looking good evan!

 

Ive been kinda busy with the truck..

I bought a dimple die to do some small stuff here and there, and will have to say these things are AWESOME..so easy to use they come out clean look great and make the piece of metal so much stronger..




This past Sunday I got the truck moved from the house back to the shop to get welded fully and motor running..



So yesterday i started welding all the brackets and some tube solid..then played around a little..








I had about another 6" up travel left but didnt want to go that high just yet..So happy nothing bound up just was very smooth and big..the pictures dont do the justice..bottom of the rear tire was bout chest high..

this weekend imma pull the cab to get everything welded, sandblasted, primed and painted..

 

Love it! Why didnt you send me all of those pics?

 

Looking good!!

Painting the cage black?

 

looks great!

 

Nice work Evan!!

thanks guys -- friday imma pull the cab and get everything welded then Imma work on getting hte radiator in and efan

 

****'s weak! LUL!

 

I'm a noob here and builds like this are blowing my mind! killer work man, like everyone else i cant wait to see it done :) My uncle used to/still does race in the TORC series around the midwest ie crandon and whatnot, these pictures remind me of him in the shop fixing his truck between races :)

 

thanks guys!

 

Looks like that 3-link will work out nice. I'm curious to see how she works on the trail.

 

Wirelessly posted

Yeah man me too -- I was scared when I flexed it out making sure nothing was gunna bind up. Nothing did so I'm happy!!

 

looking good Evan! getting closer

 

well its been like two-three weeks since Ive had time to work on the truck. Tomorrow I am going to up to the shop where its at. I plan on redoing the front upper shock mounts, build the front truss between shock hoops.

I ordered around 600 bucks of stuff today for some of the tricks I have up my sleeve :) which only a few members know about but hopefully in a month you guys will see pictures of the finished trick..

 

cough bull**** cough

 

pssh you will see -- and then you will be like cough DAMN cough

 

haha

Im curious to see said trick

 

That's lookin real nice....gonna look sikk when its done

 

got some work done today -- no pictures tho. I tied the front end in a little more..got the fenders secured. With the narrow they were kinda all over the place..not anymore :)

also got the steering worked on. I broke two different pitman arm pullers tryin to get it off..well after the torch a big hammer and the third puller..it came off..

 

looks good! tell me said tricks up sleeve or die. also if truck is done in a month..find a way to bring it to the dunes or die.

that is all.

 

sounds like death is in order! haha

Looking good Evan! Just out of curiosity what ever happened to the bed for that truck?
