Stay tuned...

 

Hell yes, my fav truck on here is going to get better!!!

 

stay off the grass sir!

hmm 150 front clip? heck i dunno

 

cant wait to see it

 

Somethings going down!!

 

Leave it like looks good.

 

are those steel pucks up front?

 

Aluminum. My cab is solid mounted.

Nah, those are too wide and expensive... lol... I'm just using up material that I have in the garage.

 

man this guy is all about some teaser threads!!

 

how is it?

would you recommend it on a trail pig?

 

i think when he says solid mounted the blocks are solid minus the bolt between em -- and i think its a prerunner thing cuz trent did this also on his desert runner..but i might be wrong in both but thats my stab at it tonight

 

i know, you replace the rubber bushing with a chunk of metal.

 

man glad that are ok, and that your truck isn't destroyed....good luck with the avm's....

 

I don't post that many teaser threads...

I would not recommend it for anything but a truck with a full roll cage. If you solid mount a cab with no cage its going to rattle, clang, and cause the body mounts to rip apart. Not to mention transmit more road noise and vibrations into the cab and your body. Simply, it would suck. Stick with rubber.

 

small Asian spoon stealing midgets stole it.... i am sorry there is a "Asian spoon stealing midgets" clause in your insurance

 

 

The cab on my s-10 was solid mounted and the motor was solid mounted....talk about an uncomfortable ride, you could feel every lobe on the cam in your seat

 

so is it done yet? where are the finished pics?

 

so with a cage its fine? i wasn't planning on doing solid mounts before a cage..

 

Seeing the rest of the truck this should be badass.

 

Where do you guys find all these funny things................DAMN!!

 

your whole truck is a tease

 

Yes, because at that point the frame is now rigid so there is no flex to go ripping apart body mounts and such. And with a cage if you leave the rubber mounts the cab will flex on its own and bang around on the tubes (possibly, if its tucked tight).

How so? Ask anything and I'll tell you, come to SoCal and I'll give you a ride.

It's just a tease because I don't typically pic ***** it up when I do something... maybe I should though?


And sorry Beard, no pics yet, haven't even looked at it since chopping it off... lol

 

Definitely more whorage needed!!

 

K, thats what I thought, thanks.


Because its sooo nice and too far away to come see lol.

not a tease as in "oh boy what's he doing now"... just more, "i wanna see that thing tearing through the desert"


maybe in like 5 years when my truck is worthy of the hammers I'll come out to Cali.
