Re: Tons, Atlas
Its always been a pet peve mine that they make the outers 300m but the inners chromoly, you pay extra for the 300m inners.

So here's where I'm at, a few big work days next weekend, I'll be at the shop Friday - Sunday with a pretty good punch list:
* Install Atlas
* Fabricate new brackets for transmission crossmember
* If time allows, get axles located under the heep and make the comp cut
If anyone has the time to come down to Brockton and lend a hand I'll very much appreciate it! Food is on me and some cold beers if you're so inclined! Trying a bit of a trick install of the planetary shifter for the Atlas. Since the new axles don't have an e-brake (I'll be installing line locks) I'm going to be removing the e-brake assembly and set the planetary shifter in its place.

Re: Tons, Atlas
As long as things stay quiet on the home front, I can lend a hand Saturday or Sunday. Text me the address. And when it gets close, what time you'll be there. And don't say 'wicked early'. Some people think wicked early is 'the crack of noon'

Re: Tons, Atlas
Awesome, thanks a lot Carl! Saturday would be great, my goal is to spend friday cleaning the shop and doing the initial setup on the atlas so it'll be ready to go in saturday morning. I'll probably get started around 9

Re: Tons, Atlas
We're in there! Relatively short time too. Big thanks to Carl and Ryan for lending a hand today! Cables are nicely adjusted, only thibg left is to fabricate a bracket for the reduction housing shifter, I'm going to put it through the slot my e-brake used to live. Pics!

Re: Tons, Atlas
Nice man... Really wish I had free time b/c I would really like to help out with these projects. Perhaps when Cam is 18 I will once again have free time.

Re: Tons, Atlas
Glad to help! Hope it's ready for RC. But it's always good to have a backup plan
