Finally scoured the interwebs long enough and came across a deal I couldn’t pass up.
Embarking on the long and arduous project of building some junk yard axles for the JK.
Its time for some wontons.
Picked up a set of axles from an 08 F-350 that, were complete and, in fairly decent shape...
Rad. When the time comes I’ll reach out. Once I get these big ads axles shaved down and brackets mocked up I’ll be ready to order wheels and tires so I can start checking for clearances etc. much appreciated sir.
Hey all. For those familiar with the KMC line, does anyone know if they do custom bolt patterns? Specifically wanting their grenade beadlock in an 8x170 (ford SD Bolt pattern). I know they offer the machete in that pattern standard and if I have to go that route then so be it.

Last motorcycle trip to Baja someone in our group packed a STARLINK system in his panniers. I was super impressed with how well it worked. I’ve thought about adding it to my Motorcycle travel setup when I take my long treks out in the sticks.
Rest assured that it’s not much of a gamble. It’s not cheap but it’s money well spent. Been running their gear for a long time and on the rare occasions I have an issue, they’re quick to fix it and make it right. I’m still running a couple from their first launch when the company started. Solid...

I say do it. You’ll still have a kick ass time and you’ll meet...
You’re likely gonna have a rough time clearing the calipers with a 15” wheel. I’d verify one fits before you go down the rabbit hole much further. I don’t think you’re gonna find anyone here running a setup like that.
I’m in the process of doing this for the 3rd time, now on my own JK. Artec has the best swap kits on the market IMO especially for the JT. Depending on what axles you’re looking at for the rear, some present different issues than others. The front is gonna be almost the same as the JK with a few...
