Ok thought so, I do that lots of times posting and thought of something to add, then edit like five times. 0.071" wire cool, should be about proper. Roger that!

Oh was going to say I like the new Locked up RC and Super Shafty beadlocks collaboration:
New 1.9 UpperHafty from SuperShafty

Separate wheels and rings type so easy to mount tires. Look good too.

Just a note to remind you that Codyboy Design will be closed until November 10th.
The other thing is that Marcia and I are now on a coast to coast to coast for the next 45 days. Some of you thought it might be fun to post about our happenings every day. So here is the link for that.
Codyboy Coast to Coast to Coast in 45 days!!
Also I have two sets of beef tube axles with me that I can mail out along the way. First come first serve.
Ernie,

Where's this sweet K10 now Ernie?

I realize you're probably busy catching up building heavy bullet proof axles and stainless steel tubing sliders.

Thanks for bringing it up Nate, I have changed a couple thing, I'll get some photos up later today. I'm working on shortening some Icon shocks for my Northwest Express build right now . If some of you want to check it out it's in the 1.9 section, going to use some modded ascender axles on it.

Here is a little work I've finished on this little guy.

I made my rulr (link risers) and mounted them and some of my Gullwing sliders, and moved my speed control. The speed control and mount were in the way of the new angle of the rear links. Also had to take off the sway bar.



I also moved my battery mount to behind the front shock towers.



A nice look at my sliders.

Be sure and share with us. You should be getting your axles today or tomorrow.
I'm not getting a lot of help from the post office on the lost set.

Yep I got them and the sliders(tyvm btw) today. Very nice work, you really are doing a great service. Do those sliders you sent fit the k10 body??? After I finish this interior, I was thinking of doing a wb4 k10....

The sliders are for the K10 body, and glad you finally got your axles! Still trying to get the Post Office to track them down for me. When I checked today there response was "we have been really busy". Oh well.

You got it! Any thing else you need for the K10 body mounting? I may send Rhett a few things for your trucks.

What are the odds that the slider mount could integrate a rear upp link mount?
