so i decided to swap the axles out to yota axles. I am just putting the rear axle in for now since i dumped 250 into the front axle right before the rear broke. so here is what i have done so far. I bought the rear truss and the upper link bracket. I got them on yesterday and welded it up. had to modify the truss a little since i cut the fill plug out and moved it higher. I dropped the pinion angle down from what i had the dana 35 at. problem I am having now is driveshaft angle sucks coming off the tcase. so i am lowering the suspension down to fix that but i have to watch the clearance on the tires. But its coming together good just small issues. heres some pics of where its at now. have to find shocks that dont bottom out or extend to far. think i will be getting limit straps for it too.

i dropped it about 4 inches to get the driveshaft to not bind up. need to get the tires on rims and get them on so i can see if i need to drop the front down now.

All I have left is to get the shocks and limit straps so I can weld the mounts for them on the axle. Then pull it out and paint it and put the third member in and axle shafts and fill it up and install it back under the tracker. Then get the rims and mount the tires and off I'll go. Hope to be done for the last weekend of this month.
