Some light flex testing. Nothing hits or binds but I ran out of jack.

Well shit...... My Turbo 400 trans is cracked. Time to upgrade to 4L80. Anyone have a core for a 4X4?

Bummer.

I'll post up on the gram.

Sent a message to you. Got one i cans sell

New built trans is back. New HD case, Heavy duty clutches, HD springs, Reverse manual VB, 4L80 HD drum and all the other tricks we had. I love having my boys in the shop to lend a hand. At BFR we get it done. Haha

I put in a new shifter with a party gate for reverse. I used a TMR shifter mount and made it into a console. Can anyone pause KOH or postpone it for an extra week?

 

[BFR_Built 🇺🇸]

I put some wire in her today. After KOH I will pull the dash, finish weld everything and blend it all. Paint and she will look like a pro amateur did it. Haha

I may start an OnlyFab account. #squirtgungang

I'm a big fan dude. It came out clean.

So why only 1 cup holder? You may have to get one of these for the passenger - https://www.harborfreight.com/magne...bpzLgtoaesplKui7doVHOduO47ae2H_QaAgraEALw_wcB

The cup holder is for the passenger. The driver has a camelback in the seat. Haha, I had to choose 2 cup holders or tripple sticks for my tcase and underdrive.

New trans cross member and belly pan build. I am using some 2” .120 square tube notched into the link mounts. Then I will do an overlay play front the link mount to the chassis.

So is the box tubing used to make it easier to mount your under belly skids?

Yea, I also like the gap it leaves to weld up.

Busy week.

 

[BFR_Built 🇺🇸]

Todays action. I added some tubes to my sliders. My plan to tube them out and then add some 1/2” UHMW.




I am working on some gussets for the pivots. My goal is to make this whole subframe style skid to get flat belly.




I also started designing some new removable fender mounts. These will be cut out of steel with a wire mesh inlay.

Watching KOH while making parts. That is a fun weekend in my world. The heater under the welding table is a rad deal. Just be careful, the table gets hot.






When I lowered the hood and grill shell I created a large fender gap at the firewall. I chopped that up and made some filler panels.

 

[BFR_Built 🇺🇸]

I had to take a break and build this stand for my mill. Stoked to have this tool working.

 

[theycallmeWALLY]

That heater under the work bench is legit...

 

[BFR_Built 🇺🇸]

The heated work bench is the best. Just have to pay attention because it gets HAF!!! Mill is up on the stand. Stoked to have this tool even though it’s old and used. After some elbow grease it will be perfect for me.

I'm shopping around for one right now.. I need to replace my shit home depot drill press that can't seem to ever drill straight.
