Thanks man! Well the xmember is what it is right now. Ive gotta weld my brackets on it for my arms, but ill do that as soon as i mock em up. Im also gonna weld the crossmember into place.

 

Dang. Should of at least cleaned the case! SYE looks like a toe ring on a gorilla.

 

I know huh. I thought about it. But then realized.. im lazy. Haha

 

Alright, so this isn't an update as of now. But about a week and a half to two weeks ago... I've been too busy to get much pictures of my work, so i'll get more when i have time. But here's just a few of some junk...

So Cory decided to be a ******* and shoot me a link to a tracbar... I'd been searching for the right tracbar for months. then he just throws this one at me... So i bought it and it showed up in a couple days. It was nice to finally get the damn thing!!



This is the bracket that i thought would be easiest to work with/beefy.



My DOM for the arms and steering linkage



The bigger is for my arms. It's a 2 1/4 OD 1 1/2 ID and a .375 wall. It's beefy as shiiiit! And the steering stuff is just 1.5 OD and 1 ID.



And the damn 44 finally got put back together after about 7 months of being in pieces!! Complete with a spool and 4.88 gears. Kinda wish i woulda went lower. But oh well...




That's all for pictures and time i have now. I'll be back later with some real updates.

 

nice! so where are the pics from today? this thing moving witht he new axles yet? going to be ready by next sat?

 

Ill have the girlfriend take some pics when she comes over and its not movin yet. Though i wish!! And it probably wont be ready by then either. Im still half way through the front end. And i still need too run break lines, a rear driveshaft, and whip up some transfercase linkage (mines all messed up) so we'll see haha.

 

So this afternoon? Just playing. what are you doing for linkage? "cory's" mod? looks like this. (so I have been told...) I will do this eventually some rainy day... http://www.bsfab.net/?p=26

 

Yes ive seen that. But i think im just gonna replace the lower arm on the linkage with something. Its bent and i hate the bushings.

 

Heres some sneak peak

 

Right on. How much did that one link cost ya? thinking of doing that setup on mine...

 

Im not really sure. I bought Ballistic's 7/8 high mis. steering kit. Its like 270 or something. Comes with the DOM, all the joints and spacera.

 

Thats fawkin beautiful, Im diggin it!!!

maybe I missed it, but what do you plan on doing with your rear wheel wells?

 

Lookin good, those arms are gonna be beef!! Did you do your gears or did you have someone do them?

 

Im just gonna cut em back about another six inches. The well is already opened up a bit.

 

I had the 44 done by someone else. I dont have the patience for the 44.
