your welder cart is sweet!

The truck is looking badass, what size tubing did you use 1 3/4 or 2" it look pretty big.

6.72:1 · « **Reply #167 on:** Apr 13, 2007, 07:14:27 PM »

That is one bad-a welding cart.

Probably fire resistant too!

Its about time you posted on this thread.

The rig is looking good.

What air pressure are you running with your swampers? Maybe aired down a little more you would crawl a bit better and avoid bouncing through the rocks.

yotadork83 · « **Reply #172 on:** Jun 18, 2007, 07:17:26 PM »

what was that chunk of metal after all?

MR_DIY · « **Reply #173 on:** Jun 18, 2007, 07:24:09 PM »

tires were at 7psi appx.... I don't know why they weren't flexing b/c they normally do. I was bouncin and jumping everything b/c my carb wouldn't stay running no matter what... it sucked.

the teflon block was my rear tcase mount spacer.... the bolts vibed out on the trail... no biggie
