Re: It's finally done my build is done
That's awesome, must feel good to see all that hard work pay off. What tire size were you running and what's on there now? Also, what spring rates did you settle on for the front?

37 to 39.5 tire
Spring rates are 225 over 250 I'm pretty sure

Re: It's finally done my build is done
That is one bad mo-fo. Really nice work and turned out great. Looks like it can go anywhere with all those hi-end parts. Love to see more pics of the rear suspension. Very well done build.

Re: It's finally done my build is done
Test drive complete wow this thing is couple small issues 1. Brakes such need to bleed 2. Clearance front drive shaft yoke and adjust pinion angle a little 3. Clutch seems to be chattering a little. 3.54 to 4.88 gears maybe a little worn out or need to get use to it?

Looks great on the dirt, chatter is usually a worn clutch disk or bad springs

Re: It's finally done my build is done
Looking at your flex shots, it says something when the front on an EB can move that freely.

Re: It's finally done my build is done
I'll most likely give you a call this week. I'm hoping to start mocking up the front end when my axle brackets come in.
