My driveline showed up today...just need to get it lengthened and I am ready to wheel again......

 

Wow about time. Cool get it stretched and lets wheel Rover!

 

Took some clean pics today.....I like it!!!

 

Yup! That officially confirms it. You suck!

It looks rad. Rover is a beast.

 

now it needs some dent and some good granite scrapes and it will be truly pimpin!!!!

 

You need a big heavy winch and bumper now.

 

and some dingleballs over the windshield and some big bull stickers for the side doors

 

I should just get some fuzzy dice on the rearview mirror like Fartruk

 

how about some "powered by budweiser" stickers to make sure you are given the V.I.P. treatment at sobriety checkpoints

 

Hey Marc when are you planning to break that bad boy in? If you are going to do it on a weekend let me know so I can roll down haha...maybe this weekend so I can pick my parts up too???

 

hey i finally got to see marc's rig in person today and pictures do not do it justice it looks BADARSE!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now we just got to get the front shaft in and take it out and flip it over!!!!!

 

Dropped the driveshaft off today to be lengthened and balanced..should be done thursday. Then I just need to find the bolts for it....

No, I wont be pulling a "Ryan"

 

aww come on marc it will make you famous and it only cost him 1700 bones such a bargain for infamy!!!!

 

I need ideas/products to use to secure my SS brakelines. I have the stock tabs welded to the frame in about the same location as stock, but with the shock towers instead of hoops I have no where to secure them so they dont rub on my tires......Ideas??

I am thinking about hose clamps around the shocks with some sort of hoop attached.

Pic of my issue...

 

A friend of mine used what looked like a version of a retractable-wire key lanyard. I just got a glance at it but I think it was specifically made for the purpose of keeping lines out of the way. Ill look into it.

 

Marc what about eye bolts? google it, you can get all shapes and sizes. you can drill a hole and screw them in or weld em on? get em in stainless steel to match the brake lines.
Is your truck any slower with all the extra weight?

 

No slower...it is slow enough already.

On Pirate it looks like the way to go is springs. I need to go find some.

 

i just left mine... the tires don't touch them at all. i am a little wider then you though...

 

Marc I thought you said they would not balance the shaft for you?

 

When I first talked about lengthening the driveshaft the guy was just going to add spline to the shaft...after seeing my truck and the driveshaft, he is just added tube...so he will balance it.
