HAHA J/K looks great with the stretch. Are you going to paint the rails black to match? Yea i ordered rails the week after Indy and Im still waiting......... He must be behind on orders or waiting for more to come in. Hope i can make it to St Louis and see the new stretch
Thanks! I plan to paint the rails black too, I just have to finish up the deck plate and it will be ready to paint

TC,while I was @Indy this year,I bought 4 sets of frame rails from Ric.J D needed some,so I hooked him up.no sweat.

Ed
I got some pictures for ya I'll have some more tonight too I ended up ordering two drive shafts, one will go between the tamiya transmission and the 4:1, then a long one between the 4:1 and axle. I figured it up so the 4:1 will be hidden behind the fuel tanks, so you will only see the long drive shaft. Hopefully that makes sense lol I'll get some pictures of it


Here are some pictures of the deck plate progress....







Made a holder for the hydraulic hose for when its not in use....





Thanks for looking!
