good advice here! you can test this pretty easily with a simple voltmeter, the cheap ones work just fine for this. connect the black wire to gnd somewhere good, touch the red one to the small wire on the starter. 24V means it is getting the signal from the switch to go! work back from...

or it could be that the truck can handle the weight and that gives you more storage/cabin area on the truck when the trailer is back further.

J Bar still has the same angle between where it starts and where it ends, just gets there differently. if you draw the path of travel it will be the same path as the straight one. if it works, keep it!

wow! never thought of that! someone that knows photoshop could create one to see, hint hint.

Ferenoloquist would like that thread! he is a train guy!

with you only going from one side of the diff to the frame, this watts link setup might be the ticket for you. http://image.sporttruck.com/f/9200653/0612st_04_z+bagged_trucks_summary+watts_link_diagram_down.jpg it will give you the travel and the location to keep the rear end right where you...

another way to get it more level is to run it all the way across from the frame on one side over to the other side of the axle. the longer it is, the less is changes the angle vs. the height. I have seen them off of a big bracket right near the tire all the way across to the opposite frame...

The Gama Goat uses air pressure to keep the brakes dry and clean (somewhat) too.

you talked about that earlier, you decided since you didn't know exactly where the oiling was that it was worth it to spend the $60, I agree, you know now, but you didn't know then. I would have done the same as you, it was the right decision! now go install it, take pictures and post...

It looks good! I do think the exhaust should be a bit taller or bend it out the side so it doesn't soot up the ROPS or the back of the engine bay.

So, HiJack it back and post some more pics of the big guy! oh, I guess that would mean that you HiJacked your own thread? OK, post more pics of the FEMMT!

Nice!! you gonna leave it green or go Sand color? as most any of us will ask, PICTURES PLEASE! And, when you get a minute, talk to us about how it drives, what you like/dislike about it, what you can do with it etc. I may never get to own one of these, so your pictures and...

I know it would take a lot of work, and if the rear fender openings were lengthened a bit to match the fronts it would look good. That is a very nice Truck there!

I was thinking that, at least with all the tires, it can be towed somewhere.

Tap,,,,,Tap,,,,Tap,,,, is this thing on? Hey Patracy!! looking for updates!!!

not sure that is true now, I believe you are catching him!

This is a great thread and patracy is making me look kind of lazy, and I appreciate it, I am being very motivated!! I really enjoy the updates and look forward to each one, you are doing a great job!! Because of your inspiration, I have gone out and worked on my Goat! Keep up the great...

Why do you need the davit? isn't that a CRANE right behind it!! :shock:

one of the guys I saw last year put Zerks into his boxes and pumped them up with Grease. he says that they work great and keep the water out.

I think as long as you can lift it to put it in place, you do have a crane built in! you are good! I like modularity.
