Your tires are too skinny :p
 






ill take you up on that trade for the 1354.... cooler for t-case its a deal.
 






Looks good. :thumbsup: Now weld that front up. :D
 






Thanks guys.

I got laid off yesterday from work so the sliders,new rear tube bumper and exocage will have to wait a couple weeks.

I actually wheeled it last weekend for the first time. It did great, i was very impressed with its performance and so were my friends. I had a problem with the PowerSteering again and had a problem with one of my rear calipers. I got the PS some what fixed but im still having a problem with the steering. I can turn all the way to the right but i cant get a full lock to the right. I think im going to mess with the pitman arm a bit to get it right.

I drives alright on the road but it wants to sway a bit. Me and my friend made a custom drop pitman arm and put a steering stabilizer on there and that helped it out a bit. It also needs an alignment. I just have to fix that brake problem and get a tracbar made for the rear and she is pretty much set.I figure i have about 11 inces of lift on it total. I didnt have to trim at all for the 38's.THe rims i put on them are 15X8 and they work great. I was running 5psi in them and never had a problem.

Trckmagik- Im going to go work on it tomorrow and i will take some pics. I have all the holes drilled ready to put them in but i need to get the rivet gun from nissanboy to put them in. I cant wait to get them in.

nissanboy- Ill give u a call :D

jamest- Its already been done :D . You cant beat the traction of it but its like wrestling with a monkey to steer. I unlock a hub and it helps a little, Im probably going to save up and get a powertrax or a detroit. I love that mini spool in the rear, but the tires dont :smoke:
 






Heres a side pic. THat 3rd window is the one i broke. Its ready for the canvas window to go in.Sheesh she's dirty.Hasnt been washed in two months.

your passenger rear springs looks like they have some bad negative arch. is that just the pic or are you getting that much spring wrap?

welded front + 38s + power steering problems = massive forearms!

looks good.
