my turbo build. plan on doing a write up as soon as the new turbo comes. (200 miles on a china turbo and it blow up)

 

Nice! I want a turbo!

 

Turbo FTW!!!!

 

Homemade sway bar adjustable discos. Not finished though

 

Nice, I've got all the materials to make mine, I just need to actually do it. You should probably get another jam nut in there also, otherwise it can still move.

 

It won't move when attached to sway bar because it won't let the discos spin

 

jam nuts aren't to keep it from spinning, they're to keep the threads from stretching due to tension/compression forces by keeping the thread engagement tight. JerrytheJeep is right you need a jam nut on both sides.

Only problem I see is those being a PITA to disconnect unless you disco both ends somehow since you used rubber bushings on both ends instead of a swivel joint...

 

Put a u fixture on the top with a stud going to the sway bar eye. But yeah need another jam nut. Ya'lls sway bar mods are cute

 

I tightened the nut on it to test and its really tight. The steel is alloy, not hot rolled. The threads are machined to close tolerances, they won't be stretching.

I plan to put a fixture up on fender so when I disconnect bottom, I ll just pin it to top of the well with same pin.

 

Yes they will. Just go pay another dollar at osh and get some more stainless jam nuts. If you didn't need them then why did you put one on?

 

There's 4 inches of threads inside that tube it's more than enough of threads to hold it in

 

A few basic ones:

Homemade axe holder complete with a custom Canadian protection cover for protecting the back of my head This is just a prototype I am going to iron out soon. Two shelf brackets criss-crossed and bolted to the existtng spare tire mount bolts. Using zap straps to keep it tight in there, but open to suggestions on this one.

CB mount made from basic angle bracket from HD. Drilled it out to 3/8" to fit the antenna as well as for mounting through quarter panel for strength.

Fire Extinguisher, nothing special. 2 machine screws bolted from back to keep solid.

 

yea that should be ok if it's in that far.

This is a problem you will run into though - the swaybar is not lined up directly above the mount - it's offset about 1". You'll need to account for this somehow (this is why the stock links had a bend in them)

 

Yes you are right it's offset. I am going to make an u bracket next. For the top. With the bottom. I am going to machine a pin with a spacer between axle bracket and the disco so it will be straight.

 

Made a cowl intake out of some PVC pipe, the stainless pipe from my e-bay cai and a K&N filter. It's pretty loud when accelerating but I kinda like it.
