Locktup is working on my toy as we speak!  How do I get one of those "rigged by locktup" stickers?  I'd like to give credit where credit is due!

Be careful with those "trade for beer" comments-- I got a slap on the hand for that last month!  It's ok guys, we're both well over 21!

The engine ran very well thanks..I was very surprised at how much more low end power this stroker motor has than my stock propane powered motor..I rarely used my 2nd t-case and could power over most anything in 1st or 2nd gear with little effort..it pulled very hard and would leap over most of the rocks...a big thumbs up for the new LC stroker motor.. :bowdown:

I'm surprised the exo didn't fall off. In fact I'm surprised the front axle didn't fall off  :dunno:. I guess JB weld is strong :pokinit:.

looks like the only real damage was done when i flopped it over on the soup bowl..just a small section of tubing near the back of the cab flat...I was surprised to see the oil pan had a few marks from hitting the 4-link...i'll have to limit the compression of the shock a little more..

I ran most of the "con" without ever having to lock the 2nd case down..something to be said about horse power..

one great feature of the SDS fuel system is the ability to change the fuel/air ratio while driving.I mounted the control box to my inside roll cage bar for easy adjustment.good for cold starts and high altitude..just turn the knob to rich or lean out the mixture..very cool..
