Bad ass.
and then.........:mrgreen:
Busy week at work, yearly audit & re-cert, hate that shiiiiiit, always slows everything to a crawl.
........and then, I think the tranfer case hangs too low. Thinking about cutting the bottom rails off again. I dont think I can raise the engine, the aircleaner already sticks out past the cowl.
Also stuck with the link mounts, but I think that can be solevd after I do something about the transfer case.

This rig is looking awesome. I have the same engine waiting for a body to go around it. Glad to see one of these getting built "thumbsup"

nice build so far cant wait to see it complete"thumbsup"
Well, I got the rear upper & lower link mounts on, but not sure I like them either. This has got me thinking of going to an scx frame for the skid, link mounts, & front half. I'd probably chop it after the rear links.
Is my probation over yet? I've taken a long enough break."thumbsup":ror:
Well, finally got the frame back from a friend. He was supposed to do something for me, but I changed my mind. Then it took forever to get it back from him.
In the mean time, I built a honcho to test out some things. I stretched the WB to 12 3/4", will probably go to 13". Put a summit trans in w/Jason's mount. Thanks bro."thumbsup"
Now with the tube back in my hands I can make some progress again. I'm ditching the RC3WD stuff in favor of the Axial axles & summit trans. I'll also use the scx frame rails. While looking at everything & planning a course of action it appears as if the tube will have to bolt on to the frame rails. There is no way the trans would be able to go in or out if welded together.
I spent my luck break thurs & fri cutting the bottom of chassis off below the bottom of door line & making the tabs to mount to the rails. Monday I'll get it welded on & should be able to move on to the shock hoops.
I'll get pics tomorrow.

Dang Sheldon, you got some cash tied up in that rig....nice."thumbsup"
Well, I've been wheeling' & dealing' lately, so most of it came from bartering."thumbsup" Not a lot of out of pocket expense. Most of that is in material & supplies. Damn safety silv is expensive.
Back on track & progress to report. Cut the entire bottom off, got the mouts for the cage to the frame on, shock hoops on.
