Never mind that rats nest of wires on the driverside under the dash. Thats where my ARB is and I was troubleshooting why it wont build pressure.

BTW- Since I am such a Lemming, I made it look like a King of the Hammers rig!! (Mustard Dog is my Hero!!)
Light bar, rear facing amber, Lowrance GPS, Iroks, etc. Of course, if I cant finish a 2.5 mile race, what makes me think I could finish a 50 mile race! ![]() Thanks for all the comments guys. Rob

the rig looks really good! for some reason i like the light bar. if you ever wanted to or ever have problems, you could make your driveline a lot stronger for not much $$ at all. my suggestion would be run stock 4:10 R+P in the diffs and get a yota dual case set up, with 4:7's in the rear case. then you'll be just as low as you are now but have much stronger diffs and t-case's. ive seen a lot of toyota 5.29's give way with 37's and your running 42's........ so id say its a matter of time.

I hear ya Bobby, but with ARB's I can unlock the diff if its looking bleak. There are guys running rear steer Toy's (some with v-8s) with 42's around here and they are surviving. Its not your shafts I am worried about anyway!

This rig is bad. Saw it at Uwharrie Cross after they broke and wish i could have seen it in action. I did offer up generiously to trade my non-sticky iroks for the stickies to take some strain off that front end.

So is Zukimelt the 10-12 or 24-26 of July? Since I am an East coaster, I try to do the Zu, but if its the 10-12, that is a weekend we can probably do it.....
