waaaaaaiiiitttt....spring creek is this weekend? Hmmmm....
List of things to do for Clayton (in order of importance):
*Pack cooler
*Replace Power Steering Pump and hoses (pull and warranty the pump at O'reilly's)
*Make new rear driveshaft (have all the parts, just need to do it)
*Fab and install an anti-wrap bar for the rear axle (Have all the parts just need to do it)
*Mount and wire 8274 on front
*Tube work, simple roll bars for now
*Begin the body clearancing
*Make sure cooler has enough ice...
Pulled the power steering pump off, it was fooked! Also managed to break the pulley in the process...
Went to Ho'Reilly's, the pump is under warranty, I got new hoses, a belt, and pulley.
Also figured out the zero oil pressure issue, the sender became un-plugged, cleaned the connections and now we have pressure :gigem:
A while ago I had Jimmy pick me up a pro tools bender in Dallas. I ordered the copperhead fab kit and Jones and I put it together.
Yesterday Jones and I started building a Klogger Kage. Knoeller stopped by to assist. Here are some pics. We got the rear "C" tube done. We also got the "B" hoop done. All of the hoops go through the body and tie directly to the frame.
The front, I bent 2 pieces that run from front to back, rather than the traditional hoop. I will put a top bar and dash bar in between them. I don't think this makes a difference in the strength. I could have kicked the bottom of this forward more, but then when I turned it into the frame it would have been right at the radius arm mount, and it does not interfere with the foot room too much. Obviously I still need to notch this and fit it up.
And for all of you jack asses out there, I am going to add more gussets and triangulation :flipoff2:
thanks for ruining our fun
looks good Karl!
Nice!
maybe you can get some ideas from this cage

Got it welded out and the connectors through the back half of the cage. I am going to put some pipe foam on it temporary for Clayton. I still need to gusset and put a few cross bars (like the one in the front)
Xtreme!

So Spring Creek + loose wheel bearings = bad spindle
