Tuf-4x4

I am looking to convert my 4x2 to a 4x4 but using Rockwell axles insted. Do you all know of a place in San Antonio, Houston, or Dallas Texas that would make this conversion? I know it is going to be pricey but the truck is already paid for and I do not want to trade it in. I have seen a truck on Diesel Power mag with the setup I am looking for. This is the only truck that I have that dosen't have 4x4. My 07 Mega and jeep are 4x4 and since I am not using my 4x2 for work any more I would like to make it my toy with a huge lift and wheels and tires.

might call B&C Offroad here in houston......they have put together some awsome trucks

do you realize how much Rockwell's go for? If it were me, (and its not) I would stick with the Dana family. They can be built almost as strong as the Rockwell's, are completely rebuildable, and have a huge aftermarket support. How about a Dana 60 up front and a 70 or 80 out back?

How about finding some portal axles from a heavier duty Unimog like a U1100 or a 416, that would be killer, give some unparalleled ground clearance. The 404 axles might be too light for a Cummins diesel.

you can get Rock's for $1500 each that already have the brake conversion. I will try and find the company that has them and get you the info.

DO IT! take TONS OF PICS!

Money is not an issue here so rockwells is what I am going to go with. How can I get a hold of B&C in Houston?

With my experience with rockwells USA6X6 is by far the best place for anything rockwell....they can tell you everything you need to know for a rockwell conversion

rockwells are sweet and if you do this conversion please use 2 front ends and have 4 wheel stear

Tuf-4x4

I have seen USA6x6 work. I am going to give them a call first thing Monday. I'll ask them about the 4 wheel stearing.

and since you are making a toy a custom lift and 54" boggers or the 53 millitarys would be cool and if you need any more ideas i am really good at spending other peoples money

Tuf-4x4

Hey bud bring on your ideas. I was already thinking of purchasing some 20in Poison Spiders beedlock wheels and some millitarys 53in tires. I am not sure how much of a lift I would have to go with inorder to get this bad boys on?

If moneys truly no object then you should Bob tha bed, skylight tha roof, and an exhaust "hot plate" for cookin shicken sounds like a money well spent.

ok so this is what is came up with in about 2min in paint

tristan21

It needs the front axle further forward, wheel wells cut out and a dually bed and I think you got it.
