yea they are awesome, but a ton of work, lots of little things to do on them that you don't have to do on a truck.
yea they take a ton of money lol. But those little things are almost done on mine so its all good now!
that thing looks awesome! Are you keeping the door bars that way or are you doing something like this?

Common sense isn't so common...
don't have any updates right now. been super busy but now that its summer hopefully I can save up to build the trans which is the next step.
what the fuck is going on with this thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!????????????????? ???????????????????
It is sitting outside, all dusty...haha.
If you can't get it going with bungee cords and duct tape, it's serious.
Dude finish this thing. forget the trans run the stocker for now and take it easy. This sport is all about getting out there and having fun.. I'm over my truck sitting in the driveway barely getting worked on. I work on this thing just about every chance I get now.. Shooting for the cleanup to be its maiden voyage. =]

I agree Gatlan, that th400 can handle some serious abuse stock.
ya I know the tranny would probably be ok stock. But I want to run the slip in the driveshaft and since I'll have the tranny apart to do a fixed yoke I figured I would at least freshen it up. I'm hoping to do some work in the next few weeks like build a bumper and buy some guages.
updates
im fucking dying without updates on this thing. i sure hope the next pics you post up are ones of it driving down the street!!!
If you are waiting for those pictures it might be a while...it looks the same as it did in the previous pictures.

no pics but minor update. cut off current engine cage to rebuild. Didnt like the angle of the coilovers for when I want to put bypasses in eventually. Then I shattered my femur racing mx. Should be back walking in a month or so and then I will be posting some updates of her!
Can't wait to see this thing progressing again.
ya i can't wait either, its been to long! have some new sticks of tubing for it that should finish the engine cage and bumper. And I picked up a 97 f250 7.3 diesel as aDD /tow vehicle
so f'in badass......
