Nice find Thank god for another super, I was starting to think I was going to have to break down and get a 2.2... If I can help in anyway, let me know. I'd say first and foremost, get yourself the integy aluminum axle tubes (you saw how easy it is to break one when traction is high), a full ball bearing kit, adjustable motor mounts and the long 8 or 9 tooth pinions. The outters can wait, just shave off the steering limiting pins and run it for awhile. Personally, I've never seen an stock plastic outter fail. Not saying they don't, but after 20 years of beating clods, I've never seen one go down. That, and I've only seen a slight/moderate difference between stock steering radius and the full on cvd w/ aluminum outters. I've got all sorts of parts and pieces laying around, and some new ones in the works...(I know Monte, I'll get to it! ;) ) Weather is supposed to be favorable this weekend, and I'm jonesin' to run the Burb at the SC location...bring it out and we'll have a go. Otherwise, you could head up this way. Monte, Red, and I will show you how our big rocks can flex out a super and swallow it whole. Monte's rig running topless:  2.2 rigs also invited  |

I well see if I can get some time to work on it this week. We went out yesterday for a shot while, forgot my camera. It needs a little TLC. I would love to come up and play on some bigger rocks. Now that the snow is gone the SC location really dosen't seem like much of a challenge for a super. Thanks for the invite and the help! Chad |
