Oh yeah, one more thing. Always make sure tubing is secure for taking pictures cause if it falls you might break something.

dobber · Jun 7, 2006

The thumbs doing good, its in a splint. Doctor told me not to work on my truck for 4 weeks. I decided 1 week was enough.

gettin closer

Ive been slowly slowly getting a little more of the rear tubework together. picked up an wider rear housing and cleaned it up. got all the link brackets tacked in place and tested it out, I might have to change it up a bit but it didnt work out to bad. picked er up and took it outside to work on it and enjoy the good weather. I will be running all-pros 6in long travels in the front. We got those on the other day and I am pleased with the height I got. It is lower than I had planned but Im sure that will be a good thing.
Heres a couple new pics.

gotrocks · Jun 26, 2006

what size tires you going to be using?

Paulie · Jun 26, 2006

your gonna hate getting that long link bolt out from the upper link mounts at the diff. but truck is bitchin dude

dobber · Jun 26, 2006

...

Yeah right, Im going to love the long bolt in back. It will double as a link bolt and I could bend it a bit and us it as a tow hook for some serious extractions

I will be running my 39.5 TSLs.
