[86 slo-vo]

and my OBA tank...just have to do a little work on it lol

got the start of my radius arm mount...its a raised trans crossmember for a bagged truck...looks like its going to work perfect

let us know if that crossmember works out, they are made for a 2wd and I don't think that they will clear the driveshaft. I see those on sale all the time for cheap too, it seems like a decent cheap way to get better clearance.

if it doesn't it wont be hard to fix, its been laying around in the garage for years...my brother bought it for his bagged 98 ranger and discoverd it was 93-97 and just never sent it back...we will see what happens

 

[86 slo-vo]

did a little playing down on the river before the sun went down...

andddddd...i think its time for some suspension that can flex lol...gotta love a welded rear though

and found a ditch to play in

stock sucks
