Vengeance, part III

Looking good Jerry...a little extra clearance is a good thing...
Thanks Ed!

I spent a good part of the night driving it around. I also got the steering as good as it likely will get without major surgery.

I can now turn pretty much equal amounts right and left. And, I gained more left than I lost to the right. Using the full stroke of the ram now, and have something less than 1/4" off the knuckle stops on each side.

Now to work on the rubbing. That may take some work, and I don't want to give up much if any wheel travel, since it works so well.
 
Another day, another project.

I mounted the 5th tire today, and got it on the carrier without giving myself a hernia.

Had my tractor here, so the breaking of the bead was easier than the first 4.

I also got the 4 point harnesses today, and got them in, for those times when I should know better, but don't 😁😁 I left the regular seat belts for normal driving.

And I mounted the Hi-Lift in the roll bar, ready for use.

I also flexed Vengeance with the skid steer. But didn't want to climb out under the raised boom, so just took a couple of pictures.

Going to try out as local trail or two tomorrow, get a feel for the 40s

You gonna lose those ugly ass rear flares or keep them?
I kind of like them.
I am not a fan of the fenderless look, and don't know what else would fit there.
I will say, with the cool look on the front, the rear don't match, so if there is something that would match up, I would consider a change.
