In this video we take out the Heim joints and install the Barnes4wd Enduro joints in our three link suspension. This gives a much better ride for what I am doing with the S10 and still gives the flex in the joints I need.
I am also installing a new hydro assist ram from West Texas Offroad, the redneck ram. We also fab up bracket mounts, fix a trac bar and use the laser to set up the front and rear axles inside the frame making sure they are square so the truck tracks straight down the road.

Everything I read stated the saginaw boxes have a pressure relief, so when the box reaches its "stop", it stops sending pressure to the ram also. I tried not to chance it and set my steering stops to the box then set my ram to end at the stops so all 3 stop at once in theory haha. Who really knows but it works

Interesting.. I will have to do more research. Makes sense. But I don’t want to risk it.

s10 bulds are awsome. the s10 didnt get any fame out of the gate because of crap front suspension and that 2.8 motor. even though well at least in my opinion the square body s10 has always been the best looking truck body

@MacsSpecialitiesMotorsports 10 ай бұрын

Good info! Awesome to hear about the Enduro joints! How are you liking the s10 so far? Do you miss the TJ yet?

@MuddyBeards4X4 10 ай бұрын

Thanks, I don’t really miss the Tj that much… this will do everything the Tj would do, just have to worry about body damage. Obviously some trails the jeep is better because of size and I didn’t care if I smashed it up on a tree or rock, lol. But overall the s10 is better.

@@MuddyBeards4X4 I figured you were going to say something like that. I believe the s10 will only get better for you as well as you dial it in.

Very helpful video. I've been thinking about making the swap from heims back to enduro joints. Need to replace ring and pinion first.

@TheChicagOP 11 ай бұрын

Technically a bolt being slightly too small for a hole shouldn't matter in a shear joint because what's holding things together is the friction created between surfaces from torquing the bolt. But I prob would've done the same anyways haha

Add the weld repair washers whilst your fitting the track bar… 👍

When I build my long arm Jeep suspension I did nearly all heims. I need to go back and change it all out to enduro joints as well. The heims are barely over a year old and they make a lot of noise. They are ruff stuff heims.

@MuddyBeards4X4 11 ай бұрын

Yea, they work great but if you don’t want the noise you have to clean and lube them almost every trip.

@TheChicagOP 11 ай бұрын

I've used the same fk heims on my truck for 3 years now and they're silent

@JW-cn6op 11 ай бұрын

Can you just put weld washers on the track bar bracket to fix the slightly oversized hole? On my trucks 5- 6deg if caster has worked good for driving straight and no funny tire wear, the 7-8 you are running seems a bit much.

@MuddyBeards4X4 11 ай бұрын

Yup, weld washer is how I am going to fix it. I will be setting it at 6deg and tightening the gear box that has a dead spot and then going from there.

@MuddyBeards4X4 11 ай бұрын

Haha, these heims are like 6yrs old and came off a rock crawler. They had a rough life. Barnes4wd doesn’t make a flex joint that small otherwise I would use one.
