Also Mofo, I have the factory A-arms for my truck. Used but great shape. If you like I can send you a replacement for that left rear for $1 w/ shipping.

Post yours up there, swarmjt.......I would like to see what you have done with it.....;)
 
thanks ace, I wanted to see how you had everything else placed. looks purty ^_^

Appreciate the offer and I wish I saw it when you posted but I ordered some new a-arms and they should be here Monday, along with a few other toys. mwahahah

How do you like those tires? I was going to get them then I ended up grabbing the tractor tires as you can see in my other pictures. Let me say I have no regrets, I love their performance.
 
Thanks Mofo.
The tires provide superb traction and handling (1" wider track) but do weight more and have more rotating mass than other 40 series available. But with a .26 picco and hardened steel drivetrain they will plow a yard ready for seed planting! After trial & error I learned to add reinforced duct tape along the inside center of the tires to tame ballooning. A little tape makes a HUGE difference.

That looks great! I love how those hummer bodies just makes a truck look even meaner.

I'm using the stock battery/receiver box with the Hard Core Racing Ti skidplate. They're really tough. I've been beating mine pretty hard and no scratches to speak of.....
 
Could you take some pics closeup maybe without the battery. I'd like to see how you mounted it. I would also really like to do something like that so pics would be a HUGE HELP!
 
Nice Hamz and Z400....

Hey Smokin can I send you some cash for one of those Batt mounts???

Please ;)
