    John Wilburn pointed me in this direction. I’m glad he did. Super COOL little Pinto Wagon!

      Thank you.
      I’ve been impressed with how involved he is with the people in the NNN.
      It’s clearly more than just an event he puts on.

      It seems like it’s going to be a really good time.

    Ive used tractor supply for leaf spring parts, they keep weld on spring perches and u bolt plates of all different sizes, just something to think about next time youre playing with leaf springs on a sunday, ive used them on rock crawlers with good results

      That’s exactly what I ended up doing. I had to modify them, but they worked out really well.
      That’s coming up in Friday’s video

      Thank you for watching, I appreciate every single view I get. I’m just a hillbilly welding stuff together in my garage, and it surprises me that anyone wants to watch.

      @Blue Collar Performance hey, I'm the same. Just having fun in the garage and taking folks along if they're interested! Thanks for the sub!

    You may want to invest in some cal-tracks for that thing

    Would have thought putting a snubber on that flange would give you a positive bite when it hit the floor.

      It really works pretty good as is other than the pinion hitting the floor, which is fixed now.

    I'm surprised you don't have any ladder bars. With an engine that size in a car that size, aren't you getting a lot of tire hop on a heavy launch??

      8.8 from an explorer. I had to change the spring perches and shock mounts, but it’s stock width
