Well my Kads cant use the aircleaners that came with them because of my rear cage.
So I decided to make some.
First 2 attempts failed.
Third time was the charm.
Now I just need to finish the other side and fab a way to hang the pod, and a hold down for the air box, and paint......

Ok, got the truck bed coating finished on the inside and out of the pans this weekend, put the roller pedal in and modifed the front stop for more travel and put a washer in for slop. Since the pedal assembly was out I put some welds and truck bed coating on the brake pedal.

Tired of welding that sheet metal, got some resin and mat material, wire brushed it good, treated with Locktite Extend rust treatment finishing the rest with 2 or so layers of glass, and bedliner inside and underneath.

INTERCO called back and tried to sell another pair for $103 ea. BAIT AND SWITCH!!! Their cust service sucks if you can even get thru to them!!  NO TIRES FOR ME  |
Thats BS. Is that regular price? If those tires are still posted next week, then call them back to let them know that the BBB will be calling next. What they did to you is illegal. Plain and simple. |
