| No new updates as of the moment...... Finances for it have gotten kinda thin here lately..... Hopefully I'll be able to get back on it here soon.... As far as Joes new buy I'll let him fill every one in on that...... I will say it was a good buy tho......

One thing tho. those steering shafts seem to be at such an extreme angle. or is that just a funny angle of the pic? |

| In that pic it was binding. Since then he had the R&P mount cut down to get better angles on the U joints and get it centered up on the beam.
