No, I had that, too. But, I just clicked on the little icons, and got to see the actual size pictures, so everything is well. So River Beast, when is that new site going to be up and running?

Todd, I can't get it to load. Every time I click on it, it just flickers the screen and will not load. I have to hit ctrl+alt+del just to make it stop.

I have to talk to you and Kim. Can you give me a call at work. It is about Nikol and the baby. Nothing horrible. Call me at X2861 Thanks.

Looks great! As I went through your pictures on your old sight, I found it interesting to note that a lot of what you have done parallels my own truck. I have not finished my SOA yet, and I am not running a large of tire so I will not need near as much lift. The bigger tires would be nice but frame height restrictions make even 38's out of the question if one does not want to be hasseled by the local law.

I was wondering what you were running for gears with the big swampers and what were your thoughts on running W/T axles as I can go either way when I do my SOA.

<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

I have put 4.89 gears and Detroit Locker in in the rear axle... I have the same parts for the front, just not installed yet.

The W/T axles are 4" wider and I don't think there is a difference in spring perch width... so you may be ok.... not sure on the perched though.


Mike (FulMetal),

HEHEHE.... nerfs are being made.... they will be 4" tubes...they will both double as ir tanks...

I am pushin' the issue on the Safari run.... no front shaft yet and maybe swapping out the QT for a D18/20.... we'll see.

Thanks again everybody...

[bigjeepguy]

I love it, that is what a wag should look like, way way cool man, I was shooting for 38's on my truck, but my front bumper can only be 29 inches off the ground, so I probably will stick to 36's if I get to keep my license(the diesel strikes again...cops don't like dieselsw/ no muffler, they draw too much attention) so I want to keep it all legal, I don't even want a question of legality. I'll try to post some pics after the body is done.

Thanks for the info, I have just finished my model 20 change over and love it. My Q/T did me well, but, with my set up the low range was too much gear, the 2 to 1 suits my rig better. Besides I now can "2 wheel" some of the guys at the mud pit, where before when you hit the gas it just took off.

I really like the paint job. I want to see this truck in one of my 4x4 mags. I hope you enter as a readers rig, maybe they'll do a feature on your truck. I'd love to see what it can do off road. Keep up the good work.
