Looking good man, like the progress.   cheers

But if this thing truly is going to be "Nissan," you really must put something in place to obstruct access to the number 6 spark plug.

ha! I didn't even think about that tire when you told me that you messed one up on the trail.
I think Kenny is just using that one as a spare.

Are you going to have enough range of motion on those u-joints with the drive shaft being so short?

The problem wouldn't be when level and at ride height, it would be when it's drooping out in travel.  A 1310 u-joint, which that is, can only handle so much arc before binding and with such a short shaft it looks like it'll bind up fairly early.

Does it bind Kenny or will it work for you in your range of motion?
