:ahhhhh: vote now, bitchezzz :DDR:

So....where's those pics from your trip? :laughing:

f*ckin TONY!

Yep, just ordered mine yesterday! Thanks...I can't wait.

^^^ Hey I thought that car looked familiar. That was the car that was at my work last week. Is that why you posted that pic?

Aaron, you've seen those pics before right? I think there are a few others on my Action Shutter website plus I have more on my computer if you guys are interested. I saw Jerry's truck at the SSSS back in Sept with a different look. Is it the same wrap as then? Black? I'll be sure to get plenty of new good pics of you guys in action on Sunday!

Not that I care much about NASCAR, but where's the pics guys? :ahhhhh:

uhh yeah...you can say that again! :ahhhhh:

YIAH! Yo Aaron I will be out there on Sunday I will stop on by for sure and say hi. I can't wait to check out the new track! :ahhhhh: Good luck, guys!!!

Eddy has the :atc: sickness for sure. :ahhhhh: Congrats! Sweet headlight. I've never seen someone do that on a 70 before. haha

You could tow one of those little 16 or 18 footers with your truck. Anymore than that is too much. I'd be worried about getting stuck though being only 2WD.

I'm happy for ya, Bert. It's gonna be one badass, unique car!

I know nothing :ban-split:

I always love a story with a happy ending.

The big four oh! Anything special plans today? Hope you have a great day bud. Happy birthday, Tim.

There wasn't much bend to them. He was able to straighten those out with no problem.

Hell yeah that is one badass raffle prize. Cleanup should be some good times as usual!

President's weekend some of you might remember me talking about me breaking something on my car. Well here it is. The rear, lower control arm mount cracked and snapped a part of the lower tube on the frame. It wasn't much of a suprise that it happened considering the condition of the dunes that weekend and the fact that we already knew that it was a weak area on these and Hotrails' cars. There is was no bracing from side to side between the mounts and with all the sliding and side to side hammering it was getting that day it broke. Yeah I know you are all very suprised I managed to break a sandrail right? (Mr. R&D driver right here haha) Normally I'd be hesitant to ever post up pics of my damaged rail on the internet, but considering how well of a job Tim (limodriver) did I am very confidant and happy with it. It is way stronger than before and a small problem area has been fixed correctly. Thanks again Tim. You do great work. Anyone needing their stuff fixed up or small fab work done give this guy a shout! BEFORE: cracked at the front and 2 dunes later it pulled out then after ratchet strapping it together, I limped it back to camp and it finished itself off. AFTER Tim completely changed out the lower tube with .120 wall chromolly. Then he sleeved & plug welded the inside of the tube with 1 1/4" .120 wall tubing. It is sleeved from where it meets up with the frame at the front and goes all the way back to the bend at the rear. So now the tubing that the rear control arms mount to is essentially 1/4" thick. Then a cross bar was added from side to side to handle the side to side load. Now it's time for some paint. Paging Ken's Colors!

Not a problem at all.

Hey Andre, I checked on the intermediate shaft. The part # that was installed on your truck was an updated part at the time, but they have since revised and improved them a couple times since then. There wouldn't be any warranty or coverage on the one you had put in since it was quite some time ago and the age of the truck. A new one costs about 104 bucks. I think that is list price though. Let me know if you end up needing a new one. I can save you a few bucks.

which photos?

cheesetube. I'm changing the name of the subforum right now.

hahaa. I don't think he was though. Just about every car and truck got kicked like that off those little bumps they called jumps. Thanks man. I have alot of fun shooting them. Yeah too bad we didnt get a chance to meet up, but there's always next time.
