Post pics of your new bumper. I know you want to be as cool on the internet as me.

No, really, lets see it.

 

The one that is at the powder coater for 7-10 working days?

I don't have any pics of it, but I can take some when it comes back.

I bit the bullet and ordered Superior Dana 44 Evolution Series Alloy Front Axle Shafts and Dana 44 CTM's. $1100 alone.

Time to smoke some front tires...........



I have the front drive shaft back from Jesse and tomorrow I put the Front Range crossmember in.

 

Did you sell the old one yet?

 

Or do you mean the TJM that is now back on? With the 3/8" thick brackets. Rasied an inch for the BL?



That looks really good too.

 

Within 30 minutes. 10+ offers.

 

Does that mean you are ready to make 10+ more?

Shoot me a pic via e-mail. I'd like to see the front with the bumper on.

 

Nope. It's too much work to sell for 500.

I'll work on it.

 

Yeah, I mean the one on the front.

We will have to compare Visa's when things are underway and see whose is hotter. How cheap was that 44 now anyway?

Cruise Moab, Rising Sun 4x4, get'er done.

 

Front Range Don't do spring under.........................

That's the bottom line. I'm ready to call it. 4" over stock front and 4.5" over stock rear.

No way you'll get that low.







It's nice to have one of each. Toyota SA and Dana 44.

 

She's going to the Hammers first. Unless we run Pritchett, Moab has nothing on the hammers.

 

Looks good. Did you change your new rear bumper at all from your original design? Some one-of-a-kind tweaks.

Before the swap, how much room did you have between the body and your TJM with the 1" BL (assuming you had it as far up as possible)? Maybe it's the angle the pic is shot at but that bumper looks awfully close to the body in it's new position.

 

With the 1" BL there was a 1/2" gap. Before that no gap like this. These new mounts are 1" higher.

New rear bumper for me is 100% of what people will get, nothing what so ever different. The final batch 2+ design is pretty much perfect.

 

I love Monster trucks. I never said I would be anywhere as low as you are and that is cool. Your truck is one of a kind, my rig is a dime a dozen.

Moab has the trip to the Hammers beat by being less than half the drive time. You can run whatever you want, the only way my IFS is wheeling again is if I win the lottery or Chris comes out.

There will be lots of people to drool on your truck. There is even another solid axle 44 Runner coming.

 

Thanks. Seeing the pics had me wondering what gap I would have after a BL. I must be bored.

 

HUH?

 

Looks great Steve!

Chris

 

There is another 3rd Gen runner with a 44 coming. It is not stock YJ-62, but it is a swapped truck.

New mounts look good. When are you going to be back on the trail?

 

Nice battle scars. Now I see what you were saying the other day about how bad your TJM is beat.

 

Well, the decision has been made, and I'm sure I'll be harassed about it for years to come. But, with no excuse but my wife doesn't want me to go, is I won't be joining you in the Moab this year, unfortunately. But, it will happen at some point, and I sure wish I could be there this year. It would be fun as hell! Sorry guys,

Chris

 

Almost done I see...

Looking good.
