getting it dropped off at work?

 

yep getting dropped off at work 7'x4'x18" palate.

shipping says May 02.

if that happend, my bed is headed to ottawa, im getting the new bed for my truck to cut apart, and the bedsides will be on next monday. lots of welding, lots of fab.. limited time is an overstatement. thank goodness im doing well at work right now...

 

As long as the order arrives today, this weekend is going to be epic! ive picked up the hangers, swap kit and straps. and a few before shots.


my spare tire ready to go


expo axle waiting for the swap


body line to tire shot


flare shot


ride height shot


and a much better pic of the gauge spot i made.

 

Must be nice to be getting your parts soon IM still waiting on BTF..

 

Blue torch or those two brothers from DR?

 

Two brothers on DR...Brandon just need the axles finished up but it takes some time I guess hope ur parts show up Nate looking forward to what comes next

 

no parts today. they unloaded off the train today which is a plus. and yes, BTF-fab.com blue torch is kinda like fabtech, nothing fancy

 

Yesterday sucked.

We swapped beds, my bed is now headed to Ottawa to get traded with a old red bed and some cash. the part that sucked was when the return line on the top of my fuel pump sheered off this morning...

so right now the truck is not drive-able, I am waiting to hear if it is covered by my warranty or i am buying a $400 pump.

 

why are you swapping beds again?

 

im giving a friend my bed for his one with side damage and $100 cash. since im cutting off whats damaged, it puts me ahead of the game money wise for painting the bedsides. plus ill feel fine with chopping it apart. dont think i could do that to my stock bed... lol

 

thats sucks! yeah that's why when mine went out i just decided it was 400 towards a fuel cell setup.

 

id love to, but id never get the truck to pass e-test again.

 

Use a bronco 2 tank. They fit between the framerails and had what you would need to pass e test.

 

i would. one thing however, the truck is still under warranty, and i ordered bedsides with a fuel door.

for what its worth, ill just drop in a pump through warranty and call it a day.


in better news my palet has FINALLY been released by CN railroad. This means i get it monday!

 

well, now its tuesday. FFS, these guys cant even figure their own schedule out...

i ordered my new fuel pump today, frickin $400 i wanted to put into shocks. that will teach me to take my time and not rush things.



the truck is just sitting around getting dirty at the moment.

 

I was hoping to open this thread up and see shiny, non-fuel pump parts

 

i was hoping to come to work and see a 7ft long skid covered in epicness. today has been a letdown.



i will have literally zero testing time, i wanted these parts april 10th... i have to order shocks without cycling my leafs, i am not going to have the frame boxed in time for SL, ill have to do it when i get back. i will take plates with me so if i get a crack it can be patched.

 

rear shocks are ordered. went with a 2.0x14 remote resi with the 40/60 valving. pick them up may 16th. also ordered my flex line for the expo axle.

 

This is sig worthy IMO.

 

haha me too,bummer dood. i doubt you'll have frame issues at all. if mine is ok after the crap its been through yours will be fine.

 

new bed is on, new fuel pump is in, truck runs and drives! well i think, havent taken it out yet just fired it up.

this week/weekend i should have half the work done i hope.

 

nice! keep it up!

 

other then a possible valving issue on the shocks, everything is here and looks great!









this number should be 60/40, so im curious if they had a stock set revalved. it seems to compress and extend pretty similar.


build starts tomorrow morning.

 

I'm guessing you got all that off the shelf?

It seems really fast to get that within a day

 

i ordered these parts in january, shipping had them delayed over a month. everything was built to order.

good news is the stamp on the shocks was the old valving, they just re-did a new set.
