Go Luke, go!

Pimp that bitch up good :twisted:

every thing has gone ok except for, idler pulley ceasing up ($4.50 repco).
and the brake vacum pump has shit itself ($300-500), so im riding round on what feels like series three drums and im putting wieght on so i can get that pedal down :D. picked up miltary front axle casing last night which has a full cast centre 1''+++ thickness and the tubes are at least 1/2in wall. so ill have pics soon of front end and locker install.

If you learnt how to wheel properly you wouldn't need those lockers :finger:

Sounds like this is going to rival the old RR on 38". :twisted:

Will catch a glimpse of it soon. PM me your number so I can get those pics and see this Fenderute again. Have you got a proper exhaust, yet?

And on top of that, you would be able to yell on the internet and have bad spelling, like all the cool kids.

Where was this?

And where was the PM to tag along. I always like seeing jappers stuck where fenders tread.
