Nowwwwww I get it!

When you can only see sky thru the windshield, it means you're climbing a pretty good hill.....when you can see the ground ahead of you thru the windshield, you made it to the top....

When you're stupied like me.....it's better to stay on the pavement!

Hey CheapThrill, what did you have to do with the body mounts for this?

 

[CheapThrillB2]

Reposition the front brackets and made new brackets for the 4 rear mounts off the frame.

Ever think about moving the rear axle back farther and go with coils? The front is perfect but you got alot of overhang in the back. Lookin bad ass tho. I liked the video!

Who knows, I will probably keep it for another 6-12 months then I might build a full buggy...







Rocks/Valleys today....


Destructive day...

I ate 2 D60 stubs/lockouts, one tie rod, and one shock (stuff I know of). Broke a tie rod on winch hill, fixed it on winch hill then 3 minutes later blew the RF stub/lockout. Then wheeled 3 wheel for a while. Tried the "new" trail and grenaded the other stub and lockout. My winch got a hell of a work out today. Not sure when the shock got bent though?

 

[Boggin]

nice carnage lol. whats the wheelbase on her now? you plan on leaving it that way?

 

[CheapThrillB2]

118-119"

yeah its staying where it is on wheel base.

1 RF Stub/Lockout-ate the bearing and seal in the spindle and marred up the spindle where the stub fits through it. The end of the spindle in the threaded area is untouched (nuts spun off with no issue). Damage to the spindle is marginal, I think I can clean it up and a new bearing with press back into it and seal up decent. The inner shaft has the ever so smallest twist in the splines, almost can't even see it.

1 LF Stub/Lockout-ate the bearing and seal in the spindle and marred up the spindle where the stub fits through it. The end of the spindle in the threaded area is untouched (nuts spun off with no issue). Damage to the spindle is marginal, I think I can clean it up and a new bearing with press back into it and seal up decent.

1 Chevy Tie rod #2026R (if I recall correctly).

1 Skyjacker shock

The lock right looks good, no damage to the teeth or the pins. This trip makes for 3 (total overall) shattered D60 Stubs on this lock right and have yet to damage it .
