    Jeep Rad TJ TTB build

    Awesome. Steering is my favorite part of the engineering that goes into go-fast whoop scissors

    The Trailantula

    I’m guessing the shift rails involved lathe magic? Once the ears are lopped off, must expose a softer core? I tried drilling stock ears to 3/8” without succes

    The Trailantula

    Catchy thread title is catchy. Exciting seeing a new build come to life on a table. You’re probably excited to roll out new ideas from past experience on a clean slate.

    Dana 60 Kingpin steering knuckle & arms that tie together?

    Maybe kindly ask Ryan if he still does side runs of arms? Not sure why the high steer arm market is all wonky. And psa, greatautodeals on eBay gives me the heebie jeebies. They list stolen photos from every high steer manufacturer and at prices well below 50%.

    Dana 60 Kingpin steering knuckle & arms that tie together?

    I have a set of TMRs Dana 44 raised arms. Quality is nice but if you’re in a real time crunch, ordering from snow Mexico blows unless you find USA inventory, not sure who their dealers are. Per TMR, they once made aluminum arms but had a lot of failures.

    Sky’s has a knuckle tie-in that’s kind of attractive vs the slab of meat style. Summit Racing has 2 pairs of aloomeeneeumm Artec arms in stock

    It’s a bummer that four wheel supply closed shop or at least discontinued the high steer arm side of the shop. He offered any configuration at good prices

    Shop / Tools Today I want this...tool edition

    I compared before I posted and swag doesn’t come close when you compare capacity. Then you need legit table plates and a press. Either way, you’re paying retail...... I have 80% of the material needed to build something between this and what I posted on the first page. Then I get bored and move...

    Putting a man on the moon isn’t nearly as cool as what a computer can do for shop guys https://weldtables.com/collections/clamps-accessories/products/certiflat-fabpress-diy-press-brake I thought the price was a little lower but still neat as hell. I’d buy vs burning up material allotted for...
