dam you must have a revolving door down there...don't you at least freshen up between clients? :gap:

dizzydevil

hell no its called seasoning...makes it taste better!

Loosekannon

I'm a slacker.... :wink2: I know. Both on updates and work  :yupyup:
Anyway the motor is only dropped 1 inch, got my duals together with the 10 degree adaptor. Ordered my bushings for the t-case cross member that I finally figured how I am gona do it. So it is still slow going, but with only two months left till the Bender run I guess I need to get moving on it  :beerchug:

How high above the frame rail did you mount your chassis?  Looks like 2" square tubing in the pic. 

I'm thinking of mounting mine up high also, maybe even on a rake like 81.  I was also thinking of skipping the flat belly to get a little more room for the seats.

Not A Toy

 :cheese:  so NOT to start off on the wrong foot nice build man I think these types of crawlers are my favorites! but I also overheard something about new  :boobs: are they the ones in that SWEETASS AVATAR? anyways like I said sweet build cant wait to see it ready to go and flexin on the trails  :thumbs:

How close is the header to that shackle, is there a heat concern? Because it looks close in the pic.

dizzydevil

header isn't bolted on right there(just hangin from the studs). Once it's bolted up it is about 3" to 4"

splasher

That should be enough I guess, Carry ON!

Oh, and nice build BTW.

Yeaah it's 2 inch sqaure tubing to space it up.

Thanks for posting the pics Jason, I know I am to lazy to do it. But unlike you, when it is 3 in the morning I am ready to sleep.  :slap:

dizzydevil

sleep....who needs it
