Well, yesterday i took it to sprockets to install the front. Went pretty good until it got busy there. Its hard to cut and grind when there are other cars a few feet from you on either side. (other people probably wouldnt like molten metal on their 24" rims) I ended up saying it on cutting and grinding there, and just installed the axle. I can finish the cutting and grinding in the parking lot at the barracks. I still need to have the shock hoops welded in and the steering stabelizer welded. I also need to get a longer drive shaft. Anybody know a good source? And im a little worried about the shackle angle. Hopefully it will correct a little when the back is lifted.
Feels like im on a roller coaster driving this thing around now =)
