    4x4 endurance racing in WA?

    I think there is enough people in the PNW with 'go-fast' rigs for somekind of event like that. Shame that the PNW Offroad events went away like they did. I know there is a UTV group trying to get some events together, NW Off-Road I believe.

    I will with the next one. Too far along with it now to make a drastic change, it kinda snowballed from what I originally intended.

    Got my fuel pump and fuel filter mounted. Fuel pump is your standard E2000 with a couple fancy mounts I found on Amazon. Fuel filter is a Jeep YJ filter. Decided to use the filter I bought for my steering as an auxiliary transmission filter. Will get another one for the steering. They are $12...

    Got the my 22 gallon RCI fuel cell mounted and a Summit Racing fender fill kit with a sweet Motobilt bracket. Also got my Grififin transmission cooler mounted, pretty well built unit. Also got all the rear link stuff pretty well buttoned up as well as the 2.5"x16" FOA coilovers. The 2.5"x2"...

    A little tech on the Nissan WD21 H233b rear axle third members. (Gasp! I know, Nissan tech!) There are two bolt patterns for the third member studs/bolts. The early H233b's use 8mm? bolts and the later pattern use 10mm studs. The patterns are not interchangeable. I started with a older style...

    Tube bender stand advice

    I've go my manual bender mounted in the shop floor with 4x 3/8" bolts, works good, mounted with 3/16" square tube. I was initially going to go with the hitch idea, but decided against it as I'm often working in my shop when it is raining as well as my driveway out of the shop is about a 6%...

    Got the transfer case mount mocked up. Had the D300 mounting plate cut locally. Plan on making a plate over the front output cover plate to stiffen it up.

    Slow progress, mocked up the passenger upper link. Barely clears the starter and will have to be clearance'd for the PS pump. Checking where the shocks/bumpstops will end up. Shocks are 2.5"x14" FOA coilovers with reservoirs and bumpstops are 2"x2" FOA bumps. Long tube headers won't fit stock...

    Decided to sleeve the passenger side frame rail for the track-bar mount. Track-bar mount built. Got my China-Spec power steering cooler mounted. Oil pan hangs way too low. Looks like a 2wd pan will be a good replacement and give me some clearance. And a current overall view

    Little more progress. Got a PSC TC pump mount made. Single wire GM 110 amp alternator mount made. Dragged the axle back under the front to start mocking up the suspension. At full bump, axle pumpkin gets into the alternator mount.
