Awesome build mate. Had a look, but couldn't find it. What size are the new rims and krawlers?

77TPIFJ · Mar 9, 2011

thanks... rims are 17x8.5 and the krawlers are 37"

Coming along nicely. My brother just bought the same rims. He loves them too. Love your engine, I am just finishing up my TPI install tonight.

Nice rig!

My quarter panels are so rusted, I plan to make similar panels for mine.

they were pretty easy to make. made a template for the shape and i had a old rim(or was it a 35lb weight from the bench) laying around that tack welded then heated to bend around it .. good luck

so i was going to link the front but decided not to. got a dana 60 that i am just gonna do a leaf spring on. i gave alcan a call they are gonna send me a quote .

Heres the question what other springs are out there with good performance?
running 37s wanna keep it low. So no lift right?
i intend on driving it some places but not a DD.

thanks for any input :beer:

air shock or coil over mounts

yea i really haven't decided if i am going c/o or air shock yet ... but this is how they will mount.. it's kinda a cool when you can go to a friends shop and have him burn these for you real quick. ( i paid him of course)
