Hey Casey, keep up updated on the 5Runner and Opel, okay? I want to see that pushbar that you were making, too.

alright, today i did the undercarriage of the 5runner. spiffy indeed. well, i also did the brakes & gave it an oil change. i'm trying to talk myself into removing the intake manifold & valvecovers for paint, but i don't want to get around to it...
what do ya'll think? worth the time & effort?

this things actually coming together. my friends will help with a minibike, that i'm building out of recycled parts; but won't help with my nova which i'm prepared to throw money at...WTF? well, they can't really help, but there is no set of vice grips that work as good as a friend.
Tommy (TIMMEH!! libilou)
these are off the same Haro the neck is from. (my first BMX bike)

Try again big guy!you cut all the stregth out of that fork,it will collapse the first time you put any real stress on it!!!! Go find some good roll cage tubing and build more of a triple tree arrangement,it will also be more stable at speed!
