Re: Horizontal Rib Grand Hauler box

Re: Horizontal Rib Grand Hauler box

Re: Horizontal Rib Grand Hauler box
Thanks guys. The fact that this box turned out as nice as it did is a bit of a small miracle. Somewhere between Friday and Tuesday while it was at the powder coating shop it took a big hit and was...

Thanks a lot guys. I'm not sure what the reduction is ahead of the trans. I think I was told it's around 4-1 but I honestly never actually counted the teeth. I believe the motor is a 55t and then the...

Re: Welcome rcbrmin.
I just received an order from them today. It was placed last Monday. They didn't update the UPS tracking so I emailed them and had a response within a few minutes with the tracking info.
