Awesome build, if you don't mind would you let me know what blue that is? It looks like Dodge's B5 blue pearl but a tiny bit darker.

Man this is gooooooood! Like McRibs good.

But like McRibs, it seemed for a "limited time only". But now it's back!

Hey there's an idea - try McD's for sponsorship? Many franchisees sponsor local sporting groups and their big $$ into Sprint Cup (?).
There ya go.

CRV AWD trans uses cables for gear selection, just like the H & F...

It's from a Toyota Tacoma, it's called "speedway blue" code is 8P1
Normally I wouldn't say the color but I'm repainting it so it doesn't matter :p

NEVER got a clean pass, ran outta gear at the 1000' mark when it had the ITR trans in it but still went 10.85 @ 132 with 418WHP

Check the fitting on the back of the welder. It held pressure fine before you got it. What're you doing to my equipment hombre?!

get a spray bottle with soapy water and spray it on the fittings. if it bubbles up it means there is a leak.

Not yet, I'll take some when it's visually worthy..
Nothing major, just welded in the wagovan rear crossmember. After that I'll finish up the diff mounts and mount the fuel cell.
