Hmm....IDK...but I think brake line (should in theory) be stronger, because of the immense pressures created by the hydraulics in the brake system compared to the small pressure in the fuel delivery system.

it is a little bit stronger. Fuel line is usually bigger in diameter though. Brakes make pressure but usually not immence lol. If you press on the brakes hard enough you'll blow seals in either the master or wheel.

lol (so I eggaterated a bit..haha)

could i get in on the cage builds?

The age of the BubbaTuber has begun!

yes it has

Nice! Hmmm BubbaTuber has a nice ring to it Maybe i'll patent that! LMFAO IDK on the fuel line or not? I can get 1/4"x60" brake line from NAPA here in town for bout $5 or so? Let me finish mine first then i'll start making ya'll some, Jeepguy you want one for a scaler right? Jeff what kinda axles would ya use for yours? And Travis how bout you?
I got some more done on it tonight but will post more pics when i'm done with the tuber cagework then! Later

It's easy once you get it going, bends are the hardest part. Mixing in the mounting points for the shocks and link mounts is a little rough too. Brazing is alot easier to do then you thought right? Chassis looks good, I like the narrow chassis, never been a fan of the wide full width tubers.

How did you know?! Is my fetish for scale rigs that obivous??? Lol JK
Fyi im using Juggy2 axles and trans.
Thanks
Zack

i think im gonna use jugger2's also and prolly tranny also

Thanks Ben, I haven't brazed none of it so far, all mig welded, accually just tacked in place! I've tried to copy everything i've bent up for it so far!

Scale it is then Zack!:joy: Oh yeah lmk when ya get the axles and tranny ready too, and i'll let ya'll know when i'm ready to start your guy's tubers!

Travis, lmk when ya get the axles and tranny

Well it's close and i've got a bunch a braces made up and ready to weld in place but might not get time to weld in till the weekend so here's a little teaser of about what it'll look like!

looks like that madforce came in handy

Very nice! I can see it's coming along well.

That looks sick! Great job so far!

Wow!!!

Sure did Mike, it might serve 2 projects well, this crawler and a top secret one nobody know's about yet, in time though!

Thanks ya'll, will hopefully git-r-done this weekend!

i thingk im gonna order axles this weekend. you think i could slap a highlift body on it? or what would i need to do a scaler?

I think ya could use a high lift body, really any body ya want i'll base it off of it and the axles? Shouldn't be a prob!

where can i get a high lift body?

ebay

way to much
