Well, it's Cinco de Mayo again, and I've been a slacker with no updates for you fine folks recently. To recap what's happened in the last year......not much. I took it to socal fest last year and had a bunch of fun on the trails, but the motor developed a bit of a smoking problem, along with a slight knock. Turns out that it had somehow burned 5 quarts of oil in just a couple thousand miles. Not good. I parked the truck for a number of months while I worked on other things, then pulled it out of storage when my girlfriends car was in the shop for a while. She drove it for a bit over a week before the water pump failed and it overheated badly.
This is not the end however. I had Russ at Bishop-Buehl Racing engines put together a stroker kit for me that I'll hopefully be assembling soon. I've also developed and released our new 3 and 4 link long arm suspension systems, which will be added soon, and I'm about to test fit our new heavy duty trans crossmember and skid plate, so there's lots more in store for this little truck.
I also realize that photobucket decided to ruin the internet this past year and that none of the pics in this thread are working for most of you. I'm working on a fix for this as well, so if you haven't been following along hopefully you'll be able to catch up soon.
