Minitubs almost done.

Caulked the tubs right before I came to work today. Should be dry to paint tomorrow!

Next step: Rear Torque-Arm install!!!

Made some progress last night. Minitubs are officially DONE. finished it up with some 3M seam sealer (friggin $35 a can!) and some rock chip paint. Looks pretty good, although I'll admit it's not my best work and there's always room for improvement.


Last night a buddy was able to help me get the motor into the speed tech front subframe. This thing is gonna be killer, that's all I can say!!

Sorry for the crappy cell pics.

We also broke the hoist link to the chain, that was a very scary moment.

Next step: Swap sub frames!

It's great the way all your tools come out of the box on a minitub! Nice job, cant wait to see the bad boy on the ground.

Maybe I'm just a bit thick, but I think i missed this one... ?


Here we are... FINALLY!

Front subframe... GONE!




Usher in the new SpeedTech Subframe and engine combo all as one giant unit.

This was really really easy considering how big of a piece this is. 4 bolts and BLAMMO! All was good!





Working on the torque arm install now and just waiting for my 9" to show up

I think he meant how it takes almost every tool that you have to complete a mini tub job.
