My Build Log - For my tracking and yours

Incase you didn't know stickers actually add horsepower

Want to sell your stickers?
Really, as a new owner myself, I am ashamed of myself for not having a SC, lift and tires by now.
You are doing a great job, and it shows by the reactions you are getting!
Priceless, eh?
Best,

Stickers are gone now Must have only been a temporary gain... not sure why the didn't last.

I've had my VX for 2 months (as of this last weekend) If it weren't for me going to Moab I'd have been a bit more conservative. But I had to go... and had to look at everyone else's ride... And get bit by the Moab bug... and now I need to go back...

I need to run out of things to do soon... but I keep finding so much

Nice dude, it's so much fun, isn't it? Where did you get the heavy duty tie-rods. After Hell's Revenge I am thinking this wouldn't be a bad idea for me too...

Acender, didn't you make your tie-rods? Are you interested in a little side business?
Peace.

They showed up today... I got them from Independent4X $200, and they're mean... Mine aren't Red like Ldubs, they came zinc/copper/brass lookin' (think it's zinc plating, like a grade 8 bolt)

They look EXTREMELY TOUGH... simple enough install too... Hopefully I'll get to them in the next few days.

Yes Bart... Extremely Fun... My pictures really don't do it justice... I need to go out in the "field" and take some shots..

My images make my wheels and tires look small

Pay attention to the orientation of the grease zerks when you install them.
Make sure they are pointing in a direction that's easily accessable for greasing.

Mine weren't red when I got them, just raw steel, (no shiny stuff) I painted them to resist corrosion...& the fact that I like a little red paint here & there.
You might want to try Bulldog adhesion promoter (wal-mart) on the shiny bits.

Whatever you use, be prepared to hit it with touch up paint after the alignment guy gets done chowdering up your fresh paint job...

Hey Richie, I see on the Indy4x site they have long, medium and short. What length do we need for the VX?

Thanks - Bart

[taylorRichie]

Hey Bart,

Large is what we need for the vehicross...

I called them and that's what they said... and that's what I've got installed... So I hope it's right
