That's a frickin nice truck. Where is he from? seems familiar
 
What my truck wants to be when it grows up.
Justins build
 
I wouldn't doubt if Justin is the same guy, I am pretty sure he came up to Salt Creek with Jake Slaughter and Joe Slaughter and we took him over at a rock face I knew of and he was dominating that thing with that pickup. I remember the trailer as well because He could barely squeeze that thing out of it. That's really cool he won that race.
 
****ed around in the garage last nite. I think i lifted the diff probably 15 times or so.... A couple of the studs are apparently not perfectly positioned. Drilled a few diff holes to 11/32 seems to have alleviated the issue. Axle appears to be straight.
Had to monkey around with the inners and side gear fit, i think it was just dirty or something.
Ended the nite mocking the knuckles for steering stop adjustment.
Plan for tonight is diff glued in, axles, knuckles, spindles. I think steering links possibly too.
I have to swap wheel studs back to stock, that may or may not go to plan.
Had a little setback with shock tabs so I had to reorder, expecting Tuesday. On that note I have some tabs for sale ;)
2.25w x 1.25h x .25thk .50 hole thats .75 from base.

Ran into a little issue. It appears that the spring perches are not properly positioned. We were shooting for 1-1.5 caster. So way too much at 6+ and the pinion angle is low.
