Awesome work on the frame. You made that assembly look too easy.

Looks awesome Jim,

Can't tell by the pics, are you running a inner drum e-brake system?

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"

Really good to know. I also have kore 3 but they did not have a e-brake rotor available yet for the 5x5.

Good idea on the clamps. I have them in preparation for my accu air install, I guess I will need a couple more..

Keep up the great work!

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"

All I can say is.... Wow!!! The quality of craftsmanship is top notch. I love the ingenious ways you use things, like the motor stands, other than their intended use. I am going to use the motor stand idea for my chassis when I go to paint it. Keep up the good work.

The more parts you put on the better and better it looks. Keep it up.
