noonzor · 03-26-2010, 10:26 AM

super pumped, jus picked up a bandsaw off kijiji for $300. the previous owner was a custom knife maker, he installed 2 other motors for slower speeds for cutting steel.

and i found a local steel distributor that i can get the DOM i need to finish the trailing arms, cost me $15 for the steel, now just need a place to thread it for me.

noonzor · 03-26-2010, 06:15 PM

found a good machine shop, quoted me $45 WOOT! be getting the trailing arms FINALY finished next week.

sweet man, yeah thats a really nice color. mines the light green aswell, cept after some investigating noticed its maroon underneath. really like the light green though.

noonzor · 05-19-2010, 02:47 PM

progress.... TRAILING ARMS FINALLY DONE!!! haha

djracer · 05-19-2010, 07:00 PM

That looks way sweet. How much do they weigh compared to factory arms?

noonzor · 05-20-2010, 12:32 AM

hafta weigh em still, but just by holding em they feel about the same. cept WAAYY stronger haha.

Average Joe · 05-21-2010, 11:53 AM

Cool build!

noonzor · 05-21-2010, 12:00 PM

just gonna throw this out there...... should i back half? then when i think about back half, why just build half a frame? should i build a full 2x6 frame?

the more and more i think about the power im gonna put in this thing the more and more i think its probably not a bad idea.

but is it overboard??

noonzor · 05-21-2010, 04:14 PM

rainy day, and a good lazy day. painted the 12 bolt and did some grinding on my newly revamped cab mounts(the old mounting holes were pretty oval/stretched looking). now im gonna go lay on the couch and sleep off this hangover.

djracer · 05-21-2010, 10:36 PM

back halves are for folks too lazy to make the stock stuff work.

My new bullet on the hose should be 1200 to 1500hp.
