You looking at my short u-bolts in the rear? If you are, no worries I've got zero rates on the way and allready have new u bolts that I am putting on, those were temporary just so I could get the thing rolling.

Nope, haven't even tried still. I was just gonna toss my core support in there and start it for the hell of it. But I decided to finish everything up and get my whole front clip all done up so I can have it almost driveable. Ordering all my brake parts and what not this week or early next week I hope. I ordered my HAD shaft last week, so that should be here soon, I'm stoked for that. I will have updates with some pics this weekend, it's gonna be worth the wait, this thing is really coming together!!:D :D
 
awsome man. Like always if you need a hand let me know. I think im going to put that tranny/t-case in this weekedn if the weather coperates.
 
Dude that thing sounds sweet! :bow: Any more clips? I'd love to hear more. Cam specs?

Thanks, I will get some more clips up when the thing is more complete. Cam specs, I'll get back on that, I'm at school now and don't have it off the top of my head. In the video, that was only 3k rpm, I had it up to 4k and the thing sounds rediculous. When it gets broken in, I'm supposed to be able to hit 6k.

Hey, how ya been? You get that tranny and transfer case in yet? If you need a hand let me know. Yeah, we're gonna be wheelin here in a few months. Got my hyrdaulic clutch all put together and working great last night too. Hydroboost brakes are being professionaly rebuilt down in portland right now. Even got my HAD rear shaft last week. This thing is coming together well. I'm almost done spending money thank goodness, I've got too much money into this thing! We'll have to make a few trips wheelin this summer for sure.
