Good thing I have the new corner guards because this thing looks like a$$ now!
Anyone got any chevy 52"s so I can push that rear axle back to match the new rear body?
looks good, but why not paint it the same color as the rest of the body?
this is stage one, the tube that goes from the stinger/front fenders/rocker guards will be spliced into and continued into rear fenders and tie into the rear cage and bumper to make a seamless look.
ide still color match it
I wasn't aware that having a seamless paint job was a requirement in TAMOR?:flipoff2:
Does that mean i have to paint my hood?
no one said seamless, it just looks like the back half is censoredQuote:

What ram do I need to run for hydro assist? Chevy dana 44 with cj7 box and wagoneer steering arm.
6" or 8" throw?
1.5", 1.75", or 2" bore?
I was thinking I needed the 8"x1.75", thoughts?
That's what she said.
just call psc and they will tell you what you need even if you dont buy form them
I got bored studying and messed around in Paint for a while. Front and Rear axle moved before and after.
I decided on the future wheelbase.
Stock in 93.4"
Front, 1/2" stretch from rear cj springs, 1" stretch from perch/plate-1.5" front stretch
Rear, 3 7/16" stretch from chevy 52" springs, 1" stretch from perch/plate-4.4375" rear stretch
Total WB=99.3375", Pretty limited to that length without comp-cutting or going full hydro steering.
Now, if I was only around to work on it.
Tentative plan for the rear stretch crossmember/bumper
Constructed of 2x4x1/4" box, spring mounts, and recovery points are 1/4", the frame tie-ins and body mounts are 3/16"
