i just went on a 2300 mile trip, no issues. you will need at least 3-4 months after its driveable to fix all the bugs. heck even a year later i have issues with stuff.

In december my steering shaft broke, poor design the first time. its all on your fab skills.

if ya'll don't mind, can you take a few pictures of everything, just so i can see what is going on, i am going to research for about 6 months or so before i take the steps to do this, but i am a visual person so that would be sweet if you could hook a brother up

Mine's a daily driver also. Not as sophisticated as Zach's, but it's quite road worthy.

Except at the moment it's sitting with no transmission, driveshaft or exhaust, lol -- while I rebuild the transmission.
