Started to cut my lower hinges. Well it didn't cut all the way threw. So I got mad and chopped the bolt heads off.

Rattlesnake up to Waynes world, no problem, Constrictor, well........that depends on how much you like or hate your rig, I did Constrictor up to Eagles nest (bypassed Waynes world) on 3" & 31's, locked rear, but it was at a cost. Bent tie rod and some serious undercarriage bashing occured.
Don't know if I'll be out Sunday, still thinking about it. Put me down as a definite maybe or not.

Mines all satan black with the linkage painted a gun metal grey. I think mixing it up looks ok if its subtle. I know it does nothing other than pimp it out a bit, but I'm kinda old school and have never lost my love for the trick the hotrod guys use to show off their suspension components with contrasting colors. Its what looks good to you Shawn, so ultimately it will have to be your decision.

I know someone was asking about these... I think its was Fathan16... Chrom 35 spline D44 shafts, with 5x4.5, and 5x5.5 paters, also work well for fitting the Waggy D44 up front with ford hubs and 5x5.5....

Right on, anyone is welcome to come, just don't be to late!

I ran Rattle snake and constrictor open-open with 31's... just turned around at the rapids. but you will need to watch your rockers in some areas, unless you have sliders.

Thanks for the reminder... I couldn't view it at work... AWESOME ADD! lol

Bottom line: if this car were any more advanced, it would stand up and say 'Autobots, roll out!'
