Looks great. I’ve been gardening a decent bit too, it’s relaxing.

All you can do is adjust the alignment cams on the upper arms inwards if they aren’t on heim joints. Other than that it’s all kinda built into the kit. Also check your toe as that can cause camber issues as well.

They did! Victory meal at Burger King! What an amazing weekend. Glad I got to tag along and get outside.

https://store.creality.com/collections/scanners This one was recommended to me by a guy I’ve used for solid modeling help. He said it’s a really good bang for the buck. The raptor/raptor pro ones. They’ve gotten so much cheaper in the last few years.

Oh man, I love oddball cars. My first real project was a 59 rambler American coupe with a 383 stroker smallblock, 400 trans and a 9” Built a janky ass front end using mustangII/pinto parts from the junkyard. Car was a total death trap. Can’t believe my dad let me drive that thing. Those...

I think this is the route I’m going to try. The teeth on the hub are so close together I’m afraid it won’t read right.

That was my first thought and still might do it that way, but it’s a slip yoke into the trans so I’d need to get a thicker ring water jet cut or machined most likely to account for the 3/4” or so of axle plunge to keep teeth in front of the sensor at all times. This might be a situation where...

Anyone have an idea of how close tone ring “teeth” can be to each other, as well as how thick the ring needs to be? I’m planning on putting a tone ring in place of a seal retainer inside the rotor. Since it’s small, and 1:1 ratio vs the ring gear where the ring used to be, I’m ass-u-me’ing it...

Sure hope this goes through all the way. I’m waiting for this to be my daily. Edit: apparently I’m too dumb to know how to resize something and the pic is too big.

One other thing to look at is the inner fender well.. see if there’s marks from the upper arm hitting it. If you beat on these hard enough, the upper misalign/bolt will hit the inner fender well at full bump and that will push the slug through the spindle.

Made this rock funnel thing for my folks. They’re building a house and had to make a giant retaining wall using gabion cages. I thought this thing was big and heavy til I saw the excavator that was filling it up. Pretty cool project though and different from the norm for me.

Finally making some headway up front. Matt has the patience of a saint. I don’t get enough time on truck projects trying to keep up with kit parts and stuff. Anyhoo… I wasn’t happy with up travel with the normal upper arms we use since this kit was intended for trucks with no a/c, so we made...

I’m game. I’m old and slow on a slow bike. Got a 250 rally. You’ll hate it if you don’t do suspension work to it unless the bdr stuff is mellow dirt roads. I’m still not sure if I like this bike or not. It definitely ain’t a desert bike, but I try to treat it like one. Reliability and low...

Posting this for an old customer, fully caged, 347 stroker motor, working 4wd with our race kit up front. Spring under Deaver 62” leafs out back. Roughly 16” travel front 18” rear. He’s asking $27k as it sits or $20k without engine/trans. Some of you may remember this truck, it’s been around a...
