Nice truck Ross. Thank you for answering my question about whether you can run an Orion behind an SM420 and a Warden plate adapter.Gotta call Mudrak.
Orion was the best mod ever. I hardly ever use granny low now.... I even re-installed it after my 420 died. Just had to grind a little on the "new" 420 case at the rib.
Ross, I for one love the ladder. I use my 5 gallon toilet as a step for access to the fridge. The fridge is the best add I have made. Alomst to the point of not needing an extra cooler. It takes a few years to learn how to pack and use the fridge effectivley.
i guess that means your 40 is out, huh?!
and so's mine.
ouch! that hurts man. the 40 will be done by next years Swap Meet. the 45 will be done before the end of this year.
seriously though, ross' truck is one of my favorites. the odd sounds it makes going down the trail have to be heard to be believed.

Nick - I've fixed most of those sounds. Seriously. I installed the two radiator props, and it virtually eliminated those noises.

What about the old Chev next to your 40
Nice 40 Ross
The 57? It may be for sale soon... 210 with factory v8. But the 283 has been replaced with a 327.
Your dad still work wonders on old chebbies?
Very nice, definitely a classic with all the goodies to match. More jealous over how many times it's been on the Rubicon!
I have the same pitman arm (forget who in Kali makes it) - and am having problems with it hitting the spring - low profile SR. Does yours clear at full compression? Thinking of reindexing and shortening the drag link - but think that's a no no?
Pig rear axles? Keep hearing that - what are they - stonger than Poly's???

I think Pig axles and Poly's are essentially the same thing. Chromoly for sure.
The Pitman arm is from Mudrak. I haven't had problems with the arm hitting the spring, but I am having issues with the TRE hitting the U Bolt plate. Just noticed that one.

I think your right some people have forgotten how well the "classic" cruiser wheels 4 links and danas are sweet but only needed by 1% to get where they want to go Thanks for sharing

Really great rig. Like the bumpers a lot.
How long do you suppose you've got into waiting on work being done and
the amount of time you put in yourself?
