Perfect time to goto vegas, get a small loan for like 10,000 bet it all on red and then of course you will win, you can pep up your account and buy steaks for everyone!!

i said that same exact thing 4 days ago at my place. i was talking to my friends about taking out a 10K loan placing it all on black and seeing how it goes.

skipnrocks · January 10, 2008, 04:32:03 PM

Hey got a fifty fifty chance right!!! Pretty good odds!!

Ramrod · January 10, 2008, 05:47:02 PM

flopp that!! plus kiyul would be buying a whole lot more than steaks if he won 10k

Kyle with your luck youd lose it all...

Doof · January 11, 2008, 11:24:08 AM

that would be one shitty loan to pay off if you didnt win. every payment you would just be pissed and think, wow this freakin' blows

Quit being a pesimist, glass is always empty with you isnt it? Why cant it just be a long ways from full?

Doof · January 11, 2008, 12:16:49 PM

hahahaha long ways from full... classic

Hyena · January 14, 2008, 02:14:24 PM

Nothing much is new. Got the link brakets made today. Axles is getting geared today also so i should have it back later. waiting for my link parts to show up from Ballistic.

skipnrocks · January 14, 2008, 02:58:23 PM

nice lookin tabs, howd you cut em

Doof · January 14, 2008, 04:30:44 PM

my guess would be a CNC at work??

or torch and grinder to clean up a little

Ramrod · January 14, 2008, 06:40:49 PM

what are the 2 farthest over on the right for?

Hyena · January 14, 2008, 06:59:53 PM

Plasma and an ironworker. The two on the right are for the upper link to the top of the diff. Middle ones are for the lowers on the frame and the left are for the lowers on the axle. i will be bending the lowers out at the axle to help clear the tires.

Hyena · January 14, 2008, 07:00:28 PM

It would be nice to have a cnc plasma but not yet. I hear our new shop will have one.

Ramrod · January 14, 2008, 07:09:34 PM

shweet thats what I thought but was confused by us having our uppers on differnt sides

Austin W · January 15, 2008, 06:57:22 PM

those brackets look nice

Hyena · January 21, 2008, 05:51:39 PM

skipnrocks · January 21, 2008, 06:11:14 PM

Thats perty! what size tubing did you use on your controll arms? I may have to bend mine like that when I get my 42s on but I was worried that a bend might be too compermising? Diff cover came out awesome!

gotrocks · January 21, 2008, 06:16:48 PM

Brad are you using the start stop method for welding?

btw your fab skill are definitely improving.

Hyena · January 21, 2008, 06:23:57 PM

The lowers and the panhard are 2 inch .250 wall DOM i had left over from when i linked the rear. the bend should hurt anything. I do circles when i weld most of the time. but if there is a little to big of a gap then i do a lot of tacks and brace it. the truss isn't done yet. there will be a brace on the top along side the upper link mount. and the truss is welded directly to the top of the diff housing also. Where the truss is welded to the passenger side is actually welded to steel, not the cast. i plated the spring perch right there with 3/8's and welded that to the cast plus 2-9/16's grade 8 bolts that go into the housing. it should be pretty strong. i might brace it even more with the shocks mounts too.
