    and i realize now after driving 5 miles that 4 38" tsl's will take any problem you have and amplify them dramatically ie i new my ball joints were week and my tre's was loose and this thing was all over the road

    i am not driving it till after the make over ie sbc and tons

    but it looks sweet

    A couple new ball joints and TREs and it should be good, right? What is your caster angle?
    5° to 7° positive should keep it tracking straight.

    that is my baby and soon to be dd as soon i can keep it running longer than 12 hrs i get it to run and the next day it won't start grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

    or i will install a d60 and replace every thing with new i had issues with the d44 and 33's staying fixed (axle shafts was an issue) so go big or stay home

    caster was set to 5° with the d44 i am going to run 7° or 8° with the 60 so i can adjust the pinion angle a bit depending on final height


    this will becom a build thread of sorts just mainly picture up dates

    No problem with this becoming a build thread... but we're going to move it to the "Builds and Fabricators" forum...
