Updates... -Got more goodies in the mail...MIP D-Shafts and Proline Shocks. -Got some 3/8" Delrin material for the skid plate (Tap Plastics in Lynnwood, Wa) -Got the frame bent up, now to cut it up tomorrow. I just use a plumbing torch to heat and and bend the tube. After I bend it I hammer out the blow outs on the side. Also, after I cut it in half, I will use a vise grip to tweak the in side bent level. Here is the link to the setup I use. http://www.bernzomatic.com/products/...odid=TS4000ZKC Here is a 8mm socket driver I got for the Super 300 nut, the VP hubs are super tight.
