Re: Carly's 96

I got the center section emptied and tone ring off. Ill press the bearings off the old posi and make setup bearings for the new stuff along with the pinion bearing. I picked up a crush sleeve eliminator kit so ill mic the crush sleeve and try that spacing.

Because 1 race series isn’t enough, we got our girls into sprint carts. These things are a blast. Thought you all would like it.

Re: Nothing special class3 pics

Your bronco looks killer. I'd say 90% of the time, the first trip ends with a broken something. Can I ask what may have caused the break of the tie rod? I executed the first steering rod poorly, and was pushing the truck pretty hard. About 60-65 MPH through some pretty good bumps. I used 1.5 x.120 ...

Re: Carly's 96

The girls are now racing 2 series. 170s and sprint carts BUT we finally rear end parts! I ended up ordering a complete rebuild kit from yukon on amazon. Turns out its a pretty nice kit for under 600.00. I forgot to order a crush sleeve eliminator kit so that will need to be ordered. https://uploads....

Re: Rugged Radios Stretched Bronco - Factory Race Support, Tacos, and Coffee!

Did the porting ever get done on the intake Steve, or did that ever happen? The exhaust looks great. Why manual brakes? No worries! Yes. Porting is done and waiting for the new engine. Although, I'm tempted to install it on the current engine just to feel the difference. The current system was a ho...

Re: ISO Preferred spring rate and initial valving front

Stock width? I ran stock width 400/500 and was at 1 1/4" preload. Now on 350/450 and figuring 2" preload. I had a windsor in my old bronco and a 302 in Carly's .
