Post subject:  wellsville- labor day
So, i barley got my rail together. But i made it to wellsville and had a decent ride. My dad cracked his frame, just like i did on mine. I had a few issues on my rail when we got there. Lost a brake pad, and blew 2 cv's due to not having the back spacer for the stub axle, letting the rotor to be loose and same with the stub. But we fixed it and got some good rides.

My buddies 4x4. Its a warrior chassis on a early 80's fullsize blazer frame. Has a 350 mated to a 700 r4 tranny.

Look like you still had a good time. We stayed home. My frame cracked/ broke like that on at least on tube every time I pushed it hard.
These Five tubes stopped all that. An x brace
Image
Two tubes to tie the x into the upper beam clamps.
Image
Where the two tubes that tie into the front beam clamps come to gether you can also add two tubes from there down to the lower tubes just behind the tie rods where the vertical 1" tube meets the lower 1.5 " main tube. My battery box is in the way so I left them out.
Image
The small tube gussets by the windshied kept the front hoop from cracking at the upper main tube.
