Title: My Tintop Tracker Project
Post by: explosivo on January 29, 2006, 02:14:03 AM
I know I've posted about my project here before, but it's come quite a ways since I last posted.

Specs:
1991 Geo Tracker tub and modified frame
Scout II Dana 44's front and rear
1992 TBI 4.3L V6 w/ Painless wiring harness and stock computer
SM 465 with NP 205
Leaf sprung suspension: Scout II front springs in front, Toyota minitruck rear springs in back
6-point rollcage, tied into the frame
Tube front clip w/ stock hood


With the help of some of my buddies, it's now running and driving. We took it out for a test drive (and to clean the carbon out of it from letting it idle in the garage :D ). This thing looks really weird driving around :P

I still have to get a front driveshaft made up, the brakes plumbed, and quite a few small things tied up (make a dashboard, the cage tie-ins, a snorkel, some of the body rust patched up, etc) and it will pretty much be done.

It's ugly as hell, but, damnit, it's unique :D :D

Snapped some pics a few minutes ago. The differences between these pics and the ones I posted earlier are as follows: I added leafs to the front packs and added shocks.



Still kind've looks like a Tracker :P

44's would be way too big... 38" Swampers will fit it nicely :)
