In my shop. Doing stuff.
Went to the RAM off road park (XRRA races were a couple of weeks before). Took some guys for rides. I blame the 250 lb friend for the damage. Last 4 pictures are of a jump that I backed off of the throttle and the truck nosed over. I now know how much down force will bend a 10 bolt.

Holy ****, that looks fun! Sweet!! Time for a bigger axle. Great pictures!! Thanks for sharing !
 
Wow lol! looks like fun.


Im surprised your 10b isnt fully trussed. Guess the next one will be lol.
 
Wowzers getting crazy on the jumps! looks like fun!





and hey if that 10 bolt has 4.10 gears hit me up :D
 
Awesome pic, I luv to see a K5 airborne..screw the mud, screw the rocks, give me some wide open desert.
 
Agreed, seems like a lot of $ in suspension not to start with a trussed D60 to begin with. Nice flying rig though.
 
Your exhaust exit is pretty cool how did you go about doin that? Is it pretty much a straight shot thru the side? Awesome pictures btw:bow:
 
Holly hell Wade, you weren't lying about the new "smile" your tuck has now. Awesome pics!
 
A trussed front was not an issue in the sand in So. Ca. This hard ground is a whole different deal. Spent bucks on a bunch of steel today. Should have it back in form by Thursday of next week. I am told there are more pictures to come. Friends were shooting as I was running around.

As for a D60. Too much un-sprung weight under the nose. I could not get the truck balanced correctly. If it was a rear engine truck, oh yeh.

Now I just need to remember to stay on the gas a little to keep the truck level.
 
Light bulb went on on my way home from HD. I had the shell off and the winch on it. No wonder it nosed over so easy. 400lbs heavy in the front end. That was stupid.
