i dunno if i'd trust him tho, he was quoting some dude a while back 300 for a full cage including materials. there's no way if he's gonn do it with DOM or HREW he could build a cage and come out ahead in that deal. plus some of his stuff he's posted on RME seem sketchy to me.

i don't know the guy all i know is one of the rigs he built and it wasn't much past a carbon county contraption lol

just my opinion tho, if someone does go that route i'd like to check them out to cure some curiosity.

Lol, Well good to know! scratch that then! I guess if you want inexpensive and don't want to build them yourself Trail-gears sliders are pretty good lol

That guy was Sean's (orviscrawler) buddy, I guess he is a punk. Sean pretty much did his SAS on his runner for him. since he kind of helped sean now he thinks he can fab and opened a shop. I was going to get some of those and Sean told me hell no don't do it!

Bummer! Just before tearing into the front end to do the high steer, I noticed the clearance on the new tie rod was insufficient.

I need either a pair or at least a passenger side flat top D44 knuckle...let me know if you know of one! It MUST have the stock cast arm still on it.

On a related note, I have 2 flat top D44 knuckles without the stock arm available for sale. They have never been run and have new ball joints


On the bright side, I did get the motor mounts replaced finally, as well as the Durango steering box upgrade.
