hey whats up??

my name is mick and ive been in to wheeling since i was 14 and now have built many wheelers and done my share of broken parts.
i started out with a 1989 xj built on 44/9inc and 4.6stroker and on custom long arms and 37's since then i have owned 3 samurai's 3 toyotas
1 toy/truggy 1zj.
i am also in to racing ive built a 10sec crx and turbo rx7 and

as of right now i am a sheetmetal/welder worker for smk of tri-cities

my wheeler is a 1985 cj7 on 3/4 ton running gear 10/14bolt but the 10 bolt is broke and a 60 is going in place. it has a fully built 355 sbc tbi forged everything puts out around 425 at the crank a t-5 to a dana 300 with out boarded springs with way too much to list.
My plans:
swap tbi for tpi and run a wipple supercharger
60 in front and 4 links front and rear with air shocks

my racer, my first car 1983 camaro l69, it has a built 302 chevy with forged everything getting ready for noz and a custom turbo. just the motor is around 550-600 at 7500rpm

Like Grumpy likes to say....welcome to the nut house. We're all just a bunch of squarles around here chasing our tales.
