cage work done on 800b... build still in progress.

i must say. i love some of the scout rigs in here. sweet ass build-ups and just plain restores.

i'll be writing-up my rebuild in the next couple weeks to a month to a year or so :p.

info on my ride:
67 scout 800

as of 06; 266, t-18, d20(twin stick), d27/30, d44(10 spline), 4.88r&p, soa w/ stock 7 and 9 pack leaves, *******(6" welded in)pitman arm, full hard top(all good glass), cj tire carrier, 31 bald at, stock seats, ******* gas pedal rod set-up.

as of late 06; 345, welded d44(10 spline), stored hard top, 33 ltbs, chevytruck seats, chevy gas pedal, cj throttle cable, H.F. 9k winch(hidden in grill), 500 hellas.

as of late 08; t-19(wide), waggy d44(detroit), semi-floating d60(welded), 5.89r&p, yj 3" bds springs, soa, ford 2wd 1-ton power steering, cross-over steering linkages, full roll cage, 3rd seat for daughter, cj custom gas tank.

maybe get it painted from the dull gray to a better eye catcher.

i'll be getting a supporter account so i can post pics and help maintain pirate. :p thxs ryan

1st pic is from the buy :p 1,200$

it ran but didnt have a gas pedal or a air filter.

2nd and 3rd pic are from 06 after the 345cuin transplant and winch install w/ 33 ltbs. these are from a home made trail in Westbranch, Michigan on private property. they have it annually called the PIG GIG.

Speak for yourself, If you search before asking questions or at least acknowledge or thank for the answers to your unsearched questions...you will be fine. Fullthrottle will be just fine, he posted pics quickly ....as long as he puts a roll bar in we will be happy....

i would love to hit up moab. but i must get the 07 upgrades done 1st. yes, includeing a roll cage. i'm pretty brave but not totally stupid. :D

this years pot ol gold (taxes) is going to the house (heating/cooling and water heater). my furnance is a coal modified to nat. gas system. it's still 1947! hahaha. then the scout parts. we'll see on how good i can get a cage here in mi. none does em, so it's gonna be called custom and not cheap!. :p

Been there done it that way :) The weather rocks that time of year. I love the heat, the Scout doesn't all the time though. Pritchet being harder that way?

Coyote Trail would be fun to run :)

I'll try it make it. Work has been hectic it seems. That and I'm doing another tear down after my next trip.

pretty much fell off the earth....:homer:

finally got a cage and rock sliders along w/ body work done.

cage was done at www.Unlimitedoffroadcenters.com of fenton, mi.
Thxs Adam Justin and Jim.

body work was done by a friend Dave...very :smokin: guy

found a 392 ih v8 instead of the 345 rebuild... and still undecided on gears...5.89s (what the rear 35 spline semi-floater has now or something higher like 5.38 for strength. (d44 front/d60 rear))

last pic is a test fit on the 36" tsl swampers. i need to swap out suspension and axles still. but its a good fitment. :grinpimp:

:p so hi again :flipoff2:
