Well,it's still not finished but I FINALLY took this thing out(or tried to anyway).The front had a bad pinion angle so we ramped it a few times on Friday at work and it didn't seem to bind so I thought it'd be fine for now...WRONG!!!  :smack: We tried to run Pumpkin Eater and on the first obstacle I noticed my driver side tire wasn't spining so I started to back down and in doing so the driveshaft and pinion yoke started binding  :shake: .So rather than continuing on and braking it I turned around and headed back to camp  :down: .Now I have to cut and rotate the knuckles and figure out why my hub wasn't working,wich is cool though because there's still a few things I need to finish on it.

I don't know where that is in the suspension cycle, but it looks like you could get by with one of the off-set u-joints from Tom Woods and some grinding on the pinion yoke.  It would be a hell of a lot easier than cutting and rotating the c's.  BTW, it looks good!
Doin' it FULLSIZE style!

It looks so happy and at home in the dirt, you need to bring it back asap before the MACHO taco becomes the TRISTE TACO
