Shop Banter




We have been extremely busy with the day to day operations here at the shop, especially with all the planning it takes to run the 7S truck. Krawltex has also teamed up witha WEROC competitor new to the area. The shop will be sponsoring Jeremy Dickinson with his unlimited class rear steer buggy for the rest of this year as well as 2011 in the WEROC East series. All of us are looking forward to his success. Jeremy currently works for Michelin tires and formerly was an XRRA course builder.

As far as shop work goes... We have done a slew of Strand vans, finishing odds and ends on two TJ's that received AW4 transmission swaps, Andrew's SAS 1 ton Tahoe now moves under its own power, an Jason's early Bronco is getting a cage, Austin's 4runner has an LC Engineering 22RE about to be swapped in, while Rob's 4runner just received a 56" spring conversion with a rear bumper and sliders awaiting installation. We are also doing maintenance to Andrew's Chevy 2500 HD, and a small lift on a JK for a Jeep dealership in Burnet.

Next week will be a disc brake conversion on another ealry Bronco, wrapping up the Tahoe and an AW4 TJ, starting on the 4-link, full hydro and 5.3L Chevy conversion in tony's YJ buggy, hopefully making some head way on the FJ Cruiser supercharger upgrade, and the 5.3L swap and cage work on Mack's CJ7

Here's a few pics of the 4runner and Bronco cage
