I was replying to you in that last post. I should of quoted it... I wasn't replying to the clown before me. We welded in pieces of metal and slipped tube over it and welded that. It will be plenty strong. I personally think it's very strong and safe too by the way he did it.

 

i know...

just nvm lol

 

About those tie rods.... you never did give an explanation of how/what you did to em, if anything.

Please explain.

 

i get the sarcasm now lol..

wait wait.. is it we... or ...He? you keep saying we then you say the way he did it... so did he do them and you watched or whats going on? back and forth back and forth....?

 

maybe because he might not know or its really bad lol...

 

my vote is all thread

 

Come on guys, leave the bashing outta the thread. Honestly. He wanted to show us some custom stuff he and his buddy did. If he was looking for you to bash him I think Cory woulda asked. I'm sure they're gonna test it out before it's put to use. He's not stupid.

/end hack.

 

We did the build together and he welded the steering. Sorry for the confusion.

 

Thanks Tre. You can see it in person and i'm sure you will agree that it's fine. I'm done replying to this.

 

not really bashing but trying to get answers out of him is like getting gum to drip like water...

whats with the tie rods?

whats with the stock jack points ?

still using the T-bars?

or coil over's ?

gonna upgrade the ball joints?

maybe go to a better wheel bearing then a 4x4 unit that wants a CV on it with a nut to hold pressure on it to keep it from grenading?!


what i know now i wouldnt wanna ride on the road next to it....

 

welded the steering?! um what? did he do?


See what i mean he runs off....

normally this imply that he can not answer the questions or wasn't prepared to have the work questioned in any way....

 

why share pics if no other info is going to be given? not bashing.

Im just curious and try to learn from reading about other peoples projects on here... posting low res pics of weird looking stuff then not explaining anything is going to get questioned.

 

Tie rods are functional.

Those are steering stops, not jack points.

Still using torsion bars.

No coil-overs.

Wouldn't matter if they're extended CV's like the ones I may be running soon.

It's a good thing you don't live around here then is it Zach?

 

works and safe are 2 different things.. what was welded?

he NEEDS a cv shaft in that hub on a live axle setup or its gonna grenade..

 

I dunno yet. I drive by his truck every morning on my way to school. He works just down the street from where I live so I'll try and stop in and check it out. Neither one of them are stupid like Stoner thinks.

For what it's being used for RIGHT NOW, it's safe. I don't know what his plans are for the truck though. Like I said, I'll find out.

 

meaning what? i have seen wrenches welded on to broken tie rods and be called functional...


stock steering stops are on the Knuckle and it contacts the lower Control arm at the base... so he added steering stops that use the stock jack loops?

so same travel as before maybe 2-4" up travel on a long arm set up... interesting.. not really practical...

thats a shame... plans to run them?

that would be great but i wouldnt be driving on those bearings with out them in, the live axle bearings really arnt happy with out the cv in and the retaining nut on...

**** ya it is...

 

rope is functional, not very safe tho', how safe are those tie rods?

I'm praying to god you're seeing something other than he is.

IIRC, he said they took the CV's out all together.

 

really really right now if its moving with out a CV in that bearing its not safe.. but good luck with that...

 

if its on public streets.. its not safe.

 

Who the hell are you to come and demand all this **** from Cory, Zach. Give him some space and time.

I may have been looking at something else in the pics, like I said, when I see it next I'll make sure I spell out how well it works for mr. stoner.

I'm damn glad too Zach you don't live anywhere near me, cuz seriously the way you respond to some people, I would purposely run straight into you with my truck. You really are an ***. I'm done replying here now too. Until I see the truck. So **** off.

 

wow, this went bad fast! Everybody chill and have a beer!

 

no need have the thread deleted then I am a member on a public board and he posted on a public board about custom work people ask questions so be ready to answer or GTFO....


For the record the name is Stone not Stoner.. there is a Stoner on the Board, David Stoner he lives 8 houses down from me here is his S/N and link honkytonkstoner

yes it can be possible we are talking about 2 different things...

funny you havent seen it up close and are answering questions and the guy that was there helping cant even answer simple questions and leaves....


Dont cry its the internet funny how many members trucks have been in my driveway being working on for free and i help, but yes i will be an *** to people that skip around things and act shady ... welcome been here since it opened enjoy...

 

Funny how i am asking simple questions for the people that built it and yet the guy cant answer leaves and I am the bloody A** in this lol... funny as hell

also pointing out a HUGE issue that the truck shouldnt be on the road to save him and HIS truck from damage or hiting another motorist but once again remember who the A hole is!

 

Nothing was "demanded", the way I saw it we were all quite nice.

He posted pics and then gave no explanation what so ever as to anything in the pics, he was there, supposedly done some of the work, so really he shouldn't need anymore time or space.

Damn, calm down there sea biscuit, remember, breathe positivity in, negativity out.

 

check out the pic in the first post. looks like there is a stub of the CV thru the hub....
dont worry, we all know who the Ahole is





seriously guys, R-F is like watching a hen house lately.
