Thats crazy, me and my buddie built that truck. Its a frame off of a 91 chevy 1500, thats why is has the 4.3 V6 in it and disc brakes and what not. It already layed rocker on the 22,s the only thing it didnt do was the hood didnt shut because we didnt make new hindges for it. We never got to finish the truck becasue of some personal stuff, and my shop partner at the time had to sell it. Glad to see its getting finished, if you have anyquestions about any part on that truck hit me up, i can tell you everything, seeing as i built it.

i can tell you if it layed rocker when you had it it sure didnt when i got it, we had to notch the frame up front for the tie rods and we had to remove 2 spacers from the body mounts to get it to lay rocker, and change the front shock mounts, we also made some changes to the rear setup, shortened the wish bone and even though it looks kinda the same most of the tubework has been changed, i do have 1 question, whats up with the aluminum foil fuses?

and besides the way i see it the trucks not built,,,,it was started . maybe it depends on what someone calls built, but that truck needed a ton of work, ....it still does not exactly what i would call built

Did i say fully built!? or done? NO, i didnt, if you would read you would see that we had to get rid of it because of some differences. And the guy you got it from, did some stuff to it, he didnt know anything about trucks and put spacers and stuff like that. But if you want to try to chop me down that is cool, i dont care, the fact of the matter is, yes you have changed some things, and me and my shop partner at the time built most of it. So i really wouldnt try and chop me down that much considering every time you get in it to drive it is my work that you are trusting in. I was simply stating that that was the truck i started to build and if you wanted to knwo anything about it i could tell you. Oh and yes trust me, it layed rocker on those same 22,s when we had it, have pictures. But why get into a stupid tiff when really i was just tryin to help you out if you needed to know anything. Good luck bro. , learn not to be so quick to get defensive. Might help you out sometime.

in your first post you said it layed rocker, that is probably true, but your second post said he added spacers.. so tell me where i was being deceitful? all i said was we got it to lay rocker, if it makes you feel better i will gladly say.......WE GOT IT TO LAY ROCKER AGAIN. i asked you about the fuses so you might point out which circuit they are in. thats it, i can definetly bash a lot of the work that was done but i didnt, and i wont. you should take you own advice and not being so defensive, as far as the work im trusting, no offense its not yours. i wanted to share my excitement in having the truck with everyone on streetsource, not to bash you, i dont even know you. i dont even care to be really honest with you.. if you want some sort of award for starting the truck now that somethings being done with it, i would not hold your breath, after my s-10 was built i didnt see a post from chevrolet saying hey i built that truck........i say cool you worked on it, now let it go
