Time for a facelift!!

[lbyota85]

just out out of curiousity what kind of wear and tear you have on your tractor joints,did you get them at tractor supply or agri supply

I have had track bars for over a year and they are just starting to get lose, but not near wore out. I got mine at tractor supply, 20$ for a top link.

You planning on running a 2 piece front shaft? Also, looks like you could lower your box a few inches.
Looks Good

It will be a one piece like Warrior said same f/r so I'll only have to carry one spare. What is this "box" you speak of?

 

[lbyota85]

Got a little more done tonight... Got the rear hoisted into place.

Cut out the pattern for the piece between it.

 

[lbyota85]

Got the rear frame on and started the links...
Pattern done...

Lookin good landon!
Are you sure your gusseting/ super reinforcement will hold up? You might wanna get with our club engineer when he's up to it, i'm sure he can find a flaw in your design

(that smiley kinda looks like buck with one of his cigars)
