Building the "BEAST"

Sure Dude. I'll send you my stud fees proposal.

I live in Westminster off of Maganolia and McFadden. Where are you?

 

Sure, I'll send you my info in a pm and you can come by sometime.

 

Sounds good!

 

So is this thing lower yet? You've been talking about lowering it for 2 years now. Are you done yet?

 

Yep! just got done with it yesterday. My daughter took alot of pictures but I can't seem to down load them to my computer. She has a Mac. So now we're trying to figure out how to get them onto my computer.

 

OK!

Here is the first picture of it painted and ready to put it back together.


Bare with me. My daughter took these pictures with her camera which is a really nice one, and then she put them onto her computer using some program I know nothing about and for some reason we can't get them to up load onto my computer so she is taking a computer photo of her screen for each picture and the cropping it in photoshop and then emailing me the pictures. Long prcess, but now it's working. I'll have more up later.

Here are the rest.
Waiting for it's coilovers.


Engine cage all done.



It ws a tight sqeeze for the air intake but we made it work.


Got the coilovers back in.

The pictures are fuzzy because they are a picture from the computer screen. Was the only way we could figure out how to get them posted quickly.




Now "BIG SEXY" is back on the ground and her nose is out of the air.



Put the MTR's back on.

Now this is how the other pictures should have been.

And one last one for us all.


Enjoy!

 

How much lower are you now? Wait until you run it the first time with it lower. You'll love it. Tim and I ran the Rubicon last weekend and that was the first trip out on a real trail with the lowered rig and shock tuning. What a difference. Very stable. Now go get those shock valved.

 

Two inches in the front. Went from 28" to 26" and increased the wheel base by 1/4". I like that the nose is down now.

I'm wheeling it next weekend in Big Bear. Should have a good time.

I'm waiting for you t come down here so you can help me with the shocks.

 

looks great man!! those clearances sure are tight on the engine cage!

 

Lots of room in there. You could fit an elefant in there

 

Nice! You'll like being nose down now. You'll be able to see the trail. I'll let you know when I'm coming down next. Probably a good winter project since we'll have to pull it all back a part.

 

What can I say? Uhhh, "freakin' beautiful bitchin' truck!!!!!!!
I'd hate to accidently pull up next to you one random day. I'd feel like a Yaris next to your Beast. LOL.
Nice work there.

 

Dude, You can have my Garage any day!! Come on down,there is some places to wheel!! or just make your own with the beast.. Edinburg won't mind...lol

 

Thank you very much.

 

I'll take you up on that one of these days.

 

damn dude that beast is freaking awesome.

 

Thank you very much.

 

Ran John Bull and Gold mountain in Big Bear last weekend. Here are a couple of pictures that my daighter took from the weekend. Truck ran great and the changes I made to the shock towers worked perfectly. Flew down some of the fire roads at about 60 mph and the truck just floated over them. Was alot more stable than before and didn't notice any hendrence in ground clearence either. But I did notice that it climbed better. Love it.
