I did not get much of a chance to watch Austin or Joey run thier's at Nat's. So I figured it was time to try somthin new this year. I was able to get ahold GateKeeper to see if I could get my hands on one out of the first batch. Well after gettin it I have to say it is a Special friendly chassis to set up (smoooth as butter). Now it's time to see if it will handle a 20' cliff

.
You all now the run down on parts so I'll just get to the pic's..

Thanks for lookin SpEd.

Wow Special looks good

Now you need to get it out on the rocks.

Just a thought. I think I would switch the springs (stiffer in the rear and softer up front).

Tell me I did not put them on backwards, I thought the pinks were softer then the yellow ones. I'm runnin 70 wieght oil in the rear 60 up front. I need to get this thing on some rocks I guess I could test it in the back yard.

NaZ-T · 09-24-2007, 11:18 PM

Nope the yellow are the softer ones

Alway glad to help SpEd.

RXcrawler · 09-25-2007, 03:37 PM

Looks good Ed!!! I'm running the yellows in the back and whites up front. I forget the oil weight....maybe 30 all the way around.

fathead · 09-25-2007, 05:58 PM

looks good Ed cant wait to see it run in St. George... Do you have a place to stay down there yet?

themerc64 · 09-25-2007, 06:20 PM

I like that chassis! Where can I get some of those disabled radio operator stickers? We have 3 guys in our group that qualify for using those. I would be happy to buy them from whoever is making them? Please!

dieselfuel · 09-25-2007, 06:30 PM

Looks great Ed

Man, the weather is great down here right now

SPECIAL ED · 10-07-2007, 09:00 PM

I finaly had a chance to take this out and play with it. I'm really happy with how it performed out at little moab (main crawl place for us Utahards). First thing I need to do is redo the shock oil I'm a little to thick (70 wieght on the rear, 60 up front) I'm not use to running my shocks this way..

On to the pics..Thanks to DeanO for the pics.

Are the Reign products not floating your boat anymore?

SPECIAL ED · 10-07-2007, 09:13 PM

Somthing new.. I did this last year after Nats so I figured I would continue it this year. Nothing against Reign Products I still have the J2-TT if need be for the future Plus my KII's.
