new update 5-24-09
i havnt been workin on my truck for a while.
i had the metal for my back half for quite a while now. and i decided to work on it now.
this is as far i got so far.
got everything tacked together
then me and my uncle where workin on a part for his tractor. he was grindin a part he needed welded. and we went to the other shed to weld it. we were up there for 20 min. and all sudden i heard a loud bang...
came back to the shed where my truck and other machinery is and i could see smoke comin out of the slidding door. so we all took off runnin to the shed and seen the that work bench and the oxy acedline torch was on fire..... and there where cans of paint and pentrating oil blowing up. so he took off runnin to call the fire dept. they called 3 fire dpt's out. cuz the lady on 911 asked how big the shed was and he told her is a 90 by 210ft shed..... she never asked how big the fire was.... but anyways. the fire dpt got there and put the fire out with foam.... what a fuckin mess..... my truck was coverd. they dumpd all the work benches off. and they got foam every where and i havnt gotten a chance to clean it all up yet. i will prolly be goin out there tomarrow to do it. and i will take some pix.
heres some pix of my frame. it is narrowd 4 1/2 inches on each side. i dont have it welded to the frame yet yet. but i will after i clean up the mess from the fire. also i cut the fame off infront of the rear cab mount so i will need to make a new one. or modify the old one.
