SICK!!!!!!! Beautiful, Raven!

Ravencraft

Thanks fellas. Now my problem is finding someone to go riding with! My buddy who helped build it is out... His wife decided to have the darn baby Saturday night and for some reason that means he can't go play for a while...

THEN, my fellow Yotatech-er across the street decided to, well, take his truggy out of commission down in Harlan this past weekend... SO, I'm not going to go break this thing in with no assistance around. Anyone in the NKY/Cincinnati or, heck, Eastern Kentucky area planning anything soon???

Sorry bud. Dropped it off tonight to get the alignment done/steering wheel re-centered.

Really struggling to find someone local to go wheeling with. I guess if I don't find someone by this weekend I'll just have to find a dirt pile to flex it out on.

ahhhhh you coulda done the alignment wheel/recenter yourself! It's so friggen easy with a Solid axle!! lol

Go wheel it!

Alright alright, I took it out to a local off road park here in Northern Kentucky this morning. I couldn't be happier. It did everything I asked of it and more. Pics:















The last one there is a little hole that I got peer-pressured into trying. Super rutted out and I'd be lying to say that I just powered through it on the first try. Had to forward/reverse her a few times, but eventually walked right out of it. That locker makes all the difference in the world.

The most awesome thing about it, though, unlike every other truck out there, I just drove it home. No need for a trailer

Diggin the pics.

Not sure if anyone would be interested, but I'm easily amused. A guy from Ohio that was on a quad with a camera mounted on it was at the off road park on Saturday... It's nothing special, but he took about a ten second video of me going through a little mud hole. No sound, and not great quality, but I got a kick out of it. Randomly found it on youtube!

Thats a awesome truck ya got there! Great job on it. All that work and waiting pay's off

Ravencraft

Thanks man. It's definitely a lot of work, and not over yet! Once I get my brother's Volkswagen out of the garage I need to tear into one of the knuckles on the yota again. I've got some noise come from it that makes me think that I screwed up the trunnion bearings.

Awesome write up! i am putting together my kit right now. you need to bob that bed dude! makes all the difference in the world on your approach angles. my truck has no lift so it made a big difference for me! not sure if it would make that big of a difference with that beast!
