Re: My Wide Open Design Evolution Chassis Build
I have the belly pans, coolant jug, fire extinguisher, and tail panel mounted. Tore it all down for final welding on the chassis which will start Tuesday night by a much better welder than me. Got the 14 bolt built and truss installed. Took the TH400 to a local shop for rebuild mainly to save time. Hopefully I will paint the chassis by the end of this week and I will post some photos.
Hal, I talked to Steve last night and he told me you made it through Crackhead. I wish I could have seen that because some places are a tight squeeze for a one ton rig. Maybe he got some video.

Re: My Wide Open Design Evolution Chassis Build
I was desperately trying to take it to Dixie Run but I didn't get it finished. I worked up to 14 hours on my days off. It is mostly finished except for the wiring and a few other odds and ends.
Here are some crappy cell phone photos.
I am working on the engine wiring harness now. I am converting it to drive by cable.

Hey sawzall, we had a great time at Dixie run . You should have been there. I ran $90.00 worth of gas through me jeep. I noticed you are running an accumulator , I've got one too. Going down crack head mine kicked in several times. That could save your motor. You will have the best rig where ever you go,looks sharp!
