hp44/9in with 39s?

[WeRideNTruX]

They're seriously that low? Nice. I'm a moron when it comes to Nissan.

if you find the right axle yeah 4.3 is pretty common with 4cylinders

just outta of curiosity lets say i got a 44/9 combo and kept breakin the 44 and decided to upgrade to a d60 front is there anyway to convert a 9in to 8 lug of a d60 to 5 lug?

There is a way to do that with aftermarket shafts but its worth it to throw a 14 bolt or 70 in when you do a 60.

 

[WeRideNTruX]

i thought there would be but id still want to keep it fairly small and light and 14 bolts are huge

if weight is a concern on a 14 then do a disc swap. thats almost 100lbs weight savings there dependig on which one you go with. Also you can shave the heck out of a 14bolt and net some decent ground clearence. If im not mistaken kirby shaved enough out of his that he had to grind down the ring gear. Lb for lb the 14 bolt is a beast. Its so strong that a detroit even goes in the factory carrier. IMO building a 60 rear is pissing in the wind considering how strong a 70 and 14 are from the get go. And a 14 is CHEAP ive seen them go for 75 bucks.

another option is a 35 or 40 spline 9''. I got a buddy that runs the 40 spline 9' with a 60 front with 5 lug conversion and 38s and it does well. He is pretty rough on it:

You have already crossed out of small and light when you put a d60 in the front.

true but i really wouldnt wanna run tons for just 37s if it were 39s or 40s id be ok with tons but not for 37s

been said already but i just read this thread....and with personal experience, no. 35" with a hp44/9" and i've busted several front stock shafts and a rear shaft. good axle combo for 35" with chromos in front but not 39". RCV's in the front and 35 spline the rear and run 37" but if you have a half decent motor and a right foot it will not do 39 with stock parts.

 

[WeRideNTruX]

^ thats kinda what ive gathered. so i guess ill ride 37s and as stuff breaks ill upgrade it.

 

[WeRideNTruX]

holy crap just looked up RCV's stuff and thats alotta cash money! like $1300 :eeek:! for the weight of a hp44 over a D60 i might could be convinced to get em but that will be a ways away.

That is cheap considering it is the last set you will buy. Lifetime warranty.
