B2000 drift truck build

instead of fixing which side the nut is welded on... couldnt you just swap which side of the diff the panhard connects to..? switch it from bolting to the driver side and have it bolt to the passenger side of the diff...? then weld the mount on the driver side?

No because the axle mount is countersunk and will only fit on the drivers side. Its not a big deal to flip the nut.

finished the Panhard and mount. My little brother wants to paint the rod the same bronze as the wheels.

Forgot to mention, bought 2 new welders. A little 135 amp 110 mig to do stuff on the truck where the big miller TIG wont reach. Welding the panhard bar mount to the frame was its first use. It did well considering I was using 100% argon instead of a mix like I should have used.

Yeah I'm using a 100a mig welder on my trailer, at setting D (max) and .035 wire it's doing pretty darn good on the old mazda frame. Down side is slower spool speed, but I can handle that well.

Please note, I'm not as good as you are, lol. (understatement of the year here)

not bad man. keep up the good work

Well after waiting over 2 weeks for my tires to arrive they never did. So I called the company and they told me that tire has been out of production for about a year now. WTF, pretty frustrating. Oh well Im going to get some slightly taller tires now and hope they still clear everything at full lock.

putting the little brother to work



fender is welded in for the most part

I got sick of trying to buy tires around local, and order all of my tires here.



I have been able to get what I want {not just what is in stock}, and see the prices of other tires in the same size.
