Default ARSone24's Yeti

Well I figure my Yeti is descent enough to post now. It has most of the standard mods. Hopefully by the end of the year ill have the HH540xl with an MMP Im just waiting for a xmas sale or something.

The front end consists of RPM arms cheap Ebay aluminum castor blocks and shock tower with GPM tie rods. I just installed a full Blue monkey cvd MIP setup which required shaving of the RPM arms. Still thinking about which way I want to go to mount the shocks. The rear consists of MIP rear shaft. SSD rear axle and lower arms. Vanquish upper trailing arms and the SSD 2spd. Probably leaving some stuff out. On to the pics! The last pic is the current state with all the panels.

Nice Yeti, looks to be a pretty much bullet proof drive train. Should handle the puller pro xl no problem.

Yes. If your wondering, there's a lot of grinding of the rpm arms and you have to mount the shock in front of the arms.

Thanks for your pics! I am still building!:-) how is the performance from your shock after mount in front of the arms? Same good like before? You have stock springs? What kind of oil are you using?
Thanks mike

So I've decided to bite the bullet and this came in. I can't wait to see how it performs.

The side panels are carter fab, the roof and hood are from AMF racing bought on EBay and the rack is a gear head from RPP. Also got the new electronics installed!! Still haven't driven yet, family duties come first.

good so far can't complain. Very solid feel and the plastic rod ends are firm.
