Oh man, total hotness right there!

Aha! So you're the one that put the gen 1 diff in the pede tranny! I'll be getting some new cross drilled outdrives this afternoon. I can't keep the stupid setscrews tight on the current ones.

I dont remember where the trans came from to be honest with you... I think it may have come out of an older pede. I have a few old trans and I never have a problem as long as I use metal yokes. With the plastic ones, once they get some torque on them, they will pop right off.

Yeah, I remember that from my OG stampede. The only problem I have with the metal yokes is the price. Oh well, I'm borrowing the yokes from my brother's rig, so I'll have to buy new ones anyway. Plus, I'd be spending the same money on a diff with cross-drilled output shafts.

I feel your paint, I hate dropping 20 bones on those stupid little things

BUT they are a must... Im wierd like that, I have no problem spending big $$$ on other stuff but certain stupid things make me cringe, those being one of them. One other thing I am to cheap to do is buy real tlt wheel wideners...my 7$ a set king black foot half shafts will work just fine thank you!

Yup thats the idea behind it

I actually got that idea from Brandon (Nluvwith...)

camel_rc · 09-02-2006, 11:06 PM

Added a nice scale touch...head lights, rock lights, and tail lights!

The tail lights and rock lights are on a different circuit and battery from the head lights, which also run on a seperate battery from the car itself.

The wiring nightmare:

The three switches:

Headlights:

Hindshot:

Frontshot:

Now I'll have two rigs for night crawling:
