Well now things are starting to move, and actual fabrication is beginning.

Yesterday I started by putting the Jig back together, then assembling the motor, tranny, and t-case and mounting them to the jig.


Today I got a few new parts, first the cutting brake handles. Dustin Webster had these leftover from one of the competition buggys and didn't need them, so I'll be using them in my rig.


and here are all of my suspension joints and some of the link mounts. The joints are Polyperformances version of the RE joint. Same dimensions and design, but the washer is a bit thicker and they use a different style bushing. This will be the first time I've used these so I'll let you know how they compare to the original RE joint. The link mounts are also from Polyperformance and are the perfect thing for anyone building their own link setup. They are laser cut and formed to fit the RE style joint and come in 0, 5 and 10 degree offsets. At $15 a piece they are totally worth the cost in time savings alone.


I started off today by building these. Thats all my lower links, built out of 1.5"x.250 wall DOM sleeved with 1.75x.120 wall DOM. They should be able to take just about anything I can do to em.


To finish off the night I got out the torch and started cutting all the brackets off my axles and grinding them smooth. Unfortunately the oxygen ran out before I could finish the rear end, so I'll have to do that tomorrow.


Tomorrow I've got 200' of tubing arriving, so I'll be able to start bending. I'm also working on something new for the design of this rig. Its something I've never seen done before, and if it works it should save me a ton of work.
