I didn't have the yellow front springs though, and I was running the 1410. Made for a front heavy truck so.... I went back to the sticks, and I'm running a 5oz weight on the other side for counter balance.
Rock on.

My first version on my Chassis Brace I sell guys looked as "po'dunk" as that one. If you sanded off that goop, you'd do your brace some justice. You did well.

Yep! That's why I was selling mine at no profit for guys. It's just such a huge difference in performance. It doesn't make you 'faster' persay: It makes the truck 'work'.

I cut one of the outdrive o-rings when changing diff fluid. I think I read on here a couple of weeks ago or so where someone was using a different one that helped out with the oil leaking but I've been unable to find it. If anyone knows of a better option than the AE o-ring I would appreciate it.

Thanks,

Thanks. By the way I think that was your truck I saw a picture of with the lead in the slots on the side rails. Did you buy sized to fit or is it mod to fit?

Slide in vertical with or without the Sticky peeled. (if you peel to stick them and squish them in, have fun getting them out) I just left the adhesive alone and shoved them in, They are just big enough to stay under VERY hard crashes and with a driver, they pop out.

2 in each Side slot= heavy and as low as it gets without buying a 110.00 Chassis.

So all of those weights equal 6 oz? When you say 2 in each side slot do you mean front and back of each slot?

Thats good to hear about the fit as I am way to good at very hard crashes. I would love to have the exotech but its no where near my budget. I will be sending you a PM next week about a chasis brace. Thanks for your help.

This is an old image, but the weights have stayed the same through all my other upgrades.


You're very welcome, Jockey.

No they make just the body. It is on a SC10 4x4. They have designed the body with computers and tested the air flow of the body and located the vent cut outs in low pressure area's

I dig the windshield/hood treatment. Less surface area, less likely to grab air.

I hate the rear fender that end in a sharp corner point that will be the first thing to get torn off/pounded into oblivion.

I've been curious myself. Worth a try though. At worst it could be another practice body.

Well I have not had a body that I did not shoe goo up to help make it last. Other pictures looks like the rear fenders are longer too. I think the fenders have a little down force built in to them.
