[Yota4life]

hmm if i do go and take the gooseneck mybe the spot will be open to the highest bidder!!

100$$$!!

[little_blue]

anyone else?? can you beat that!!

[Hyena]

got the radius arm all tacked together.  i am going to take that to work and weld it up with the mig.  also got the lower axle brackets plated so they aren't ripping off.  the panhard is mocked up for right now untill i get the steering parts.

[skipnrocks]

Looks good man, you did a good job at reinforcing everything!  is the bend in your panhard for clearing the dif?

[Hyena]

It's to clear the frame.  I might have to shorten the panhard though after i get the steering mocked up.  I wanted it as long and as flat as possible, thats what you see on all the comp buggies so it should work pretty good i hope.

[skipnrocks]

Its good planning to keep it long and flat as possable, it limits axle drag during articulation! 

[Ramrod]

all coming out tits, keep it up and get it done

[rednk1980]

look badass keep it up and it'll be done before you know it. 

[kiyul4130]

wish you could make it to the hammers (in this). it will be my first time there. ill be there this time i sware.

[Bazzi]

The panhard, I would rather try and keep it as close to the steering link (same level) as possible... so that they 2 have the same movement.

[Ramrod]

no steering link on this one

[kiyul4130]

ya, a tie rod.....kinda...ha

[Bazzi]

so you are going full hydro on us?

[Hyena]

Yep, full hydro.  i Already have the orbital from Ramrod.  the ram will be mounted on the back of the axle going straight to the backside of a double ended steering arm.  Tie rod will be in the front.

[Doof]

[4DEES]

So It's Gonna Have Bushings At the Axle End. What About the Frame End Of The Links? Heims? Lookin' Good brah!

[Hyena]

it has flex joints at the frame end.

[Yota4life]

looks beef

'Hey! who told you to do it that way!"

[Hyena]

"Let me show you how to do it!"

[Yota4life]

"Apply steady pressure and it should cut right through it!"

[Goose]

That things got some major beef to it.
I love it! 

[lilbuddy]

Hey brad dont forget to get a pic of your new bling 

[Hyena]

O Ya!  i installed it today but didn't get any pics of that.  But i also got the winch mounted too.

[Hyena]

I started it today which was the first time since i put it on jackstands.  the valves are so loud i think it might blow up. whatever i will deal with that later, they might just need to be adjusted.

[skipnrocks]

Thats a sweet way to mount the winch!   Verry clean!

[lilbuddy]

O Ya!  i installed it today but didn't get any pics of that.  But i also got the winch mounted too.

Sick tight bro.. Is it a little nicer then the one you had? haha

The winch looks good

[Ramrod]

good call on the expanded steel back there

[Hyena]

it is a lot nicer the the wheel i had!

i thought the cable from the winch could smash the radiator or something so i threw that expanded back there.

[Doof]

[lilbuddy]

Hey check it out.... A picture of the weekend at fordyce that you pat and i were talking about...
