"So I take it out on the inaugural run, hoping to find the things that need to be tweaked, in order to really accomplish what I had set out to do: Build a truely comp worthy truck off my own chassis. Well, it preformed beautifully....until about the 30 minute mark. Right front and rear left wheels aren't moving. Stripped hexes in the Erickson's? Couldn't be! It wasn't, and now I know why they no longer sell the old style axle shaft.:-x"

Thats funny, one of my wheels stripping

Exactly. They will outlast everything else on this truck, and were worth every penny. Thanks again.

Yes, unfortunately from the "donor" truck. It'll work for now.

Thanks. The knuckles are perfect and the shocks seem to be working pretty well so far. Still tweaking a little, but does that ever really stop?

Here's a short video of the new truck and Eric113's in action. Cut me a little slack, it's all I could do with a digi cam and a mini tripod. Here you go: More TLT at Bull Creek

Let me know what you guys think.
