    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    Only the 8.75" the 8.0 and 8.4 jigs are just about ready. All the shells are formed and welded just waiting to be jigged up.

    @JLee, there's a 0 percent chance of me making it into the shop. My weekends are booked. Hopefully you can find an 8.75" to mock up and send me the new top piece if that's all that needs to change

    We hope to have the 8.4" completed and shipping out next week. I just want to test fit one before we weld all the skids up. Were checking fitment tomorrow and they will be welded up over the weekend. And the 8.0 shortly after that.

    A little 8.4 action today fits like a glove! I have a guy coming in tomorrow to finish them up so we can powder coat next week and get these out the door.

    How are things looking for the 8.0 skids nowadays? I'm hoping to have mine painted and installed before RT. Thanks!

    It was still in the box, but it looked like they had taped the ends back together at least once.

    No complaints from me on the packing/shipping, I know how hard UPS works to break shit, and how hard it is to package something that heavy.
