Whole lotta luv

Your other story sounds better, 12th gear though some whoops... :awesomework:

Due to work and vacation, I haven't got much done on this thing. Did make some shackles and got the rear sitting under it. Going to do some subframe work next. As it sits it's 70" to the top of the roof and the belly will end up around 19", I plan on having around 8" of up travel

Made some more progress today

Subframe

Still need to pick up a trans/t-case from B-rad, but hung this 2wd one in for now, so I could get an idea what kind of mess the front link situation would be. Fortunately, I'm going to have plenty of room for links, and should easily be able to hit 8" of up travel I'm shooting for. Mounting the passenger seat may be interesting, and I know you're all jealous of my plywood floor :redneck:

Yup, driveshaft will get some plate around the tunnel, transmission will get scatter shields :awesomework:

I love those things. for me it was going to be a luv or datsun. when i came across the datsun king cab and was sold. (great price) and it had the extra leg room.:beer::beer:

King cab would be nice, this thing isn't going to be the most comfortable ride in the world :redneck:

Been slowly tinkering with it. Got a good chunk of the cage done, started trussing the front. Lower link mounts on the chassis side are on, and the engine is mounted

:haha:

I'm going to rat rod a 36 ford that my uncle said he was going to give me. I just have to go to eastern washington to get it. This thing should be rolling by next weekend, so expect the new build to start soon :redneck:

This hot hooker strolled in Saturday evening.

Found this mummified mouse

Got the truss all cut out, and the lower links attached

 

[bobbed_84_toy]

I was grinding some brackets, I turn around, and this cupcake has appeared out of nowhere. Fawkin magic!

Got some more done on the truck

welp, 42's don't exactly fit in the original hole :haha:At full lock/stuff, there isn't much room left

 

[bobbed_84_toy]

You can see it a little mo' better, the tire is about 4" below full stuff.

It's funny how a little sheet metal makes it look way more complete than it is

[KarlVP]

HIJACK CONTINUES. Doesn't Thomas have an extra floor jack that I left at his place? The "blue" one that we picked up when I scored those tools. /HIJACK
