cool deal...pics when you get a chance

[Innis]

looks wicked man

[nfamus10]

lookin good brother, why you move the steering shaft? what size tires is he running?

[Draggin97]

thanks guys and hows it going grant? I have not seen you post in awhile, the steering shaft was binding pretty bad on the grommet. You could almost stick a finger through it, mines the same way so i decided to move it up to keep it from binding so bad and so that it would seal correctly. I am not sure on the tire size i believe that they are somewhere around 27" i probably almost tubbed the firewall big enough for 22's.

[Draggin97]

heres some pics for the hell of it-


all the peadels-


I need to get a line made for the clutch that is a little longer.

[nfamus10]

i got the fittings in today and am going tomorrow to get the line made. looks good zach, did you put the dash in already?

[Draggin97]

thanks guys, na steven i only put the dash in to make sure the clutch was not going to interfere with anything. Good thing i did not pay for that next day shipping huh ha ha! I am working on getting the wireing put back it now its gonna take a little bit there quite a bit to sort out. I also made the 3rd mount for the gear box and mounted the computer behind the dash. I will put some pics up later.
