challenge truck re build

Shifty1962 · Jul 12, 2012

Never heard the saying "the customer is always right" even when they are not? LOL!
Looking good and solid though. How much does all that tubing weigh?

pressbrake · Jul 12, 2012

Who knows, there is 7 lengths in it so far so maybe close to 200lb

Tried to upload some better pics but it isnt working
Cos the customer has a butler and a double barrel name hes always going to be right

Shifty1962 · Jul 12, 2012

I have a butler sink and a double barrelled shotgun so does that mean I'm always right as well?

Depends whether it's loaded

Great work Pressbrake, I've been following the build on the Devon forum and it looks really good. Are you still building cages or is this rumour about you packing up true?

Thanks, yes truck comes in for conversion in 2 weeks , though I think Im also converting to dana 60 axles and full hydro steer.
Be making some challenge wings as well

discomark10 · Feb 22, 2013

wow, big upgrades! Why not go for d2 axles? 24 spline and no silly swivels? have you got it all worked out? did/are you using the excel spread sheet to get all the measurements?

pressbrake · Feb 22, 2013

Yes the pirate 4x4 spread sheet is handy, but I just use maths for initial calcs
All rover axles are weak junk(hes running a lot of hp and big tyres), the dana s have 1.5" halfshafts and dana 70 lockers go in and are cheap and the axle tubes are strong to take the loads from 3 link.
