    Thanks. I first learned to weld when I was 18. Built a bumper for my truck and then kept learning from then on. Building my old race truck taught me a whole lot. I do need to fire up the tig though and start making some really nice parts

    Hit some dirt today for the first time in this monster. All in all it was a success. The TRAC performance frontend worked flawlessly for all of the 120 dirtmiles that we did today. Rear suspension worked but needs a revalve and probably a respring for be to be truly happy with it. I'm a little picky when it comes to shock valving. I was really excited that you don't notice the side to side movement that comes with a panhard setup. I was actually only able to notice it on a couple rollers where the tires were almost off the ground and the dirt was really grippy and even then it was VERY minimal. All and all I'm pretty happy with it. Sorry no action shots. Was to busy driving it.

    Amazing top notch professional work. Bravo. I'm curious, what would that truck sell for?
    I assume the motor is stock since I didn't see any photos or discussions about it. Do you have plans to build the motor?

    No plans for the motor as of now. I wanted to supercharge there isn't enough room with the engine cage. I measured it out before I built it and there just wasn't a good way to build it and have the room. So maybe cams someday. My good buddy who works at TC said they made a noticeable in the shops race truck

    Thanks! T100 has been getting some love lately too. The new owner has been a huge help with this build.
