    Ewww!

    Call Jesse at High Angle Driveline. He turned around the 2-piece driveshaft for my truck in about 2 weeks. $$$, but nice piece!

    The long-travel conversion is still underway.

    The new rear shocks required new upper shock mounts for both circumferential clearance and travel. The new upper hoops will be tied together when complete.

    IMG_1964_2ff6a51c658d56fdee989bb9c542bde9c5f360bd.jpg
    SCORE felt that the downward bends in the rear support tubes would compromise the structural integrity of the cage and requested that things be redesigned. The updates involved cutting and welding a sleeved straight tube to the end of each rear support tube. The new shock hoops provide additional support by tying middle sections of the support tubes to the frame.

    The factory master cylinder, power brake booster, and ABS controller are removed to fit the soon-to-be-fabricated upper shock hoops for the secondary bypass shocks. This is a change that was on the to-do list to improve braking performance with the rear discs so the timing worked out well.

    IMG_1958_57d99e86fdd54f732cfc8811ca891e8664a02e2e.jpg
    Removing the booster with a rollcage made for some interesting inverted wrenching. For those interested, it's held in place by 4 nuts accessible from inside the cab. :)

    Thanks for the kind words everyone. :) 1 more tube to tie the rear shock hoops together and then the work on the front shocks begins.

    ...then the new driveshaft, and the alignment cam tabs, and the engine mounts, and the RaceAir mount, and the exhaust rerouting, and the air bump mounts, and the new fuel filler neck...

    Perhaps you need to host a massive mod day in the near future.
