Hey man that looks good. I like that setup. If you add just a little spring to the shock to raise it up. It'll have close to the same clearance as mine. Not much time to tweak it before the comp though. Does the rear pinion need to be turned up a little or is it the picture? |

Yep I can bring some to the comp. I think I have 3 different sets you can try. Bring it with you and we can wrench on it during the down time.

thanks,well you see the thing is I dont have it yet or my axles. if someone has some axles at the comp ill buy them and shocks maybe. someone will have a b4 tranny. if we can find a tranny Ill pull have axles and shocks off the sw2 and put them on the tuber so we can see it run and maybe I can get a vid

That looks real good so far - Damn it you guys are infecting me with tuber fever on the daily. And the only cure is going to be breaking the torch out of storage... |

Saw this tuber in person today. It was well built by this mystery man or woman. Hopefully I'll get to see it in action soon. What color is that? black or a hammered finish. Last edited by Cole82; 04-15-2007 at 07:58 PM. |

Looks good minus the greasy fingure prints. Put a trabby in it and take it for a spin. |
