Are you sure its it not gonna be a “circus high show truck”…:flipoff2:

On the other hand, nice welds and all so far
:D

Nice front lift blocks :D:D:D

I've always wanted to see someone use those on a rig, nice

you guys in Oklahoma just aint right!!!! :flipoff2:

The 4 link was high dolla.

Chromoly Tube W/ Choromoly rod end!

All the steel is .250 Wall
and no show,
Big Block
TB400
Welded f & R Diff
Milemarker Lockout Hubs
Semi Air Bags go from 9" to 27"
OBA York
12volt hyd pmp for rear
18" Travel
I wouldnt have started this if i knew was going to be this muck work! Cause i have done it alone, being 21 Y.O. Takes away from party time!!!

What is that thing, a bridge abutment??????:beer: :flipoff2: :D

Personally, I think it is going to be too light for any SERIOUS mud action. You might want to consider a couple of pilons welded to the bumpers for traction. Seriously.





































:flipoff2:

Seriously Too light even with all of that steel 1/4" wall'd

By the looks of that subframe it will be tall enough for 66" tires. 31" wide tires look cool but they suck in the mud. Probably wont sink far though:D :D :D When do you think you will have it done? Hopefully I will see ya at the bogs this summer!!
(and even though they suck in the mud I would run'em if I could afford em!!):rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Ya, but who wants to be right. :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer:

I recieved a Miller 210 For X-Mas and I think I have bout' Wore it out!!!! That pic was as of today i should be done in a few weeks!! I built it so when totally aired down it sets on bump stops. Air up 9" for ride height, then air up 9" more till strap hits!
Aired up i could clear 66" but would have to be 0"offset to not hit 4link while turning. My next investment is gotta be a Plasma Cutter which I have found a great deal on (Cut 1" for $1725)


Later:rasta:

:D :D Sweet, check out my website for info on the local bogs. There is one this coming weekend in Alex. You should be done by the next one after that on May 25th(?). Give us some more pics. Email me some too. I would like to add them to my site. :beer: :beer: Stop by the bog this weekend and I ll give ya a beer!! or two, or three!! You did say you were 21 right? :rolleyes:

how is your 4 link going to control lateral axle movement?

Maybe you cant tell, but its an "Under Construction" picture. He obviously going to add a panrod bar. Or do you wonder how it will go without driveshafts too?:flipoff2: :flipoff2: LOL

yeah but i didnt see any brackets for it and since he has all of his other links in place i figured that those WERE all of his links :flipoff2:

from the what i see it could have a diagonal link that you wouldnt see, just like drag 4 links.
only way to get any length is diagonal
fawk is that gonna be heavy

:eek: OH MY GOD :eek:

I dont know were to start :rolleyes:

Think you could pick up some used monster truck tires?

I once saw an s10 with tractor tires..Dont ask..2wd, tractors were in the rear only.

Paint that thing up nice and people wont know what to think.

You will have to get a "wide load" sign to tow that thing down the road..I dont think you will have her street legal:D

does that thing double as a bomb shelter:eek: That is some beefy looking work, great welds!:beer:

Just got in i got the complete rear suspension out of it tonight.
Including fuel tank (Afrade to weld around it!!!)
The suspension is a 8" superlift Lockers front&Rear Its going in a 87 2wd Using all the spring hangers that came off the blazer!
Yesterday I bought a NP203 w/ Shifter, a new Muncie PTO, shift cable, TC crossmember, Rear Driveline all for $250 (Did I steal it?)


Later:rasta:

In trying to figure out that blazer, Did he just lower the spring perches down? and why does it sit level with the back tire higher

:eek: I like :D

did this thing ever get finished

Wow, wonderful engineering.

I think I need to stop trying to engineer anything and just start using .5 wall tubing.

holy crap

that is fawkin huge :eek:

in keeping with his theory on bigger is stronger, is that like 1" plate holding the caliper on :eek:
looks cool, but is it some heavy chit.
does it go alright?it would need serious HP to get it going.

Yeah... But what's the A/S percentage? :flipoff2:

I think his windshield banner had something to do with the logic behind the rig :flipoff2:

If you don't mind, what's the PN on the semi bags you're using?
Chris

LWB would love that thing!!!! :flipoff2:





























Sorry had to dude! :flipoff2:

That is the biggest pi... wait, be nice
That's the ugl.... wait, be nice
What a pile o.... wait, be nice
Holy shit, what were you thi...wait, be nice













"""take deep breath"""
Ok, I'm better now.
Looks good.:flipoff2:

Interesting rig, very old school. Nothin' wrong with retro. Me being a comp guy, I would have liked to have seen it lower and with tires a little narrower (like 48" tall & 11" wide). And I woulda lost the Rockwells in favor of a 60/14-bolt setup. But, a good comp machine does not always make a good play machine. And this looks to be a good play machine :)

Exactly. Unless he's got something seriously insane under the hood, the odds of him breaking anything on a run are ~ 15% (5% dumb luck, 10% Mr. Murphy)

Go out, Play hard, Drive home. Repeat as needed.

It ain't cheap, light, or elegant, but it's sure as hell servicable and fun.
