I think they turned out great too.  Better then we expected.  they are sooo stiff, i think they just might hold up when an exo is built for it.  Chris built the outer part by himself since he has had some time off of work.  I just helped make the legs and plate the frame and mount them to the frame.  I can't wait for it to be done either.  Hopefully it will be done by the Rubithon.

Wow, you have a bf Sky?   No way!

So i machined Chris's flywheel at school.  He is getting a new clutch for it and then he can put the tranny back in.

Okay so i have got myself into something i shouldnt have. I'm basicly going all out on my truck. I figure i better build the way i want it. So im putting my 350 in it a SM465 and hopefully a atlas I could do it the cheap way and use a NP205 which is alright but a atlas is better. Thats what im shooting for so its gonna be awhile before im on the trail with it.

ahh good to hear about going bigger now.  Sounds like you'll have your rig close to what I'm planning for my next project.  When do you think you'll be starting on the engine swap and such?

The truck hasn't changed since those pictures.  He needs to sell the toyota engine tranny and then he can buy an Atlas and get started with mounting the 350.  Someone needs to buy his 22re, it runs strong.

Im hoping to have my atlas by the end of this month it takes about 2 weeks for them to build it and then i just gotta mount everything. Im waiting to mount the motor and tranny cause i want to get it as close to flat as possible to the bottom of the frame.

i have a full hydro system a howe setup it is sweet. it never once didnt turn it would either move the truck or a rock.
i have a single ended ram simple to mount and if it breaks you still have a tierod to steer with well turn the wheels.
OH YEAH THE ONLY TO BREAK STEERING WISE WAS A 3/4x3/4 HEIM

I asked the moderators to clean up the thread a bit.  Hopefully all the BS will be taken out of it.
