Looks good man !!! You've been busy

Been Trying to keep busy on it

did ya flip the rear hubs yet or no

Pretty fun story on that, I had em all tore down tried to do it, tried hammering one out, it screwed up one of the treads so I stuck a lug nut on it to give more pressing surface and put it in the press, cranked it down and POW, I was like hell yea finally broke loose, .......nope  Damn threads just snapped off, Got pissed and just stuck the damn things back on without flipping em. So I gotta pull the old ones off the front and stick em on the back and put the new longer ones on the front. Ya cant tell the difference without the flip with the terras anyway, so I'm gonna tackle that after opening day

thats a nice looking blazer you built

[Boggerram87]

Well had a lil issue with the front shaft I built.......seams as if I forgot about the damn Ball & Socket in the middle of the double joint  so not having it made it real real sketchy, floping around all over...Got back to the drawing board last night and just went the easy route and cut the welds on the shaft and lengthened it to eliminate the double joint up top....One less thing to break. Took some time and grinding but its ready to rock!  Gotta run out tonight and get steel to lengthen the rear and get my brakes done. Hello Opening day!

Very nice!  When is testing day?

[Boggerram87]

Testing day has come and gone. Ran her at TAMR Comp bog, did ok, shoulda ran the r1's instead of the terra but still had a blast, followed it up the next day at the mounds.....had a great time but truck didnt do so well. Got a escort fro Cory, powersteering pump was whining all the way out to the rock pile, stopped to check it out and the fluid was damn near boiling, I spit on it and it sizzled So we were sitting there letting it cool off and a Suburban got stuck in front of us, so I gave him a tug and the trans snapped and fluid started pouring out! Watched the rest of the day and babied it back in. made 2 attemts to get truck on trailer and it started slippng because all the fluid was gone so the old man ran up to get more, we were getting everything lined up for one last shot at getting it on so we jacked up the rear end to slide it over a bit and found out that the weld in the rear axle broke so I gotta tear that down and reweld it! Rough start but its bound to happen on a new rig. Gonna put a new pump with cooler on, and go with a 400-200 combo to replace the 700-208! I'll get pics up asap

[four_by_ken]

You are running hydraulic steering, right?

[Boggerram87]

[Boggerram87]

Got the 700r4-208 Out and picked up my th400 and Np200! Thanks Mud_for_fun! Time to start Fab'ing up crossmembers and driveshafts!

You going to make it to the Budget Boggers bog with the Blazer?

You going to make it to the Budget Boggers bog with the Blazer?

I would like to take it out there and do a lil test running on it but I got my cousins openhouse down in Mt Clemens, so we'll see, might try and ditch early or go later on.

Got The trans yesterday, didn't realize how long that 2wd th400 was, gonna be cutting it close! Rear driveshaft is only gonna be around 25" long. I did some calculations and I gotta go out and buy 35' of 2x2 steel to build the cage to hold in the new np200 and 2 sheets of 14x30" 3/8" steel to build the cradle for my link bars once there shortened, Not looking so good to be ready for the 4-H fair this friday night!
