Maddog Madigan's Yeti

[Maddog Madigan]

Actual rock scraps are what adds character. Lol

Today I'm doing a little multi-tasking. Working on house and some wiring. First rule I keep forgetting , happy wife.....happy life. So here is the non boring stuff I'm working on today for the moment.

Planning is key!

Hopefully I'll have more progress later today.

Awesome build!
Just curious as to what lengths the front and rear limiting straps are?

Are you using shock tower for the exo.

Yes but had to drill holes for body mount post.

So things are slowly coming in from TH. All in stock but get this....they're shipping each piece separate. Wtf umm your dime I guess.
Did manage to get some elusive vp parts. Yes the steering arms that I received did come without the notch. Really easy fix with carbide bit/Dremel and wallah.....

Very nice, I'd sure like a set of methods. Are they the 1" can?

Black ones are stick still, the silver ones have the 1.25 cans from CFM.

That shot of the front looks cool. Nice rig.

Man you were right there...replace those plastic nuts for the Arm pins with 3mm lock nuts. Really a good quick and cheap mod you'll be happy you did.

 

[Maddog Madigan]

Thanks guys, I will be swapping out those nuts when the f1 plate is ready to be installed.
The bumper is gonna get a new paint job. Werty made a wicked little piece.

Three packages came in today, two came Wednesday, the final two are coming Saturday or Monday. And shipping was free, I'd say.

This weekend will be more progress towards the yeti and waiting on the motor mount and shock tower. That will make it another break down, ugh.

Really shouldn't complain, it's fun tinkering.

 

[Maddog Madigan]

Found some time this morning to quickly install some parts on Yeti#1 and strip Yeti #2 for parts upgrades.
Waiting for motor mount Monday.



Pics will come soon on #2

Freqeskinz style.....[emoji39]

Neil@freqeskinz.com had made this and another wrap for me for the Yeti's. Great to work with and always helpful. Thanks again Neil.

More to come

 

[Maddog Madigan]

Picture update....parts list update will come soon. Many things added.

I can't wait to see this rig n action, in my opinion this is the best build of an Yeti on this site, magazine material for sure"thumbsup"

Both graphic sets look super.... To nice to scrape up.
