Nice lookin Trac Todd, nice to see another tracster around these parts

 

[Crankcase]

Looking good...how is that canoe mounted to the roofracks? What do you have in between the boat and the rack?

 

[toad]

Crankcase, I made the crossbars myself just for the canoe and put pads to mount the foam blocks on, they are just a standard foam block that wraps around the gunnel, then I put the straps across and hook them to the cross bars.

Ok an update since I made some changes, I was having some front drive line issues due to my TT and homemade shackles which got me a little over 2", so my lovely wife got me a body lift for Christmas and I put it on and removed the Tt & shackles, my ride is improved and angles are normal again. maybe some day I can afford the superlift, until then this will do.

heres some pic.s of the body lift going on

With body lift and TT(I liked this but...)

Final product

You've got a nice sport trac there. Grade A material. Keep it up.

Looks good, but why not do a 1" TT and 1" shackles. I don't think you would get any ill effects with that setup.

Thanks everyone, j602, Im thinking about adding the extra 1" later but this is ok for now, if you mean just the 1" instead of the body lift, its because the tires wouldnt fit, 285,s rub a little and some trimming is req. even with 2" TT etc.

Yeah I meant add the 1" top of the body lift.
