Engine & Solid Axle Swap Build

That is awesome. That is going to be one nice truck when it is finished.

 

wow very cool, cant wait to see how you hook it all up!

 

Well Hell. I guess I'll go out and unpack my truck now. I thought I was gonna have to do a road trip up to Spring Hill and get that thing fired up myself.

She sounds Sweet Greg. You definitely should be proud of yourself. I'm sure there's been a lot of blood, sweat and tears during the last 16 months since you hatched this plan. I've seen a lot of people who have these great projects in mind and mouth and that's where they stay. Good to see someone who actually follows through.

What's the status with check engine light? Or were you able to Trick-F the Honda ECU?...........later, slim

 

1 small step for man...1 giant leap for minitrucks...you sir..have set the bar pretty high...nice work is an understatement...can't wait to see the action vidsop:op:op:op:op:op:op:op:op:op:

Maybe this is what you are looking for?

 

looks cool...is this a stall tactic to divert from finishing?? we are all waiting with baited breath for frankenstein to rise from the crypt ans spit mud in all directions.

 

Yeah, once I had time I read the whole build. Pretty Sweet build you've got there!

 

Totally awesome!

Not knocking it at all, but why would you start with d30's (turdies) haha. Why not start with samurai axles, or toyota 8"s narrowed? Just wondering, as I know the d30's will be strong enough for those sized tires, but wouldn't it be nice to have a little extra insurance with a yota 8"?

Either way, totally cool, I am *crosses fingers* (hopefully) getting one soon and I have some sweet plans for it.

 

hope u are finished ,I would like to no what u would have done differant now as in the motor would u have went with older motor so it would have less elec problems to work out thinking of doing this soon just one step at a time motor,axles dont think i would try rear steer just yet i have a 96 hijet raised it 9 inches with 15 inch utv rims by itp 26 inch tires ,made a carb spacer and put a S&S harley carb and turbo on it the turbo has been a head ache trying to tune it please get back with us,with some updates
