Finally got the grille and hood on. Definitely motivating seeing it come together. Now I’m mocking up some sliders klungly built for another project. Should be pretty sweet when I’m done. Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

I finished up my draglink with help from klungly. He bored out the pitman arm to accept the 1 ton TRE. Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

I finally put the cab on and as I expected I won’t be able to get it out of the garage unless I flatten the tires. It is a monster. Plus the put some ratchet straps on the rear and brought down the rear on the frame until the springs were almost flat. There’s still a pretty big rake to it so I...

Update. Bought another chromoly shaft to complete the D44. Also replaced the bearings, calipers and rotors. Also finally got the Willys on all four tires. Got some metal from klungly and finished boxing the frame. Got a one ton tie rod kit from East Coast Gear Supply and welded that up as...

Steak quesadillas. Put them on in the morning and they were perfect for lunch. Sent from my iPhone using WAYALIFE mobile app

I bought mine about a month ago before my trip to the Rubicon. I bought the 38x13.5x17 tires. Price was great. They seem to work well on rocks and mud. They are also way quieter than my old MT/Rs. I only have about 2,500 miles on them but I’m satisfied so far. Too early to tell though for long...

Alright, finally getting back to this project. None of the donor parts from the older D44 worked with the newer one. Axle shafts are different and the flat top knuckle doesn’t work with disc brakes. So I bought some new 4340 shafts from ECGS and knuckle setup for crossover steering. I think I...

Headed out to Walker Valley ORV Park with some friends. Got to test out the new tires. They performed great but I never really got to a spot I needed extra traction like a tough climb. I was also worried about the flex with the bigger tires but everything looked good. John (Prionic) sporting...

Did some research and talked to people and decided to purchase a cooler for my power steering and a new bigger HP supply line. I always wanted to add a second cooler for the transmission so the dual setup from PSC worked nicely. Fairly easy install. A little messy but not bad. I guess the...
