After the roll, one of my wheels isn't true anymore. Does anyone know any shops that are able to fix that? It's about 1/8"-1/4" of wobble on the side of the rim as it spins. they dont sell these rims anymore so I'd really like to fix it.

kudos to you for doing the 4WD suspension design with a motor swap. Shits not easy. Looks like your making all the right choices so far

That 3D printed dome light is cool.

Your fab work is so clean. The rear mounts turned out great

I'm just about done getting my lights mounted again. I'm reusing the old hoop Slowly getting my tools set up

I'm all set up in my new garage. I'm so happy to have the garage where i live. I'm able to work on things throughout the week This thing got beat up during the roll but i was able to hammer it back into shape my fixture to back the inside the final product

yeahhhh! that feels like so long ago

but she is back and alive! I did a shakedown run at Gorman on Sunday. It was the first time the truck has seen the dirt in 9 years. Damn, it didn't feel like that long. Overall the truck did awesome. The front suspension is killer. It soaked everything up with zero adjustment. The motor ran...

I got the brakes figured out. I think anyway. It ended up being a combination of a small air bubble in the lines and slightly changing the pedal geometry. Due to the hodge podge of random components thrown together, it just didnt work perfect the first try. This is the final pedal components...

Here's a pic of the jack from below. It's a little below the frame but it should be safe Got the fenders completely fixed and then put bedliner on the insides And got the windshield in. I put tint on the inside to cover from being able to see inside the dash...no one needs to see that mess...

I took a hiatus from the truck and DR to get married and go to Australia. Happy to be back and working on the truck. I'm super close to being ready for the first trip. I just need to sort out my brakes before I'm ready to do some more test drives. I had bought these disc brakes used off RDC. I...

I decided to mount the front clip before getting the truck driveable because it makes it so much more fun to look at haha. I started a basic metal frame and it hinges off the stock hinges perfectly. Pretty stoke how that worked out. I'll probably end up doing some kind of baller gas shock to...

I got the trans lines plumbed. I decided to skip the shroud for now and see what the temps look like. I put the temp sender on the trans outlet line I got enough of the bodywork done to get the roof skin on. I just need to weld at the pillars I found a 2nd mcneil conversion clip online...

The driveshaft is finally finished. what a headache that was. I got the cage painted And she's officially off the jack stands! I'm shooting to take her around the block next weekend and then the roof should be finished shortly after. Xxxx Xxxx Thanks everyone. It felt great! Although...

this is my reference (https://www.4crawler.com/4x4/CheapTricks/Driveline-101.shtml) My trans position and angle are set on the front and my pinion position and angle are set in the rear. I can really only set the height of my carrier bearing. I'm not sure how tolerant these angles are but I...
