45acp’s DIVORCED build!

They aren't bad, just like any other flap disc. Great for the price. I wouldn't use one to clean up paint though,I would go with one I posted before' non woven striper disc. The one I linked is for grinding, they last long and give you a nice flat surface, though they aren't cheap.

 

Let's please keep this relevant to the build thread.

Thanks.

 

This!! God these things are nice. So worth it.

 

^^^^^THIS^^^^^

Nope not at all.

Raptor Liner as stated is where it is at for a DIY spray on that looks quality. I did the inside of my trailer with it and have a 26 gal water tank bolted to the flor on top of it that popped a strap at the last outing and vibrated back and forth on it and the tank was worse of than the liner . I got the black but the tintable is the same and any color, heck yeah.

 

Yea..then you could dye it....purple..or baby blue...

 

Bah... already had purple (...and babyish-lightish-grayish blue) on my F-150.



FINALLY picked up the link material for the rear axle. HOLY BALLS these lower links are gonna be huge.

2.25" OD x .375" DOM ~ 40lbs each.



Chopped off the older motor mounts today and working on the new ones.

 

Hey man where are you going to be at when you come to wyoming?

 

something custom..solid..for his 3rz...probably over built 1/4'' plate haha settle down haha

 

Lol exactly what I was thinking.

 

15th-21st it looks like. Schedule is a blank slate once I'm out there though. Drop of my kid in Torrington and then head through Wheatland and Laramie. Probably see my uncle and a buddy in CO, and inevitably Madjik_Man, I'm sure.

 

I picked up some basic rubber bushings from RuffStuff (IIRC). The first mounts were completely 1/4" plate but completely unnecessary I think. I'm just going with something similar using 3/16" plate and 1/8" dimple die plate. With less crap-tastic welding.

 

Haven't the foggiest idea to be honest haha
Assuming the poly mounts aren't as stiff, the only one I may change is the mount on the tcase. From what I understand, it's okay to hard mount the engine, so long as there is some allowable play in the tranny/tcase to avoid potential damage.

 

if you hard mount the motor...gotta do the tranny too. If you don't the motor won't twist, but the tranny will..that will cause issues.

same if you hard mount the tranny..gotta do the motor..or the motor will twist..and the tranny won't..same issues.

 

Currently I'm running rubber bushings all around

 

Trying to redeem myself here

 

Hey someone needs to seriously teach you how to weld uphill. Downhill weld will get nowhere near the penetration as an uphill weld. Other than that your improving by a lot

 

interesting, did not know that. thanks for posting.

 

Vertical welds should look like this
