2 wheel kit in OEM skid

[mushkin]

Is there anyone who runs a 2 wheel kit in the oem skid?
If so, is it a modified oem axle or a complete kit?
Which size are the wheels?

Is it even possible to run 8" wheels in OEM skid?


Regards

I run one on mine using stock wheels. The axle I bought from Absolute Speed and Performance in Edmonton, Alberta. Around $100 for the axle. If you want to go to larger wheels you'll need an offset axle

1/2 hour on a lathe all stock parts no problem .

Some guys run 8 inch wheels makes it more like a straight rail with no tip up.

Just remember if you run the stock skid the bigger wheels will rub hard inside the tunnel.

what's the advantage of a 2-wheel setup?

I found it made the skid fell a bit shorter. Other than that not much.

Less drag less weight and the best it carves easier.

You can also run 3 wheels inside the rails looks like a 2 wheel kit but has the

3rd wheel if you blow one out you can still run it home on 2 .

That is what I recoment for guys doing long distance stuff.
