Yea we got a good thing goin, the company is small it's me, him and one other guy. Basically he designed everything and then tells me and my coworker how to build it. I do 95% of welding and grinding and prepping for paint

The tires stick out so far there is no contact and the shocks won't bottom out upon uptravel

Tore the front axle apart today, it's rougher than I thought. The hubs had never been taken apart wince 1979. The blljoins look good though? Which is weird. I'll keep them till they need to be replaced. It was raelly low on oil, half the oil in it was really thick and muckily looking also
