I agree, some people pay good money for those bullet hole stickers... you got em bigger and for free! :banana:

 

Funny you should bring this up, I don't understand the reason people put those sticker on there vehicles? To me its dumb, Does it make you tuff and ghetto or what? Just like all the prisom tape, WHY!!?? :-\

 

Lol

The axles on this are fullsize, but cheap

And some Jeeps. I don't know about track width, but I'm sure they could work

Can't remember if this generation of Trooper has a solid front axle or not, but here's a possibility

I do believe the '90 Troopers still had a full axle (Not independent) I know I've seen Troopers up till '93 that still used the full axle.

 

Also, whats the diffrence between a front or rear solid axle? Besides the pumkin being at an off set on some. So why couldn't you use a rear axle in front, and just modify the housing for whats needed?

 

Just my thoughts

the front needs the ability to turn :)

 

the toyota 3rd members are interchangeable front to rear....

how's the diff clearance with the gas tank? be sure to put some bump stops in :)

 

it clears even with the 31s stuffed all the way up, not much room for upper arms ., just might get some work done on it today , trying to decide if to stick with the subaru front end or solid axle it, leaning towards the suby stuff as I already have it and like the lite nimbleness , I guess if in the futre I wanted a solid axle up front I could always change it out , and i already have a nissan 720 t-case , its raining today good day to be in the shop

OMG duh! Geez, strike that I said that. well I've had a feaver and a head cold for the last few days (Not in my right mind)

 

Scott, I would just stick with the subie diff and see how you like it (You can always change it out at latter date)
