Ya I no. In my head I wanted to make the truck 4wd down the road but im kinda over that idea. I think equal length will work out better for ground clearance and being mostly a dedicated race truck. I was plowing the 2 track everywhere this weekend

Ya I was looking at your wiy equal length beams and mounts to save the time from having to design and cut them out myself. Just cut my beams apart and use the ends

Finally got the truck out to a race. Was having a blast and it was working pretty good. Right up until I smoked a big rock with the driver side beam halfway through the first lap. Pulled into the pits and realized we had 2" of up travel before the beam was smashing into the passenger side mount...

I think the slate makes a lot of sense for people in big city's that need a little truck. I dig the concept of it. I bought a xl maverick at the beginning of the year because I needed a new daily that got good MPGs and could still do parts runs. Can't beat 30+mpg and still fit 5 35s in the back

Golf cart chop

Did

So far seams good. If I need I can move my batteries from the extra cab to next to the spare tires for more weight.

Traded my F31s for a set of G50s. The extra swing rate and arch is a huge improvement. Went from 8" to 11" of up travel. Need to take the truck out testing again to see if it needs a revalve. Also pulling the truck apart in te He snow sucked

Went out to do alittle more shock tuning after changing some valving. Truck feels more planted and its faster through bigger bumps. Still getting used to how the truck reacts and drive but it's fun and getting faster.

Luckily the truck doesn't want to buck right now but I get into the bump stops pretty often

I'm gana revalve them Friday and go out this weekend again. I'd also like to get the pack re arched to get alittle more bump travel too. I'm at 8.5-9" I'd like to be closer to 10.5"

It's all painted. Turned out pretty ok. Now on to trying to get it dialed in and buy everything else I need in an attempt to make the first MORE race of the year.

Got tired of everything not matching. Figured a garage built truck needed a driveway rattle can paint job. I'll finish the front clip tomorrow

Put 250 or so miles on the truck the last 2 weeks. Only casualties was a blow shock seal and power steering pump is about to leave the chat. Truck got fast with some bypass adjustments but need to send the leafs out to add a few leafs as the F31s are a tad to soft.

I've got the 22 gallon one in one of my trucks. No complaints so far
