Moser engineering has completely Fucked me on the axles. First they sent out the wrong lug pattern. So the shop I took the rear end to paid to have them next day air new ones to me. Moser told them it would take 2 days to make new ones. So they should have been here Monday (yesterday). Moser wouldn't give the shop tracking info, so we were expecting them here today at 10am (when the next day usually comes). Well guess what??? Moser took the liberty of decideing not to next day air them, and they won't be here until Thursday now. WTF????? NEVER, and I mean NEVER, do anything with Moser engineering. FUCK those ASSHOLES!!! If anyone knows someone over there I want to talk to them!  Especially Ernie or Kenny

Ive never really had any major probs as far as shipping is concerned with Moser....Last time I sent them axles they did give me 3 different qoutes...then they ended up charging my card almost $100 more than any of the qoutes said. Maybe their hurting for some money....either way it made me lose money on the deal. Bastards. Their axles are badass though...and i'm not sure there's alot more options out there. Sorry to hear about your probs man...can't wait to see more progress.

---------------------------------------------Originally posted by thacru78Were all just trying to learn here...let's not make fun of the uneducated. All i've ever had is bags...were im from...Hydraulics are for lowriders...anything i've ever seen with hydraulics sucks. Has oil everywhere and you can tell it rides like shit just by watching it drive...catches on fire at shows...and never makes it more than a couple of months. Then you see builds like this...and it makes you wanna learn more about them. I'm just trying to learn....---------------------------------------------thats understandable.  people screw up sometimes with buying hydros used? it will always eventually have fluid somewere somehow. i just hate everytime someone gets ready to build something im gonna bag it is automatically the first words out of there mouth.

Mad props to you man for your awesome skills & work...its cool to see so many people asking questions about hydraulics/juice. Ive had juice on 2 of my mini-trucks & im really thinking about going with juice again on my Toyota cause if its done right then the ride is great & its very dependable.

Strange or Currie are 2 other companies that can do custom axles. I have never dealt with them, but I bet they aren't as bad as Moser. I got a little done today, but nothing interesting enough to take pics of. I cut the sway bar mount off of the lower a-arms. It gave me an extra 1" of lift. I also built and welded in a gusset for the rear body mount. It was pretty small after I cut the frame off back there, so I figured I would tie it into the new frame rails. The only good news out fo the axle issue is for Derek. I will be able to start mounting his pumps and batteries tomorrow while still waiting for the axle. I will post pics of that in a new thread.

Got some stuff done. Took the tranny crossmember out. Painted the crossmember and frame under the cab. Secured the brake line, gas lines, and wires. Put the tranny crossmember back up in place. Then laid the truck out to see where I was. I actually do need to notch the rear pivot for the lower a-arm. I need about another inch to go up. But the good news is the bridge is the right size. I need to trim the wheel wells up another inch in the rear and then I will be able to stick the wheel in there, but my air saw broke.
