[Black Bear]

what's the angle of your links? and alos what are the lengths

Uppers are about 51 deg and are 32.25" long
Lowers are about 43 deg and are 42.75" long

But my math could be way off.. I have not done trigonometry in a long time.

 

[UNBREAKABLE]

Is this thing done yet?

 

[BRUISER]

Is this thing done yet?

Don't we wish..

The gist: John bought a house and is now broke (just kidding)
we moved out of our shop so spae to work has been very little.
I got married and took a honeymoon
and my grand father died (Just got back from memorial today)
but now that things are settling down maybe we can get back to work

more updates to follow soon we promise

Between buying a new house, moving, work, and family there really has not been time for the yota. Some work has been done not much though. I plan on having the fuel cell, and rear winch mounted this week.

John I think you might have to cut a little on the rear

 

[Black Bear]

Im going to have to trim the flare, but im going to wait till the front is cut up.

 

[BRUISER]

Front is out

 

[etjeep]

I can't believe I slept through this entire thread. Sh@t like that happens when you work out of town for over a year. I like your truck....you guys are studs!

 

[BRUISER]

well we got bored waiting for correct spindles so we decided to start on tailgate.

 

[Black Bear]

Rear driveshaft is almost done, and there is some progress on the front axle.

 

[tsmall07]
