One of the more obvious appeals to our Spider 9 product line is in the versatility of components. It’s common to find Spider 9 parts on other types of axles, and Spider 9 brakes are likely the most often seen “mix and matched” part. In this article in 4WHEEL & OFF-ROAD, Harry Wagner finds clever ways of reducing weight in his Chevy Tracker (aka Suzuki Sidekick) project with Spider 9 Cross Drilled Rotors & Brake Hats. These cross drilled rotors are no longer on our website now that Ultra4 has moved away from this type of design and more toward our Ultimate & Pro Series Rotors. However, we still offer this cross drilled rotor design so if they are a match for your current project just give us a call. [As of this post, we have a few of these rotors discounted in our Outlet store HERE.]

Dirt Every Day is one of the best shows out there, and THE example of how “internet TV” is kind of a big deal. Fred Williams spends an entire Dirt Every Day episode on the build process of the Ultimate Summer Camp Jeep, this year’s Ultimate Adventure showcase vehicle. From start to finish, from morning to night (or rather morning to early morning), watch the Ultimate Summer Camp Jeep come together in one fun and easy to understand show.

There’s a really nice, behind the scenes, Spider 9 build posted up on the Fourwheeler Network. Complete with one of our favorite writers, Fred Williams, and one of our favorite builders, Sandy Cone, you simply can’t go wrong reading this one. The Spider 9 project featured here was part of the 2015 Ultimate Adventure Summer Camp Jeep, we’ve posted about that build before but this article is a first for the construction of the Spider 9s themselves. Hope you enjoy the read as much as we did.

With that… Ultra4 Nationals in t-minus 4 days and counting.

Simple, effective, in-stock and ready to ship. Head over to our product page for details, http://www.spidertrax.com/Outboard-Seal-312 . Happy Monday!
