Nice man!! The truck looks great! you gotta keep those wheels and tires.. How high is it to the frame rail right by where the skidplate bolts to?

I agree, you gotta keep the tires and wheels! My guess on the current frame height is 26.5" with the 37s. How close am I?

thanks bro! and i'm not sure what it is to the frame right now, BUT ITS TOO TALL! i'm guessing around 27. I gotta lower it big time, the pumkin was like 24.5 with the 37's! It will get lowered this week after i move the box forward.

yeah i'm keeping them. I just cant justify spending like 3k on a new set of 40's and beadlocks. its just not worth it. I can go pretty much everywhere i need to with 37's

Yeah, you could probably loose a spring or 2 and bolt up some shorter shackles real easy. I am sure the 37s get the job done just fine. Plus those beadlocks are just sick!

NITE KRAWLERS · « **Reply #369 on:** Nov 16, 2009, 09:43:43 PM »

Leave it up to you to break it pumpkin and ya will. As for minicrawler, which is right (minicrawler) we just dont have the time for you to be in the front only spin n the back tires. Sorry bro you'll have to go in the back, so even if pumkin breaks and i roll , we'll get it fixed and rolled back over and still be wait n for the mini! ha ha lol

i'm workin on it tonight! movin the steering box forward so i can actually wheel it! then i'm gonna take a couple leafs out the front so i can lower the whole truck. Unfortunately Marlin let us down. They jewed up our order so all we got was sliders and no steering box frame brace kit

so i had to get off work early today so i could build the plates and sleaves myself! Hate to say it but we should have ordered from TG

they always ship their stuff fast!

so we got the steering box all moved forward last night. plated up the frame real nice and whatnot. turned out great! I will post some pics later. right now i'm gonna go out and take a couple leaves out of the front pack and see if i can lower it down a bit. Also the rig was running crappy for the first four or five days i had it home, then it finally came out of it and ran great. Then last night i disconnected the battery so i could do all the welding and now it runs like dog

again! this is really pissin me off, apparently the ecu is taking a long time to adjust and its really $That\'s Gay$

Ive had it happen a few times too. Last time I called I got put on hold for 20 minutes, hung up and called back and they were closed.next morning I got put on hold for like 10 minutes, hung up and called back about 20 times, no answer. I posted up a rant on the customer service board and got a call back about 2 hours later. took 9 days to get the parts to phx. I orderd my marlin gearset from inchworm, was here in 2 days, tg bumpers/sliders 3 days, allpro tcase ebrake and springs, 3 days. a few days ago I posted some tg parts for sale and they got deleted. what the

Ya dudes MC is all cool and stuff but they do take their time getting your stuff out the door. When a guy finally gets the coin to get something and order it the last thing ya want is half the order and for it to take forever to get there. I've ordered stuff from MC and TG and TG seems to have it together in the ship n area. ALso i think TG stuff is great, haven't had one problem with stuff they have. Nor with MC, but come on man fo real!! My sliders are from TG and i have beat the

out of them. Sounds like if ya try to sell TG gear on MC they are all over that, should try that in their ship n area to eh.. Anyway all sounds good. Just make your own stuff and

, seems to work for us. Nice ride pumpkin. Ya ready for this weekend to wheel that thing?

yeah dude my buddy that ordered the parts has been trying for three days to get ahold of them! they dont answer the phone, they dont return his emails, its a bunch of crap!

and i'm stoked to get out and wheel this thing this weekend! gotta get that damn e lock wired up.

here is some pics of the steering box brace and the new NON-interfering tie rod and drag link!

also took a couple leaves out of the front pack. it lowered the front about 1.5 inches. It sits level now, but its still too tall overall.
