters on road only during tight turns with enough velocity to cause a loss of stable turning. It is about making sure...
No problem, thanks for the reply. Just ordered all of my internals with the 4th of July sales. Ford rear locker, front eaton locker, nitro 5.38 gears and install kits, beadlocks and 40" nittos, etc.
I'll stick with the crossover kit for now. I can always get new knuckles with stock ackerman...
How has the artec crossover steering worked for you? Any issues daily driving it?
I have the same kit, still boxed up, and am still learning about ackerman angle and such. It looks like the crossove bracketry is closer to neutral ackerman, whereas buying artec's aluminum kit with the high...
What filler material and weld process did you use for the tubes and truss to the center casting, and also for the high steer brackets to the knuckles?
And what wheels? They look like they could use a little more backspacing to reduce scrub radius.
Thanks for the response. I just sent in another email, and hopefully will get a working replacement.
It just isn't right. I think the leds are a little too bright already, adjusted all the way down. That's a little bothersome. The LEDs sticking and forcing me to continually tap the brakes...
Can you still confirm that you no longer have any stuck LEDs? I have my original spectrum built in 7/20, and it's warranty replacement built in 4/21, and they both still have the stuck LED issue. In the latest email, Curt told me it is "normal" and apologized to me.
I would like to tell this...
