Thought I'd 'test' another set of tie rods and ends. The natural white is more fitting.

very nice and clean. love the dremmeled edges. gives it a nice clean look. I like your decision to change the ball cups with a more nutral white. 1 question still remains. Does it glow in the dark?? :idea:

I like those rod ends much better. The other ones were too white. :)

Beautiful build! Those are Trinity Universals BTW. They wear EXTREMELY quickly, so don't fall in love with them :( . I had a set bitd, and they lasted 6 runs. From NIP to wearing apart. I didn't lube them, but if you are going to run them, I would definately think about it. Can't wait to see it finished. -Jeff

Got a few more items almost finished like shocks and wheels/tires. Was just waiting for a project to mount the Sees wheels onto. :mrgreen: Those are from the infamous treehugger from last year. I only hand polished them. Didn't realize that the aluminum inline axles were a different thread size than the original older axles. I have to re-thread the front knock offs.
