Back on Track

Stewart  has been working on the new truck everyday for the past month.  He and Ronnie have re-done the steering and rear nessie arms.

Our first try revealed several problems with the uniballs on the arms- portions of the mounting on the rear axle hit the frame.

There were many problems with both the front end and the rear areas.  As these pictures show there were many hours of cycling suspension.  This type of suspension is not Wicked Sand Toys specialty… they build the Rolls Royces of sand rails, see the back cover of Sands Sports.

As of Jan. 29th the new truck is ready for custom headers.  It will be in their shop for a couple of days and back to work next week.  We could be ready for shocks and finally assembly.
