That would be AWESOME!!!
Not too big, maybe 2’x2’ at the absolute largest
Could someone send me the logo in a high res. format so when I blow it up to 2’x2’ it will not get too distorted.
I sent you a copy of the logo. Don’t pull the trigger yet. I was only guessing on the size.
ALSO, the torsion axles have arrived:
OK just let me know what size. I am thinking about doing it on aluminum so it will not rust.
i can swing by sends night to help put things together
I just pulled the trigger on a few more parts that we need to finish up the RTI ramp. George already has a set of lights. The only other material we need is a 6’ length of 2"x2"x3/16" tubing (hint, hint: can somebody volunteer to get it ASAP).
I wonder if we can register it now?
Order has arrived. I also picked up the length of 2"x2" mentioned above. Just need to calculate where the place the axle and throw it together. Hopefully some evening this week. Most likely Tuesday if anybody is interested in stopping by.
ya, give a shout and i’ll swing by
We have a roller!!!
We screwed up on the receiver. The hole we drilled was 5/8" which is the same size as the pin so now the pin will not slide in. We really need a 21/32" or 11/16" drill bit. Of course now that its assembled it will be near impossible to get in there with a drill. Maybe a right angle unit will fit, otherwise we need a bit over 10" long.
Does anybody have a 21/32" or 11/16" bit before I order one?
would a bit extension work…if there even is one out there
I have conical drill bits that run on 1/4" drive bits. We can get it and a long screw driver extension set into the area and ream the hole.
Drill does not fit. We need at least another 3" of bit length. Might be able to use a Dremel with grinding stone to enlarge the hole.
I plan to work on the RTI ramp (and my Jeep) Saturday afternoon.
This bit with the extensions for a screw driver will work. can get up to 3’ if needed
I have a right angle drill with and a bit that is shown above. Will that be short enough to fit?
Right angle drill should work. Total length including bit needs to be 9" max.
Ended up spending almost 8 hours working on this f’ing thing today. Capped off all of the open tube ends, finished up then painted the hitch and torsion axle mounts, drilled a bunch of holes. I hate drilling holes. Especially big holes that have to line up within 1/32" in order for the pins to fit through. Going to need a small grinder to ream out a few of receiver pin holes. There are 12 holes total of which 7 are good to go, 4 need to be reamed, and 1 remains to be drilled.
I also started a repaint job. Maroon similar to what’s in the club logo.
Some pictures.
End caps, hitch gussets, and part of the fender mount:
Completed hitch:
End caps:
Hubs. The fenders will be mounted off the angle bracket:
This is what we are dealing with for the receiver pins. Should have just found a big drill press and done it the right way. Now we get to screw around:
Remaining work:
1.) Deal with the receiver pin holes
2.) Mount the fenders
3.) Install the lights
4.) Finish paint job.
5.) Get it registered.

If you need a good straight bit grinder let me know, I have a powerful SnapOn one you can use.
Clearance is the issue. What’s it look like?
I measured the drill with the bit and it came out to 6" total. Let me know if we still need it.
