| Re: A.j. Kustoms "lil' yj brute" Well it's been over a year since I started this build, life has just been in the way the last 8 months or so. Since the "LIL' YJ" has gone to a new home and SWSC is only a couple months out I figured it's time to blow the inch of dust off this little guy and get him done. I took a little time at the shop yesterday morning and got started on the front shock mounts.   I finished bending them up last night.   Last edited by AJ.; 02-17-2014 at 07:36 AM. |

| Re: A.j. Kustoms "lil' yj brute"
I was wondering if you were going to mount the upper end of the shock like that - Me likey even more.... Where did you get the steel Nuts on your sliders? |

| Re: A.j. Kustoms "lil' yj brute" Well yet another year has past and this poor thing is still stuck on the bench, just not much time for building the past couple years. A few weeks back I decided that I was going to try to FINALLY get this little guy done hopefully for RMSN. When I first started this build I always felt that it should be on Leafs, but I hadn't ever messed with a Leafed rig and didn't want to break out of my comfort zone. After staring at the chassis for about an hour one evening I decided to set it aside and ordered a TF2 Kit. A few days later the TF2 Kit arrived at the shop, before I had a chance to open it up 1BadJeepBruiser offered up his "Mini Me" Bruiser/TF2 which I felt was a much better platform for this build and gave me a huge jump start on set up. So here it is!  |
