Braden Posted October 23, 2009 Report Share Posted October 23, 2009 The problem First solution, typical yota bag setup using 2500s. Lift=suxors What would really be the third solution i guess, RE7 stuffed under a mini. Lift=Muy Bueno! Difference from front. Keep in mind the RE7 is probably making the contitech even lower than it should be cause there is such a difference in lift. and this.....this is quite nice....whered that come from... Anyways, back to the sexy truck, you guys dont care about amazingly hot chicks do ya? damn some halfway decent mig welds on a frame, nice man keep it up Quote Link to comment
Braden Posted October 23, 2009 Report Share Posted October 23, 2009 on those vertical welds try and go uphill instead of downhill, it allows the pool to penetrate better, how about some penetration on that chik lmao Quote Link to comment

Slammy Posted November 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2009 Small update, been finishing up little details and moving stuff around. Had a PS hose made to adapt the yota box to the ford PS pump, bent a return line fitting, reinforced the upper control arms and did final assembly on the front suspension. Quote Link to comment

Slammy Posted December 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 Work in progress but you get the idea. No 4 link or bags yet and that square tube is just a temp brace. Quote Link to comment

Slammy Posted January 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Link bars are finally done after having my drill chuck explode on me making finishing my jig a mess. Quote Link to comment
Slammy Posted January 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Just trying to stay active on the site! Talked the owner of the datsun project and im pretty sure it will be coming back once this ranger leaves. Upper bars, nothing special. Powerwashed the axle, thing was NASTY! Axle brackets welded on Showing the angled lower bars in place had to notch the frame for the bars to clear since the 4 link axle bracket isnt very long. Looked at not using the brackets but we decided to go ahead with it. Quote Link to comment
