He has Epidermolysis bullosa. A very rare skin disease where he was born with no skin on part of his body and will suffer the rest of his life through chemo treatments and other experimental procedures as there is no cure. He is kind of a test subject for new practices in a sense and he is only 9 months old... Hopefully it'll become an annual thing at AOP. Tom, Richie Keith, Bobby Tanner, Shelby Tanner, The Bacon boys, Randall Key, and Scott Goforth all came out and donated big time. It was a really good event for Reid. You gotta know people to change thread names.

Did well. All the new parts worked great. Need to do a lot of little stuff but there were no new noises or leaks. It was so muddy I didn't get to try out the Reds to their full potential because the trails and rocks were so wet, but they did good on what they did do. Needs a traction bar and some heat relief from under the hood. Other than that, awesome.

Yes. I got it up to 4000 climbing some hills pretending I was a bouncer.

Dang Will, you got that Cherokee looking like a beast now! Looks great. What steering set up are you running (tie rod, drag link, track bar)? I am wanting to put that same kind on mine.

Swapped in a new 2500 MC. The stock one didn't move enough fluid to lock the brakes up. With the stock booster it does good now, it can lock up all 4 no problem.

Got everything together and went to a charity event this weekend for my friends nephew. We raised $30,000 and had a great time. Look up Crawling for Reid on Instagram and facebook for pics/ videos or if you want to make a donation.



Here is NAGAXJING


















Next on the list is a traction bar and some little stuff.

Yeah the dodge 2500 MC helped a lot. The stock one wouldn't push near enough fluid and wouldn't even lock up a wheel without a tire on it.

I didn't catch it, but what booster are you running? I need to get a 96 dual diaphragm or whatever. I was actually looking at the 1500mc I read it was closer to bolt on or something.


edit: this is what HRDROKN used. I think I'll just order that http://www.summitracing.com/parts/tff-2123nb/overview/

Stock 94 booster. The 2500 did require some grinding to bolt all the way up.

I have a 98 booster in my garage, but I'm in no hurry to swap it out.
