Soon as I can find someone to come with me I'm hitting the trails!

It will just be a teaser run. I'll have to take it easy as there are usually bugs to be worked out on a shakedown run.

I moved the axle forward a few inches but left the steering and shackle in the previous location. Hoping it will work out.

I'm just DYING to see how the carb performs on the steep stuff. I did a few mods to the carb that should help.

FINALLY! I HAVE POWER STEERING! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

I guess I had the wrong pump. I figured it would work, but it diddnt. I switched to a regular pump with one return and one pressure, and it works!

So now I'm that much closer to hitting the trails. Next I have to get my wheels balanced. They vibrate like a mofo.


is this your dd?
I balanced our 36 inch swampers with 16 to 20 oz of the rv anti freeze. I used to use wind sheild washer fluid untill I saw what it was doing to the inside of my rims.
the rv anti freeze is supposed to be non corrosive.

no idea of why this works, it is against logic un less it is just a damper for the out of balance part. but it works pretty well.
