looking for a few things

anyone have good calipers and disc's for mini trucks laying around? i think that is all for the time being.

Check Sean's thread and call Jason Litsky (sp) he has quite the collection of minitruck stuff and is a super nice guy.. Smukster posted his contact info...

im going to be pulling the stock calipers and rotors off the 85 i just bought to put vented rotors on, i know the brakes work, but i havent pulled the wheels yet so i dont know what condition everything is in

pretty much as long at works for the time being i am fine with that. to get my sami back from jersey i am gonna need this stuff cause i don't know if i trust the junk thats on it.

most likely i will be flat towing it back, everything spins and would probably be ok to tow it but i dunno if i trust it.

as soon as i get a chance to pull the truck into the shop i'll let ya know what the brakes look like

as long as they work that is all that matters to me, the point of this build is to do a little upgrading till i can link it next winter. so far i only have $96.54 wrapped up into it.

both axles are set in place, just waiting for bushings for the yota springs to show up.

the cage is getting started tonight.

i wish i could say that about mine...even if i move the decimal point i'd still be way off;p

any pictures of the build so far??

 

[Mike at Rausch Creek]

all i have is pics from early yesterday....these are at 86.5 inch wheelbase and 36's. nothing too exciting, tomorrows pics should be alot better.

at this point i am trying to keep it full body. my plan is if my tires don't stick out past the body i will put wheel spacers on to make it wider. won't it be cool to have nascar style tire marks on the body?

whacha lookin' at for final wheelbase?

Looks great! How are you suspending the toy axles?

 

[Mike at Rausch Creek]

thanks Jeff, we are not sure what the wheelbase is at this point in time, i am gonna run my sami rear springs up front, and a set of toy rear springs in the rear(just waiting on bushings to come in). probably wont be to big of a stretch at this point.

next winter i plan on doing a 4 link rear and 3 link with panhard in the front. 100" wheelbase then.

does anyone have any M12x1.5 Mag nuts? i need at least 20 of them ASAP.
