boy hellbent .....if that thing were stuffed anymore it would be a thanksgiving turkey ! ;D ;D hahaha i agree the core supports suck.....especially the top.....if you can get a piece of angle or anything up there it will do alot of good......and ranger is right....i have always called the mud and snows diggers...and the tractor tire type bar treads or just tractor tires....sorry about the mix up. Haha...i understood what you meant, but there seemed to be some confusion on it. I tried to clear it up, but just made it worse. But hey, everone has to be good at somethin', right? If it ain't broke, I fix it til it is! ;D

at first i was losing due to the fact that my leaf stacks were to stiff and wasn't using a slider shaft, now i use one and no problem with that. this year i blew a clutch apart every derby:(

yeah as far as i know they did take over......that washington courthouse show is a long way for me too.....1000 to win compacts i guess.......of course the 80's and up fullsize is 11000 to win........what a crock ! compacts should be like 2500 !......oh well.....back on topic.....i have only lost one drive shaft due to lack of knowledge......springs rotated and came through floor in front of the leaves......took care of that .......haven't had one drop since......never used a slider either.

hope you do good with it tho. i drove another 75 miles each way when i got it. further from you. i think with the exception of possibly a slider i got everything i need to build this turd. found 2 mustangs for 400 dollars so once i kill it i will be building them. working on a sponsor too. might even end up running a ohio show or to.

all my stuff was too stiff and i would actually bust the drive shaft or motor mounts and tranny mounts. i just built one go to tractor supply and get your yokes there and everything i did mine for about 100 bucks i think it was and it has worked good for about 2 and a half years so far
