Hey hows it going I haven't been around for a wile but I have a 4door sidekick and I have managed to ware out the bearing races in the front spindles
along with broken idler arm and needing a new caliper on one side.

So I've been thinking about doing a straight axle to solve all my problems with a three link. Just wondering if any of you guys have and suggestions on a good axle to use. I have a dana 44 out of an early bronco but the problem is the diff is on the wrong side

thanks

Would this be for a 2dr or 4dr?

I'd check out 4x4pirate under Suzuki. There is a thread there about a SAS on a Trackick and some pics of one or 2. Toyota axles seem to be the choice, however, there is one with Scout axles.

Why not Jeep narrow axles, D30 front, AMC20 or D44 rear?  (And don't rip on using the Jeep axles as it may work, probably plentiful in the yards, and parts are readily available.)

Ya the guy with the scout axels on his Kick is from Vancouver.

Heres a few pics.





It's a sweet set up, but it cost him around $7500 Canadian.

hey, what is the address to that website on the sraight axle trackicks "4x4pirate" just curious. does any body have some new info on the calmini kit??  im saving up but im tempted to spend the moola on other things i hope they release it soon.  later  shane

The last i heard the kit wasn't ever going to produced or at least for a while.  but what about the RRO 6 in kit.  lata stu

The RRO 6" has been coming for ever, I would expect to see something from Calmini before you see this kit.

WHEN I TALKED TO RRO  THEY SAID THEY HAD NO IDEA WHEN IT WOULD BE AVAILABLE.,...BUT WANTED IT TO BE CORRECT AND KICK A$$ WHEN DONE  :-/   CALMINI ALSO STATED NO TRUE IDEA ON A RELEASE DATE ...SO IT WAS TIME FOR THE 6" COMBO FOR ME  

man, i almost wish they would have not released that little intro to the solid axle kit though...now i have my heart set on it and i dont want to spend the money on the 3" kit if im going to get the solid axle kit! :-/

I'm looking for projects, send me the
$$ and the kick I'll convert it for you

I thought you were working on a complete turbo package for the 8-valve engines?

Nobody wants a turbo I guess, I didn't get any replys  

I was thinking about it but I'd have just done it myself, but after looking into the GM 60 degree V6 that just seems like a better choice to me overall.  If I can't get around emissions though I'll probably have to stick with a turbo.  Pretty sad but you can get past the emissionazi's just fine with an add on turbo, but those extra 2 cylinders might be a deal breaker.

I think it's more like build it and they'll come. People need to see a finished kit that they can call up and say, "Hey I need turbo kit #34501" Then, you say, "Alright that'll ship in 3 days and will be $1495.00... Will that be on you Visa or Mastercard?"

HTH, Eric

wow thats a pretty swet tracker
