I am thinking it's gotta be a regional item but you would think screens are the same in the nw as in the south right? Last edited by username; 03-24-2009 at 08:51 AM. | |

Well, this thread inspired me since I was wanting to build a comp rig but cash has been a problem lately... Got the 1 1/2" Base (that's whats on the sticker) as well as this # 3167715000 (Might be the SKU#?). I had to do some things differently as the only axels I have are on my scaler... which I shaved the 3 Link mounts off the housing and made a 4 link bar. It's cobbled together at the moment (local comp this weekend), but I plan to re-design and machine new axel truss plates that will clock both the front and rear diffs. Well, here are my pics - with the body on - Doc Thunder - Thanks for the inspiration!!! Pat |

My next project is either making a drive shaft DIG or selling one of my on-road 4WD cars to fund a R2Dii. Quote:
