Been slaving away at this thing to get it ready before Hammer season is over
Finished welding up all of the suspension, installed the flat belly skid, stuck the gas tank in the back.
Filled the Atlas, made a bracket to hang this thing on the engine
Started building an exhaust for it, the stock front pipe and precat interfered with the upper control arm mount so reworked the exhaust a bit and that is solved.
Then hooked up the fuel lines, reworked the powersteering lines so they reachedthe steering gear and fired the little beast up, good to hear it run after 6 months.
Oh yeah somewhere in there the wheelbase went from 94" to 111" and the stock belly height of something like 13" went up to 24"
Makes it easy to work under it and I guess good shade on a hot day in the desert lol
Now it needs the driveshafts, which should be here by the end of the week, a cage, going to start that this weekend, install the cutting brakes and finish all the brake lines.
Then after a break and a deep breath, I will tackle the steering assist ram and drill and tap the steering gear for the assist ram.
Also needs some of the floor welded back in that I cut to fit the Atlas flat, but then that might wait till after I run a few trails with it
