Just bought an abandoned project, Gonna start on it real soon. Still gotta pick it up but here is a rundown and initial plans......Pictures ASAP.

Custom built chassis By The Hobbie Shop in Winchester KY. Will prolly be a four seater, not sure yet.
22RE 5 speed with duals cases and 4.70 low, 5.29 gears in toy axles 4 linked front and back with air shocks and sway bar, no springs, Plan on running a front axle in the rear also for rear steer, Full Hydraulic steering with PSC parts.
Prolly gonna run 38" BFGs but I have some 36" TSLs and a set of 35" KM2s I can start out with.

I am gonna have a lot of questions to ask and I plan on taking bunches of pictures.......
Biggest problem starting out, and why I don't have any pic's is I still owe the guy a grand and he won't let me bring it home yet. :thumbdown:

I have seen you guys are info thirsty so I'll try to make reagular updates with lottsa pics.

Open for suggestions and will give a look at them all.....Specially my own. ;)

Looks like my xtra cab may become a tow rig.

BadnewsBob

Yea it's gonna cost me more than i got, But rock bouncing here in the east is hard on your steering, It will be worth it later.

It's been slow getting parts for this thing, And I got laid off for three months, but the build is finally starting to progress. Big change in plans too, Going with a 4.3 chevy 700r4 combo, Stacking a NV233 with a Dana 300 still turning toy axles, Going to run coil over shocks in the front with air shocks rear, Both 16"ers.I will try and keep things going for you guys to watch. And because of cost I am gonna run 39.5" pitbulls.
