starting project-what do you think so far?

so billys truck is at the pinch or...? good call, seth. its all about angles, geometry, and their relation. lift wont be a problem. i think i would die wihout air...just the sound of it perks my ears...i hear tractor trailers parking around my work and i run outside to see if my friends are there.

yes billys truck is laying pinch.... or maybe a little past it cause of his bd, but its NOT laying rocker i know that. with your size tire your probably going to have to raise up the hood and fender.... like the black 1 on this thread. also if you get a 30 series tire for the front that will help out a lot. or you may be able to do a front end swap like a taco which may give you some more room... but i dont know.

yeahs mine is to the pinch i wanted a beefier tire. the tire now sits 1/4 of an inch from the hood when layed i didnt want to cut into the hood either but the toys will lay rocker on 20's

bad ass truck looks real good hope to see it aroud next year

thanks guys...hopefully you will see it around this year..at least on this coast...theres a small show here in roanoke in march and i want to drive the truck there...maybe not finished, maybe not painted, but driven there. my girlfriend and i just got a house, so time AND money are tight right now...luckily i have almost all the parts i need...just need time...and if anyone has a billet steering wheel to donate (or sell mighty cheap) let me know

I'm not sure if you realize it, but THIS year ends in just over a month.

taco nose will actually give you less clearance than a reg nose by a little bit if you place the fenders in the relation of the rear cowl panel and the front section of the stock fenders so i wouldn't go that route.

WISE ASS!! i mean this UPCOMING year!

im not going to use the taco front, ive got a 95 4runner front clip.

more...finished Zit tucks little bit...the fenders may have to be cheated upwards about 1/8 to 14/ inch so that we cab drag the shit out of it with no worries

how does this raising the fenders and hood work? wont that mess up the alignment with the doors and cab? im lost on that
