Thanks! It's nice to see people react that way instead of hate! Like I said before, hot rodding is about making your car perform the best it can with the parts available! But I can also understand and appreciate a build that's all original. All depends on your end goal.

Ahh I used my same center section on the S-60 but it's a suretrac style locker

Ah thanks! I guess I had that backwards!

Wowzer! That shop is wild! And the crane! But the truck is beautiful!! That going to be daily get around rig? I love the blue wheel accent.

Thats good to hear Rich! I have one of those laying around already. Good to know it can take the power! I'd probably do that then instead of a 9" lol. I was told the reason they're so strong from the guy who did my gearing is because the pinion has SO much support the way the center section is...

Agreed. I would 100% go 8.8 if it would take it since every single rusted explorer up here has them with disk brakes and 3.73 or 4.10 gears for like $100 to $200

I had the same concern coming from the offroad world with the tabs like that and being so tall, but Bill said he's never had an issue with them. I will say I have given the car its fair share of hardships and they've never been an issue! Now, if you were to put a camera on the rear frame and...

Figured it was time for an update, since I was just busting a buddies balls about an update! I've been working on building a garage over the summer and still through the winter so that's where most of my focus has been, but the car has seen and is scheduled for a few updates! I'm going to...

Just coming to poke the bear! How's the progress going!?

Ahhh yes. I know all about cutting the virgin sheet metal for the intercooler piping. It was terrifying haha, but at least I kept the inner fenders and just did a couple holes for the pipes and air filter tubing. Man that setup sure looks nice! Can't wait to see it sitting in the car!

Updates!?

Yeesh! I guess I'll just keep putting it in 1st gear for now lmao expensive!

Ahhh that should help being on that part of the firewall! Yeah I did. Can you send me a link to the electric ebrake kit he got!? That would be great haha.

Ha awesome! I've never been to SEMA! Its a ways from Vermont haha. Thats awesome that the 17s did the trick! lmao I'm also glad the build thread could be of help some how! Definitely go with the Malwood under dash hydraulic master! Its 100% a pain in the *** and without modification of the stock...

Ah you'll do it one day! Though being in WA rocky mountain race week may be a better option! haha thats much closer! I'd love to do that one one day as well. ALSO, I'm surprised you recognized the car well enough from the live streams to know it was the same car here!
