Status: offline 		Well.. I broke a few parts today..bad ass bashing session btw. I found a nice abandoned construction site with 15 foot high jumps. Ill post pics of the carnage later. So far that I can see I broke, front and rear lower a arms, bent shock shaft, broken body post, bent turnbuckle, some how the exhaust got caught into the fly wheel or clutch bell and it ate it and sliced a small gouge at the end and started pulling one side off. That just ended up blowing oil ALL over the truck. I ran the truck for 5 tanks with just half a lower A arm up front on the left and one shock on one that left side. For the body posts..I guess tower is out of stock, are there any other substitutions that will fit?

Status: offline 		Go to your LHS and get aluminum tubing. Bring a tower and see what size fits the body post holes.

I did this for an SUV body and it worked great. Perfect snug fit, oober strong, and really cheap. Like $4 for all four posts since the tubes come in lengths of about a foot.

I with I knew the diameter of the tube so you could order some. I'll try and measure it later.

Status: offline 		How are you cutting the hole for arm that holds the body clips? I don't believe there are dremel bits that small to cut holes. The diameter of the posts I believe is 5/16 in.
Oh and how thick of a wall do you recommend?

Status: offline 		I am having a little problem with my carb!!!!! I am used to airplane engines with the spin style carb cylinder. The problem is the slider sticks or has a hard time closing. I took it off the motor and am having a hard time getting it to slide smoothly. It is like it will pull out so far then is very hard to move in either direction. I was wanting to sand it GENTLY with some 400 grit sandpaper and water. But I was affraid to....What do ya'll suggest?????

Go ebay and get the lst2 pipe off of there.
Cheapest way and comes with a header to make a fit.
And doc better not post that darn pic.
