I used the 95-99 explorer disk brake rear end.Install was relatively cheap and easy.
1)Use the ford u-bolts with the mighty max lower brackets.
2)The mighty max shocks can be re-used.
3)Use the ford brake line and re-flare the mighty max hard line.
4)Clamp the ford paring brake clevis to the mighty ...

Can I ask ya where you picked up Caltracs at? I have some pretty serious wheel hop with the stock springs and an LSD. I hate the thought of something snapping so I tend to let off. If I could actually get on it without the axle tramp / wheelhop, I would be a happy camper :)

I bought them used but ...

No sir.I know where that will get me.The truck started with an 18g.I will prolly do a dual image eprom for 93 octane and call the truck done.

I have a 93 eagle summit van awd.That will prolly start snapping axles soon.I'll post up when the turbo makes it way on there.

I put the stocker in some time ago,sorry.

I did make it to the dyno this weekend.At 10 psi the truck made 140hp and 177tq with 87 octane.It hits full boost at 1800 rpm and needs 30 % throttle to open the waste gate.It costs 9 cents a mile to drive compared to the old setup at 24 cents a mile.Its ...

1)This site is the best so far.
2)I did a supra in tank but the sump is terrible for launching.
3)Yes,wiseco with standard pin location unlike short deck strokers.They call them 4g64 with 4g63 head.I tried stockers but ended up with 13/1 cr.
I would say they last as long as an average dsm.Just keep ...

The only way i can get the tranny to go is nlts via the aem ecu in everyy gear.I use the dis-2 2-step for the launch.
I am using slapper bars on the stock leafs,they work fine for keeping the rear end from rolling and snapping a drive shaft.I may get a 1.6 if i loaded the clutch harder.
I think the ...

That pass was on 26x11.5x16" m/t et streets.
I am at about 8/1 cr.It is a tall deck wide 2.4 with wisecos.
That pass was on 24psi.I would estimate around 400whp.

I am not going to miss this truck.Heavy clutch that is now trashed after 1500 miles,spinning on tthe street until 70mph even on slicks ...

Wow...I wasn't trying to be a dick about it at all. In fact, your truck was part of what got me into wanting to do a might max...You have a great build, and I didn't intend to take away from it.

Not much to it.Pull the hubs out and stick them in a lathe to use dsm sized wheels.If you use ford then there is no maching nessary.










Thats what I was thinking. Reason isn't the 60', but that with 540 horses, there are DSMs going to high 10s weighing more than our trucks. I know traction ...

I do not know how to multi qoute guys,sorry.

The max tranny does not shift very well.I am out of boost for nearly a full second.My 60's are lacking also with averaging at 1.9.
