Max II Project

[Toys4Me]

Came with NOS uncut top. Original frame was junk. Came with newer good frame. Reinforced the bearing mounting areas. Using Argo HD bearings with custom 3" UHMW bearing extensions/synthetic bearings. Made chain adjusters. New solid axles and sprockets. Split the shifter. Picking up 670 predator this weekend. Adding mild cam, heavier valve springs, custom exhaust in stock location, and intake. LED headlights and taillights.

Still have original 3 bolt axle if someone can use them along with 3 to 5 converters.

Looking for stock roll bar to make roll bar fab a little easier. Plan is to put it to the test at Busco.

Basically all mechanical parts are new.

What are those spacers made of?? man those are big!!!

[Toys4Me]

UHMW 5" diameter 3" thick.

You felt no need for inner bearings while it's apart?

Oh wait, did I see HD bearings inside and outside of extensions?

[Toys4Me]

I was going to put inside bearings but I cant find any that fit the inner rails. What fits? I'd love inside bearings.

Only HD bearings on the outside. The UHMW is milled 30 thousands over so its a tight and acting like a synthetic bearing.

[ARGOJIM]

You could bolt 2 bolt flanges on one rail and then you would need to weld 2 straps each to hold the other rail set. I think g has some pictures of his.

I thought about doing that. I actually have the bearing. I'd love to see pics.

[ARGOJIM]

Looking good Mike!

Heres how I ended up doing the inner bearings. I meachined the square tubing to fit the channel tight, then spot welded it from the back side.

[ARGOJIM]

Works for me, maybe literally.

[Toys4Me]

I used the bushing rod for lining everything up.

[Toys4Me]
