Go Slow YJ build
 

I finally had a chance to get this build started thanks to a sweet deal with one of the vendors of the site. It has been in my plans for a while but it always found itself bumped by another project. The plan is to make a Class 2 comp rig (the "Silver Bullet Taco" now sits on 2.2's") that resembles this sweet rig:

I hope I'm not doing anything wrong by using this rig for inspiration.:roll:

I was thinking the same thing! I already inquire about them but no word yet. Those are a must for this build!

nice can't wait to see what you guys come up with. good luck on your next build hugo. when do you thing the tires will come out you think

I am not sure Nick but I have been following the thread and they are done with the forst batch already. They should be out in the next 2 weeks I think.

when you get this one done, whats this make like 20 rc's you have now that you will be working on:lmao:.

Uhhhhh, bout 4 on the works and 2 finished! lol:flipoff: Got to stay sane somehow!

That sounds about right.;-)

Time to start working on this bad boy! Got a little some thing special going on for tube work. When Hugo and I started the planning stage of this build, it was decided it had to be lite weight. So since I don't like using brake like for my builds, I went with something that was both strong and lite weight. So naturally it had to be 3/16" Chromoly tube. Stay tuned! More to come!"thumbsup"

This looks very intriguing.

I've kept up with the GO FAST YJ build on Pirate since it started...this is gonna be good!

Sweet, now we just need those Pitbull tires.

Yep! I have some on back order at Horizon, since they will be distributing them, I figured why not.

Man, not much left of that $45 body....huh!:mrgreen: Still need to trim up to the bottom of the doors and add a little on the grill by the headlights.

Awesome rig for sure! I cant wait to see how it turns out and Lets see this tubing! Whare did you get it? I have been looking for some for a while, but cant seem to find any??was it expensive?

I know but it will look better like this anyways!"thumbsup"

I'll have to get a pic of it tomorrow. I found it on the bay and yes compared to the solid rod I use, it is very expensive. But using it was the only way to have the integrity of the solid rod and have it lite weight like brake line.

:mrgreen::mrgreen: It sure will!

SUBSCRIBED! I'm a newb and an office paper-pusher...this is gonna be good!!

I love the scale stuff. Look forward to seeing how this turns out...
