We just got done having a 3-rail fence with horse wire installed. $10K for 325' plus two gates. The contractor told me the materials went up nearly 30% and lead time went out over three weeks a few days after he ordered our materials.

Morning Bear!

LOL, that's funny, Ohio!

I'm swapping Frankie to 5 lug... going to start today, I hope. I have an appointment to get my tires mounted and balanced this morning. I took the calipers and threw some VHT caliper paint on them.



When I started to paint the drums, I noticed this defect. I literally took it out of the box, cleaned it up and threw paint on it.... THEN it was noticed that it had this defect. I bought them in February of 2018 on Amazon, and they are still going to refund me over three years later! Looks like someone tried to put a hole in the wrong spot, then corrected it. I'm not about to use it though.

That's a strange mark on the drum, White. I'm surprised you're not swapping over to discs in the back.

I'm just using things that I already have. Number one because I have it. Number two because I want to get rid of all of my boxes of stuff laying around. I can always change it later after I get the axles in.

I have a set of 3.31's and also some 3.73's sitting here. The direction I go there will depend on the trans I use. Really looking at the Holley setup with a 4 speed controller.... BUT, my Buddy is building my T5 right now, LOL.
