NOw on to the backhalf








and that pretty much it lol just wish i had the $$ to get the bed done right lol

 

now that is hot wade! love it.

welcome back too!

 

not a fan of lowered truck, but damn.. it frickin looks killer man!

 

Didnt you have that backhalf done awhile ago though? I think I remember seeing those same pictures awhile ago?

And how much of a z did they do? looks good and all that camber is sexy...

Someday I wish I can get my truck to that point..

Hell you'll only need like a 2 inch traditional bodydrop to lay body now that it's z'd.

 

looks awesome

 

nice, whats up with the rear suspension? what is that called?

 

frame work looks good!

 

welcome back man..

glad to see you kept her..

its looks really good man..

ive been gettin into the mini truckin thing...

love the truck man

 

thanks guys..yes the back half has been done for a while now.. but the Front has been done for maybe a few months.. i'm real excited to see how it does in the show.. it still has alot of body damage but i'm hopeing with how clean it'll be and the back half showing it'll do good none the less it's gonna be a huge party.. and alot of dragging. but thanks for all your kinds words...and for the body drop.. theres really no point.. it wouldn't even take a 1 inch BD to make it lay body.. if i do anything it'll be a 4 inch BD and it'll be laying doors.. but heres what is all gonna jhappen to in with in the next monyth of so...
Bed is going to be finished
SHocks up front
Edge Hood
and i wanta make an old school shifter for it.... i want it to be about 3 ft long with a skull on top of it or something of the sort lol

 

hey man looks like you been buzy but really put the bed back on it needs it

 

BD that mo..lay them doors and just dragg it all off instead of cuttin..

 

Nice pics!!! I am not a fan of lowered trucks, but I can really appreciate the work that you did! Nice job... BTW Dr. Pepper mmmmmmm.....

 

Ok. So the truck is looking good, but (remember this is coming from a guy who knows nothing about lowering) what does "Z'ing" the front mean?

 

Get some pics throwin' sparks

 

when you cut the front frame rails off from the front clip forward and raise it 2 inches hence making it look like a Z



Without a z the front wont lay as hard as the back so the back will be lower than the front when aired all the way out. Its the engine crossmember that holds us up in the front even when we cut and notch for tierods and such. Also dont need to bodydrop it as much if you do a traditional bodydrop to make it lay rocker.

 

Truck looks good, Hard work pays off.

 

well thanks for all the kind words... i'v got a few ideas that i'm gonna be doing..like an f100 dash with an out ragious shifter.... and probally will door it.. but vcomeing back from the show i was draging for a video shoot....comeing back threw waco....and well the upper ball joint snaped on the driver side.. so.. off to fix that and i'm gonning to be moveing the lower conrtol arms in an inch seeing if i can't pull some of the camber out of it when ridein low
