My good bye 1 tons REbuild

[M-1028]

is that the ride height measurements? have you had a chance to flex it and see how close they get?

Yea thats ride height measurments, it dosn't roll yet but it should be rollin this weekend. I'll get the #'s ASAP.

Are those cable shifters something you fabbed up yourself, or something you bought?

Actually a freind of mines dad works for Varco, and he gave them to me. I'll see if I can get a brand and part #. They work awsome.

subscribed... what a sick build

I know! Me 2nd!

 

[M-1028]

We are supposed to get about 3 more sets of the shifters but there all spoken for. SORRY GUYS

Well my brakes and orbital came in. Got the orbital mounted today, getting the lines made tommorow.

The willwood calipers are going to work perfect except I ran into a snag. I have to get the front rotors turned to get the calipers to fit (these brakes are Pi$$ing me off) .

Anyways I have to pick up ALOT of parts tommorow, and will get some pics. Hopefully it will move under its own power this weekend.

Later

Keep us posted in the future when you get some of those shifters! Thanks!

OK, if we have an extra set or two I'd be willing to sell you guys some shifters.

Well finally some good news, all I have left to do is make caliper brackets, finish the trac bar, get my exhaust redone, rear steer hoses, and get some fittings for break lines. My list is getting shorter

It will definatly be done by next weekend

Yea we try to go 2-3 times a year, but the Halloween run is the ride we make no matter what.

If you see me up there don't be shy

Here you go, super 8, 3/4 ton front rotors, and wilwood dynalite calipers. The caliper is not mounted in this picture its just setting on the rotor.

FINALLY some progress pics, front steering is done here is a pic of the orbital.

Looking good

Also got the rear steer done, IT'S AWSOME. The pump works better than I could have hoped.

The trac bar mount

 

[DavidB]

I had to chuckle at myself 'cuz the trac bar made me do a double-take 'cuz it has an angle for the axle instead of a radius.

I understand how the hydraulic system works for the rear steer but how did you run the valve to pump it in one side or the other? Basically how do you control what hose it pumps fluid through?

Is it a seperate switch like they run in the monster trucks or did you set it up differently?
