I seen it last night before the big storm.....Now I want it!

 

lol its a crap load of work!

didnt do anything but pick up a better welder, got one that runs off 220 now

 

Awesome!!!! Looks like its alot of welding. If for some odd reason I even would do something like this I am gonna learn to weld better. Wish I coulda helped you with something I could accually do lol.

 

tis ok we are at the point where we get just about nothing done everyday... takes so long on alot of stuff.

 

yup always does

 

just wait till someone breaks in and steals the transmission and tcase off your truck. just happened to us today. what i freakin set back, we were gonna finish it up this weekend.

get movin, the more days goes by that you dont get much dont, you start to loose interest quick.

 

lose interest? doubtful, this is my DD, goal is to be very close saturday.

 

looks real good!

you gotta bring that to the Indy Jamboree this year.....i would be you could win in the Modified class....

 

idk, i dont like to win stuff. my work isnt that good anyway

 

Damn that is coming along good I am going to steal your truck!

 

but the work you put into your truck is!

 

Being that you are getting closer and closer to finishing. I just see one thing that is so small compared to what you should be worrying about now, that I would recommend. Go buy a set of gap guards, or get splash guards for both front sides. With bigger tires in the future I'm sure, your engine bay is gonna be a mess!

 

i think he said he was keepin the 35s

 

Even if he does... it would be something good to have. I have noticed significant improvements, even if your not mudding, just driving in rain.

Oh and btw... truck looks awesome. Nice job.

 

ah im not too concerned about it right now. maybe later, right now i just want to get it out of the garage and down the road. lol

 

Then what are you doing on here get out there and finish it.lol

 

haha, I know that feeling.

Awesome progress!!!

Excuse the newb in me, but why is your coil bucket shaped with a pipe hanging down? I thought there was supposed to be the flat part there, up high...maybe I'm wrong, I dunno anything about coils!

 

cant, i need to buy 8-3 wire for the new welder so we can run 220 over to the garage.

the 110 welder just isnt going to cut it in several areas coming up

i need a 41/64 drill bit

i need some pieces made in the lathe.

i need some 1/2" plate

i need brake lines

i need shocks

i need power steering lines matted


lol that is just part of the list haha

 

i will weld a circular plate at the correct place on that tube and then cut the tube short.

i just made it long so i could have enough adjustment.

 

i think hes more aiming towards not having a flat upper coil mount. like you would have if you werent running the adjustibles. Which, is obivously why you need the new hoop with the tube hangin as such.

 

I hope you know we are going strait to my grandmas after its done to get some flex shots......(after you work out all the bugs of course)

 

heck yeah... or do you still have that big table top in your back yard??

 

1/2" plate!? What are you doing with 1/2" plate? Talk about beef!

 

welding it at an angle off the 1/4" plate to mount my yota steering box

I am going to drill and tap the 1/2 plate so i can run the bolts into it.

 

Oh alright... so the steering doesn't rip your frame to pieces right?
