Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

Nice to see it's getting closer to paint DJ. Have you decided on a color?

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

The original plan was Black With Blue and Purple Flames. But who Knows.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

We were not happy with the pin fit on the rods so we had them done. We should have the motor together pretty soon. I'll try to get some pics up soon.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

any new progress??

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

I am getting closer a little at a time. I just got a new job that will help through the cash department. I just hope I survive 16 weeks of school. I'm looking for a new set of rear wheels. I need at least a set of 12 or 14 inch wide wheels. I'm considering a new rear end to lose a little more weight and to get my offset where I want it.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

i just hope you dont loose the sharp launch that made the truck famous in the firt place

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

awesome man!

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

It actually hasn't picked the front tires up like that since it got the mustang II front end. As long as it runs really fast I don't care.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

whatd it have before the mustang? sorry if i missed it...

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

DJ its good to see you still getting it done i know it takes a while ive had my motor apart for a while my self but its comin soon. how the progress so for. best of luck and hang in there bud. from what ive read thats gonna be a bad beast.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

stock suspension and moroso trick springs I think.

Thanks Paul I hope it will be worth the wait.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

I found something for the drag truck I had to have. I'm going to get new wheels and didn't want to buy them for the width rear that is in the truck so I bought this even though I still need to shorten it some.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

awesome

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

Sweet!!! What's the width of the rearend that's currently in the truck?

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

the one that is in the truck is 57 inches from wheel mounting surface to wheel mounting surface.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

you got your fab 9 finally eh, awesome man! what size wheel/tire you plan on running?

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

16x14 with a 33 10.5w x 16 tire

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

cool man, not gonna go wider anymore?

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

Is that narrower than factory? Will it will bolt to the factory trailing arms?

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

im guessin your ditchin the trailing arms for ladder bars?

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

Yes and Yes

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

Not a chance they just came with the rearend.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

are your trailing ar,s adjustable

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

Not yet but I plan to fab some new front brackets and maybe buy some aftermarket trailing arms.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

and it launched that hard!!!
what are you doing with the old rear?

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

The wheels on the truck are only 10 inches wide but the 14 inch wide wheels will put allot more rubber on the ground. Anybody can go fast on a monster tire I want to not go any bigger than a 10.5w.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

I'm gonna put a smaller street gear in it and put it under my son's truck.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

i effin love that mentality!! haha thats awesome. cant wait!!
