I really hope it's done. I have tomorrow off and hope to get alot of little thing's tied up. It may not have shock's or dig on saturday, and of course will need some tuning still........ so you might have a chance | |

Noticed the Poulson's were slightly toe'd out in the rear. I prefer a little toe-in. So I ground down the knuckle to the edge of the bolt that hold's it to lockout. I then ground down the delrin lockout to bring it closer to were it mount's on the alum. You can see the old side on left compared to new side on right. When you get this done you need to bolt the knuckle to delrin lockout before mounting lockout to axle or you won't be able to get the bolt into the knuckle.

Got some stuff done. SHOCKS: Swung over to my buddy Cody's house and drilled the Edge chassis for shock's. I'll say....thank goodness Cody had a good punch and drill press with all the goodies. You'll definitially want a punch, drillpress, drillpress vise, and clamps to do this. Took it home and tapped it....I think it worked well and gave it a clean look. TRANNY: Got it mounted today along with installing the Holme's Revolver motor. Still gotta get the dig in but i'll jump on that tomorrow when I'm fresh. ELECTRONIC's: I should be starting on those after work tomorrow too. I had to do something fun today on it so I painted up some panel's and threw them on....I'm getting excited.....it's starting to look like a rig. Last edited by H3RESQ; 04-04-2008 at 01:09 AM. |

Awesome work, it's think it cool that you know what you want and are not afraid to do whatever it takes to get it. Mike |
