    These things are badass!! I threw one on the scale because I just had to know... 1 wheel mounted to 1 tire, weighs in at 65 lbs. lol
    I swear I'm going to scale this car before I roll it out of here.

    Well we ran into a problem, the front fender wells took some beating to be able to clear and still retain full steering lock and we noticed that the amount of lift we had was putting a strain on the shocks and causing them to bind so we made some adjustments and added some spacers and this is how she is sitting with full range of motion in the suspension and full turning radius.

    Is there a reason for taking the snorkel up the driver's side? It just seems like the intake pulls from the right side and there's less stuff in the way on the inside of that fender.

    Oh yeah, nice shoes!
  • josh1vtmjosh1vtm Council Member
    its gonna be turbo so it can really go up either side
  • bam-bambam-bam Council Member
    Kinda like Chip...could go either way! Just playin'. Really, as long as the distributor is lower it will shut you down in deep water first.

    I'm liking the setup. That next-to-last pic is the money shot!
