No problem. I never knew why they made the part number for the new truck smaller than the older?

I hope you guys like pics I didn't bring the camera with the video... I probably won't take any video until I get the trans sorted out. No one enjoys hearing that noise.



Took it to the rocks to see how it would do. The transmission complained quite a bit but other than that it had plenty of power with the current gearing and the suspension seems pretty stable. Center of gravity was a lot better than I thought. I'm not running any foams at all in the tires. Sometimes it's ok and other times it's not, mainly when there is a heavy load on one tire. I think I'm going to have to modify the stock foams and put them back in. Anyone know of 3.2" beadlock wheels with 17mm hexes? Full offset preferred. There weren't to many places it wouldn't go. No real challenging climbs.





Then it was over to the baseball field for some low traction high speed testing! They didn't mind me running for a few minutes.



You can definitely see the need for foams when running wide open.







To much fun!
