We are in with the Explorer we currently finishing up. Race truck is beat and still needs to fix it from the roll over. I will let you know on the passes etc. Pretty stoked for this. I enjoy looking at the trucks that were built from production vehicle over the TTs.
Some trans and fuel plumbing mounts for a few of the trucks we are working on. There are a few different combos here.
-8 and -8 (2 inch tube) (1.75 tube)
-8 and -10 (2 inch tube)
Some cast welding. Not may favorite, but getting it done. We preheated it and cleaned it a stainless brush to start. This turbo 400 is a friends buddies. I guess the wrong fitting caused the port to Crack when he started to tighten it down. I will be building it up and re tapping the hole...
Steering box parts being machined to.finish the steering box mount and pitman arm coupler. We had our buddy minworx in AZ build us a box for thos build. Big bore saginaw box off a 90 4x4 suburban. This is the same box we run on our race truck with no issues.
Some progress picture of the chassis coming together and the start of the trailing arms. Also some reverse engineering of the cam urg housing so I could design the link pockets.
Thanks! Trying to catch this thread up. We are just about ready to blast the chassis and paint before the cab gets final fitment. Then we can finish paneling it in.
We will be running a 4 inch camburg housing with our "TT" front and rear hubs. The front shock crossmember is all finished up. Time to move to the next step of the cage.

We gutted the cab as much as possible before pulling it up on the table. It was a little intresting getting the cab up on the table. I used our small 4500 lb winch to pull it up on the table. Took some time but we got it done. Once on the table we were able to start positioning it on the y frame.
As we spoke the other day we would love to bring a truck out to the event. I like the idea of the build thread. I need to update the one on the "truck" we would be bringing if it made the cut. We could help with the donations as well.
Up for sale is our cnc plasma table. This is a 4' by 8' plasma table. It is completely operational and all you will need to do is add you plasma. It has tourch height control and works great. I just recently updated the computer that runs the table. New computer has an ssd. Operating software is...
