On another note, I got charged $70 re-stocking fee on the first crappy seats I ordered in. Even after I asked the little parts geek before I ordered and he said no charge if I had to bring them back, the butt-munch owner took $70!

Anyway, found a set of belts, maybe things are looking up, then again, talked to roll bar guy today he asked if I could pick it up Sun instead. Inspection guy just got back to him with plan approval for the back bars.

Re: Ran 11.44 @117.69mph
Here are a few pics from the past at the local track. I have no details at all on the trucks or even how old the pics are.

Re: Ran 11.44 @117.69mph
No pics of yours what's up with that?
What's the deal with the 4 bars out the back of the cab? I have never seen that before and you show 2 trucks like that! The first truck you show needs allot of bars to replace the strength taken out with the firewall!

One thing that I don't like on mine is my seat sits too far forward now, I have to try and move the pedals forward for more leg room. He made my back hoop a bit different as a trade off. It has 2 down bars from the top that tie to the frame, and to the back bars, with it like this the NHRA inspector allowed the side bars to attach with plates to the floor and not tie into the frame. Also let me keep my slider and make room for the back bars to travel through the corners. But bad side, head rest hits on the bar and has to be moved forward, not good when your 6'1" 250lbs. My truck is camera shy when it's stripped down I was going to take a few pics on Sunday, but got a little off track and didn't get around to it. I'll for sure post some when I pick it up.

Re: Ran 11.44 @117.69mph
I'd be glad to, if I can figure out how to do it. I've been meaning to post some pics of my truck on the picture forum, but haven't quite figured out how. Not too computer-literate!
Anyways, those brackets are really nothing more than 1/4" steel turned to make a 90* bend. All together, they're about 5" long, bent in a 90* at about 2 1/2". I drilled a hole in each flat, bolted the bracket to the frame, then attached the upper mount of the shock through the other hole. Nothing too fancy. If I can figure this picture thing out, I will get some pics up. Hope this helps. |
