[iamsparticus]

Why not run the Detroit in the rear, and the arb up front? It would definatly be better for turning.

I like my detroit in the rear. Road manners are not as bad as i thought they would be.

I think it will be better for driving on road. Plus rear houseing was already setup for it. I might twin stick it then I can have 2 low to turn.

 

[iamsparticus]

Detriot in the rear is the way to go auto lockers are not bad at all on the road and where you dont have hydro steering its nice to be able to unlock the front in turns on slick rock and stuff, when you going to hav it wheelable brandon?

 

[Marsh99]

it depends I need a some parts but I need to sale my blue truck first

 

[iamsparticus]

[SiRed91]

sweet start on a runner, always had a soft spot for these

 

[Marsh99]

I picked up another set of rear springs to build my ruf pack for the front.

 

[Marsh99]

So today was not to effective I put on the waggys and thought that they ran to flat and would break when flexed. These are the 5 pack rears.

Decided I might as well run the tryed and tested chevys so I went to the junk yard and pulled a set, and spent the day cleaning them up. Thanks again to Hybrid racing for some bushingss for them, so I didn't have to wait for some in the mail.

I had to build front new hangers aswell luckily I did this on my last build so they went fast. I used 2.5 x 2.5 x 2.5 10in long cut and drilled the holes 1inch in and 1.5 inches from the top.

I did get my cb in the mail.. I went with a uniden I found on amazon on sale.
