The Patrol - Phase II

[redcagepatrol]

Why don't you just cut the old fenders out and run some sheet metal to the tube?

It will be something like that when it's all done

Yes the rear steer is the problem. I think you could make the uppers straight though and be fine. I figure might as well do both. It would leave more space for exhaust and such with straight uppers.

[redcagepatrol]

Food for thought. Don't air shocks and the fancy 9 housing also break the "cheap rule"? Are super duper titanium alloy links super expensive?

Also - my other option was starting from a tube chassis... So this route is MUCH cheaper than that...

Not to mention the hospital bills you'd save after all your friends get done kicking you in the nuts for putting a 22re in a tube chassis

Watch it, we aren't done trying for another baby....wait till I give the thumbs up j/k, please don't disfigure him, I think he's handsome

exactly - if I purchased a tube chassis - I'd be obligated to getting a 6.0 or better Gen III engine (has to be better than Lynda's) - and if I went to the V8 I would have to change the front axle, tranny, and t-case....

And then your looking at over $30,000 - so, cheap is a relative term

I don't see why it has to better than mine, you can't even handle the power mine put's out. I'm going to start calling you Roller Scotts

Don't know what women you have been hanging around...

[Busa]

I am not going to be one up one the wife's Scrambler when i get it done. Have not make a tread yet, there is not much to look at.

[Graystroke]

You'd have to study up on suspension performance - I can't explain it all right here. I can tell you that haveing lower links parallel to the frame SUCKS donky balls and gives you terrible rear steer. That's how I had it built the first time...

if you make the lowers really long wouldn't that negate a lot of the rear steer? longer ones would increase the radius of the swing.

rear steer is where it's at

[davido]

that thing looked sweet when it was new


now it looks sad

I thought the same thing until... holy ****, Scott was 15 just 6 years ago? (pic 3)


Should be cool. Maybe I'll follow suit.





Nah. But maybe I WILL mount my 5 year old shocks.

Cyclone Scott is better.
