I'm really thinking thats my favorite i keep going back to it as my comparison, does it look as good as the black cherry tho? making me thin i need to jkust do it. gotta order the paints this weekThat Black Cherry is awesome! In fact that's a cool name for your truck.
bro I thought it was a snake when i posted it lol its a velcro strap for the battery tho loloolThought that was a snake under the truck. My balls started to turn to ovaries from here!
Trucks coming together quite nicely
the bolts were fine, the issue is the stock sliders have a "shroud" at the end that goes over the screwhead. the club doesn't, i think I'm going to cut the piece off the stock sliders and put it on with the club slider so it has the shroud on it just to be safe. i notice the screw at the other end of both sway bars is completelky exposed. making them a matching set as it, naked. i am worried about stuff catching it the pivot point of the arm so am gonna try to rig it, I'm just always nervous to cut anything. once i do its ruint lolCan you swap the two circled bolts? the one on the left looks long enough.
i did swap the bolts by the way, i misunderstood you when i read that originally, yeah once i figured out that the piece i cut was going on the outside of the link and not the inside, i switched them out for some longer screws and put the brackets back on.Can you swap the two circled bolts? the one on the left looks long enough.
right? This is part of why I'm asking if its an important piece lol, i noticed the RP haver that additional piece that just makes the shroud. has me wondering if i need it, would RP waste the resources to machine that litle piece purely for cosmetic reasons? so i was wondering if it was required for optimal performance or something.The rock pirate sliders have that tab, I have them on my son's ecto and they have been great. If you search around, someone may make that tab alone.

Test without it, I bet it's unlikely required. My builds mount links on the inside of the frame without supportsright?

I'm going to get the hardliners bed after I paint the cab so I went ahead and started prepping the part for thatTest without it, I bet it's unlikely required. My builds mount links on the inside of the frame without supports
Those DL shocks may be a bit long for the ecto. I am running 100mm on mine and it seems to be perfect (I'm running the same shock towers too)getting some things, i got a new Dremel so will finish cutting out the bracket once i get the bed in

i was a little nervopus about that to be honest i just guessed on shock length figured longer was better. classic me. looks like i may have a return sooner than i thoughtThose DL shocks may be a bit long for the ecto.

Another great mod for the truck is the servo on axle, get the weight down low and off the frame
