[tornadoalleycruiser]

you should have tried out one of marlins new diff flanges with all the different holes in it. I picked up some spares (tcase flanges) when he had em on sale. Noticed he has a new one now for just about any driveshaft part one would have lying around. Your rockin on this build.. Looks great..

Man I love what you have done to this truck ! I can already see folks around these parts, using this thread as a platform for similar builds.

PS; Your snorkle is almost as ugly is mine

You should post a link over in the 45 section now! I am sure even the purist would like what you have accomplished on this truck. Keep up the great work.

I took the day from working for the company and and the wife and did some work on my stuff.

Dual Fuel Filler Necks!

Where did you pick up your fuel filler neck protectors?(Page 80) They make for a clean install!

(How does getting a speeding ticket for 57mph while pulling a trailer in a 65mph zone grab your attention at $380 and 2 points on your driving record sound?)

My snorkle worked Great in Alaska. I wished I would have turned the intake around. D'oh

Im looking for a way to post them. I took over 1,300 pictures but the MUD photo gallery only allows 50 pictures.

The rig did Great. I had a hole in the fuel line and my fuel tank selector valve got debris in it.

A handful of souther friends were there with helping hand even before I knew I needed assistance.

The rig did everything I asked it to.

Here are a few pics.

Epic... the scenery makes your rig look small..

A few I have loaded up on photobucket:

I believe this was your second time through your first water crossing (the trail we landed on first popped us right back out at the highway )

Vent windows were the original plan. I just ran out of time and could not find a reasonably price on the hardware and hinges, etc.

rig looks amazin......

have you counted how many hours or cheddar invested? (don't answer that)

Now that the article is out, we are just waiting for Henry Brimmer to select his pictures for his calendar. I'm not saying any of the ACT rigs or photos are in the calendar but he has first choice.
