check out the rodeo

Good luck man and the Rodeo is looking great, dont worry if you need a scoop not everyone has a narrow train of thought to discourage you.

to stay on topic tho..rodeo looks good bro..were u able to keep the rear seats?

What happened to my post and Lucky's post? Why not leave stupid stuff like that so people know who are the A-holes around here?

on topic: Yeah building a truck that not too many people do is a really hard process, but in the end you have something great. I hear Miles has got a bunch of new stuff in process right now on his Low ass rodeo.

Hey Lee, that lifted rodeo is straight axled up front, it's not really a bolt on lift kit.

It's not too difficult to do if you have decent fab skills though.

You basically strip the front suspension down to the frame(including all the ifs stuff), decide what axle your going to use, build front hangers and rear shackle hangers for the new leaf springs, and fabricate the steering setup, the driveline, and the shocks.

And Eric good luck with the build brotha, keep pics comin.



Thanks dude makes a lot of sense. Now just gotta go home... lol

as od now, it looks like i will be able to keep the rear seats, i was kinda worried i owuld not be abe to run them, but only time will tell, i have to finish up the rear floor boards before i can tell what is going on with the rear seats.

but yeah, its hard doing something that no one really does. i have been trying to pick peoples brains about it, but no one in oregon has a rodeo that is on air. the only person that i know of is sponge, and i usually ask leftsyder about stuff when i run into problems, and even he cant help most of the time. but eh, oh well, its a fun learning process.

Looking good. Im very glad I'm way past that point. Honestly, I probably wouldnt ever try to build one again. But heres a little more motivation..

hit me up if you ever have any Q's. L8r, Sponge

for some reason, i did not think that your handles were shaved sponge, that is one thing i am kinda not looking forward to doing, my reardoor handles because of the body line that they run through, but i gues all i can do is mess it up and and get new doors until i get it done right, but that is sick man, love the lolo
