I pay for all of my stuff aint nothin sponsored by mommy or daddy

me to, my parents would never pay for any of my stuff, but if they did I would be spoiled rotten and to proud to help anyone

Yup

Update! Haven't done much to it because I've been waiting on a stearing rack, but today I got one from a golf cart that should be perfect! So I'm gonna slowly get back to work on it!   
Ill get pics soon   

nice to hear from ya! lol

Thanks lol I've been busy hopefully getting back in the game though

The steering rack

That looks like the rack and pinion from a mustang 2 LOL

Lol I got it out of a yamaha golf cart from school that they replaced

Hey u made anymore progress on this one yet? I'm interested in seeing how u made ur adapters bc ive got 8 lug wheels too so im trying to figure out exactly how I wanna do it bc cutting up the original wheel is an option but im also thinking will it look the best.

I haven't done much besides getting a steering rack for it but for the front I'm using factory's with the 8 lug plates I'm gonna weld em together with studs, and for the rear I'm using some plate cause I have to go from 5 lug to 8 lug, if you look back through the build I have pics of the front adapters mocked up

yea I saw the front mock up. My front and rears are keyed shafts in the rear and a c clipped shaft on the fronts.

I'd use factory wheels in it some how, ur gonna have to atleast use the shaft off of the wheel

what did u get ur metal piece with the 8 lug holes from?

Off of my old dually rv most older duallys have em

Alright I'm still gonna do this someday, just ain't had money to work on it

I feel your pain! just spent a bunch of money trying to fix my truck and stuff. got like $60 still thow

Lucky lol

I kind of forgot about this thing, I remember when you started on it. As far as fitting your rack and pinion, you can take off one tie rod end and mount it parallel with your frame if you have too, to save space up front. Instead of hooking each side to the wheels. Of course you need a rod between the wheels then to hook them together if you know what I mean. When you get back to it that is. I've seen them used that way on old dirt cars. I think the tires look just about right, size wise. Did you guys mount those by hand?

We have a tire machine at school but we bout broke it haha, but after we got the first bead on em we took bout 5 or 6 guys to put it on lol lets just say it was no easy task   

Hopefully gonna resume working on it again soon

so have you gotten this thing done or did you give up on it

No I haven't had a chance to work on it I've been building my 72chrvy and the swamp buggys
