I built the WORLD'S STRONGEST suspension for the 2nd gen syclone

Показать описание
Yup, its definitely overkill, but this custom 3-link rear suspension should never give me any issues, even if we achieve our goal of making 750 horsepower. This S-10 had terrible wheel hop with the stock V6, so it had to be corrected before adding more horsepower. The kit is based on off-road parts, but should work perfect in a triple threat pro touring style pickup.

check out my other build, the ugly truck. its a turbo big block burnout machine

I appreciate the lack of music and allowing the shop noise to be the background .

Been welding for over 50 years. TIG takes skill, while MIG is possibly the easiest mode of welding process. Knowing which is better for your application is key. You have mastered that.

After having a roll over in my racecar NOTHING was salvageable besides the ignition key...i truly appreciated having the appropriate safety equipment on board. I no longer think the words "overkill" applies. Over building is 110X safer no matter the components.

The voice over takes me back to the power block days.

It's therapy dude. Whether you are building it or i'm building something of my own, it's a heck of a lot better than dealing with the crap all around us. Thank you for showing us your build and your talent.

I've been tig welding in a Fire Truck manufacturing plant for 35 years(mostly aluminum, with 10-15% being stainless steel), all steel on Fire Trucks is MIG welded(I.e. ladders, turret, hydraulic tank, etc.). I train a lot of people to TIG weld. The ABSOLUTE hardest part is rhythm. Hands down. So, one of the questions I ask ANYONE I'm going to teach is: Can you dance?
If they say what, and they always do.
I ask: Do you play an instrument?
Then it's usually a stupified look. If they answer yes to either, I absolutely promise they can tig. The rest can be taught, but if you CAN'T KEEP TIME OR RHYTHM, you're hopeless.

15:00. Somtimes you can put some valve grinding compound on the threads, and just run it back and forth through the rough spot and it will slowly grind away the tight spots without ruining your threads. It’s a trick an old diesel mechanic taught me. Works great if it’s a large bolt that you don’t have a tap for

No thank you for not stopping after you left Trucks. I think moving over to YouTube was the best move you could have made. Your content is awesome. Keep up the good work

Watts-Link would be awesome in your application with limited travel. With your road race aspirations, would keep your rear end LOCKED in the center!

If it's worth doing, it's worth overdoing. Then you never have to worry about it. Excellent work!

When you lived in Utah, at least one of my comments was that you needed your own shop.

Now that you have it, look at the rate of your output! This is fantastic for all of us, including those of us who are "armchair gearheads" and who will likely never do most of what you do, but still love it as much as if we were in there TIGging, MIGging, and building with you.
