You are entitled to your opinion.

yes But I have the skills to do this to my CJ6

They are not envious of your off road ability just your number of Big Boy Toy Cool Points. (BBTCP for short) I am sure your CJ can set in the parking lot and be clean and sparkle just as well as any Wrangler.

you know, I can get to a show in my CJ6 on 31s, park nect to a extremely tricked out Wrangler and get 3 times the attention he does. Makes those guys so envious they turn green as my little CJ is more of a crowd gatherer than their Money pit chromed beast. Why? CJs are just so much cooler, but then they also will not do what he can.

Once or maybe twice a year with the full moon, just so I remember what color it is. You will be glad to know I no longer make a sacrifice, The neighbors kept asking if I had seen their cat and I was having a hard time keeping a straight face.

get a good set of springs, a setof beefy axles, 35s and a v8, tune the lift so the huge wide tirs do not rub the frame and put the pedal to the metal mud bogging it and have a blast, Leaf springs work great in the Mud

I've got a 350 and GM Turbo 400 . It's not really mud bogging. There is sections of mud, but its more of a obstacle. Here are a couple of videos of what the trails look like. The yellow TJ was my old jeep.

Nothing there a Dana 30 /Dana 44 combo on 33s with detroits could not walk over with ease. If you want to get e 35s get d44s both end, either way go 4.56 or deeper with a 4to1 tcase and just learn the skinny pedal is not your friend.

I'd really like to go with 37s. The videos only show a trail or two. There is a lot more. Any recommendations on a 4-1 Transfer Case that will work with the GM Turbo 400 . I was going to put a new chain in the quadra trac, but will just replace the transfer casce with another this weekend.

 

[sbrodacz]

I am leaning towards a Dana 300 ? They seem to be fairly cheap.

 

[Old Dog]

right now your problem is the rear is offset to match the QT. t/c.
When you upgrade to a stronger (centered) rear, a Dana 300 (would need a 4:1` kit) or a atlas would both be good.

So I cannot swap to a Dana 300 without swapping the rear axle?

I'm doing a custom link & coil set up on the front of my CJ7 . Nothing too fancy, something similar to ford style radias arms, but I'm keeping the leafs (spring over) in the back. It will work, done it before.....but when asked why, I just say "because I can".

Good to know.

 

[Old Dog]

I hate to be the one to say it, but for off road the quadra-trac is the worse cj there is. If I were you I would sell it and buy a different one as a base.

 

[sbrodacz]

Sell what the quadra trac? I am planning to, that is why I am asking about the Dana 300 . I just do not want to have to swap out the rear axle at the same time just to make the Dana 300 or any other Transfer Case .

SB, Gather parts first, get those Waggy 44s you were talking about and look for a NP OR 241 from a Rubi, and get an adapter,
the QuadraTrac is a bad unit to push hard, not going take it. It was a revolutionary design and worth it's place in history for it's evolutionary factor, but is not a unit to wheel hard, it's best place is on icy roads going to a ski slope.
Get the axles built, get the adapter to convert the GM Turbo 400 to the tcase, save up money for new drive shafts and do the swap. I guarentee you will have a Jeep to be proud of that will handle 35s or 37s.
Planning a entire project and gathering info, parts and money is the key, remember the tortoise and the hare? well in 4x4 projects the hare spends twice the money as he does everything twice, and the tortoise gets there first anyway.

 

[sbrodacz]

I've got $3-4000 to spend right now. Is the Rubi a NP241 or are you referring to two different cases. From the research I've done so far the NP205 is a good Transfer Case , but does not allow for lower gearing.

The Rubicon's Transfer Case is NVG241OR?
