Wish I could, but that's a little too far of a drive, especially on a weekend. Would be cool though.

Howz it goin on your caddy conversion?

I am only 20 minutes from there, how far in do you think I would make in my Infiniti? :) (Scout is in Colorado :( )

Hey ChiScouter, wanna take me with you? What time are you looking at being down there?

Hey guys, Caddy conversion is going well, but slow. I got hung up on a design for my rear crossmember, and then once I started welding it together my 15 month old Lincoln power mig 255 shit on me. Will be one week for repair under warranty on faulty drive roller design. I was most worried about driveline angles, but it will be ok with a 17 inch rear driveshaft. I may not even need a CV on it. The 241 transfer case will be clocked straight out and ground clearance will not be bad. I hope to be done enough to drive it to Nats in Ohio.

If I go to badlands I will get as far as my Honda will take me and then hoof it the rest of the way if I can't get anyone from Chicago with a transfer case to go.
