I got some sweet seats from TAB FAB:




These new seats weigh only 12g each as compared to the stock seats at 55g each. And these look WAY cooler!

Thanks Bill.

I'm trying some new driveshafts on this rig:

(the top, not the bottom )

Maxx male glued into a female. The male has an oversized aluminum sleeve glued inside.

Thanks! I think if I got a bigger motor on this truck, it would just fall apart immediately after plugging it in....

A while back, I broke the front anti-sway bar so I ordered up some piano wire as a replacement. Then I broke another stock front bumper. I decided to get a bumper that will last....unfortunately, it meant getting rid of the front sway bar. So I swapped it into the back:


Some 1" spacers from the hardware store and we are back in business!

What front bumper are you using? If custom, get them to add the sway bar mounts.

Yeah, it's custom. I asked about the sway bar mounts, but it wont work out too well with the high clearance bumper.

That bumper looks like it may give a better approach angle being that it appears higher than the stocker.

Yeah, the bumper sits a bit higher than I'd like (higher than the hood), but the approach angle is definitely better. I'll check that out when I get home this evening...
