Last night got drive gear off installed new one lost a washer and bolt in my shop for about 2 hours that was sitting on a table in front of me. Anyhow since I have it apart here are some modifications I have tried for heat and sound. Hopefully I can get the rear casing of engine back on tomorrow and see if she chooches. Still waiting for A arms though :(.

Well unfortunately it seems that I have done something wrong to the rig, won't run acts like clutch is slipping, dies when putting it in gear, won't shift. Sigh I guess maybe I'll see you guys next year, what I get for pushing the limits.

Oh no! I'm so sorry. That stinks.

Well been pretty upset thought I really messed something up but turns out after some thought I turned the selector in the gear motor housing backwards this would place pressure and make the motor unable to switch gears. Today I drove 8 hours to pick up arched A arms because shipping would have taken to long. The rig is sitting around n lift with no tires soon to have some new shoes and legs! I may make it after all
FREAK'N nuts!!! You're just FREAK'N nuts!!!

Now the question is do I risk trying to get ball joints out of stock? Do dealerships have ball joints? Do I go for broke since I drove 8 hrs for arched A arms and didn't think about the ball joints?
Lmao... go for it!

Can't believe I've missed this entire thread. Rig looks great man! What's the top end going to be with the IGR on it? You're gonna need that speed on the ROTC.
