Barnes4wd.com has some universal link kits. I used one when I linked the rear of my sami.

Rock4xfab has a good kit to put a sami case behind the track/kick case for a good doubler. This will give you a high range reduction and not have to worry about the axle gears so much.

was trying to get on rock4x web site but cant for some reason. was thinking of a doubler but wasnt sure. tire size not that big a deal i could drop back to 33s . still looking for tires and wheels. the only thing i have for this build is axles an they need r&p and lockers. so im starting from the bottom.

I have heard on some other sites that he is trying to redo his website. There is good information on the "shogun" doubler on Pirate 4x4. The doubler would be really handy, if you can stand the rear driveshaft length.

For the lockers, if you can afford the $$$ for ARB lockers, it would make it great for street and trail use.

Scott, the owner, is in the hospital so things in the shop are a little behind and the website seems to be down. :(

Hopefully he will get better soon and things will be back to normal.

He's back in the hospital? He had a lung colaps and they didn't think he was going to make it, but he pulled through and was released after about a week. Theres a thread on zukikrawlers about him somewhere...

No, I was referring to the original incident. I had not seen an update. I have tried to contact him and have not had any success.

It's good to know he's out of the hospital. Thanks Adam for the update.
