ben shadys truck

Lookin good, Ben. Made me reach for some tissue, Mang.

i kep the 80 i hve a 700 hp 502 and towing a 31 foot 8 foot tall enclosed tralor

$325 for every thing & shipping is a reasonable price. TSM wants $300 just for brackets, rotors & that don't include shipping. I pieced the rear disc brakes together on the rear of my Suburban for just over $200, but I used weld on brackets from Speedway Motors.

Thinking about it, Blue Torch offers weld on & bolt on disc brake brackets for the 14 Blots & DANA 60s.

Its about time we got some updates on you truck ben. We have been going through withdrawals over here. It looks good too.

I second the Ruff Stuff brackets. They are good stuff and the disc kit I got was 290 shipped from this guy

if you could measure it for me I would surely appreciate it.

Got some pic's of the mocked up rear bag mount tonight.. I totally forgot to get measurements of the notch.. I'll get them tomorrow








That's just mocked up.. Gotta box the frame before we can get the top mount in. I'll get more pic's as we go.

The sides are 1/2" plate and the center is 8" C Channel. We incorperated part of the wishbone link mount into the plates as well. That way we can use it as one side of the mount and then put a tab on to hold the other side of the bushing.. Should work better than having 3 pieces hanging off the axle per side. I think we are going to put a bolt in center gusset that will run to the pumpkin. That way we can unbolt it if for some reason I need to access my gears.

Whatcha think about the design?

Beef.... Enough said

Looks nice.

We are just tryin to build this thing as strong as possible.. My car and a trailer is roughly 8k pounds. But I'm gonna buy a 40ft gooseneck trailer later to pull the cadillac and my s10.. SO Overkill is the motto...lol

Looks beefy as hell. I like it.
