Bezel intentional,

Trac bar worked for 4 yrs on the rig the axles were bought from, it now has Volvo portals.....we'll see.

I don't know, it looks weird with the wheel wells cut off and the remaining back. I'd say either cut the rest of the back off completely or put a tub in the back.

I'm diggin' the OD though

I agree ...I would keep the tub.... but I like it .... give lots of I deas for for mine

peesalot · 06-02-2005, 06:39 AM

don't try and say it was intenional , we all make mistakes.

explain to me how that bar will keep the axle from rolling up ? it has a shackle on the front and no triangulation , won't axle wrap just as easy as if it were not there ?
