UPDATE! Man 'am I a busy boy! I need to start waking up earlier though, lol. I be sleeping in till almost friggin' noon! I could be getting more done, but, eh, not much I can do when I'm a zombie! lol...

I really cracked down and got on her hard today! I'm hoping to have this done REALLY SOON! Only downside is that I gotta get the bed bodydropped and not sure how long that will take. I would like to get it to a wedding this Monday! Doubt it though..

WELL! I Got the frame notched out and plated it for my fuel tank! I had a hell of a time yesterday ripping out the last of the spare tire crossmember and rear leaf spring perch. I ended up tearing some of the frame as I was ripping it all out so I had to patch it up a bit, LOL!

I could'nt believe how thin these frames are! I was also blowing right through it too with my welder on the C setting!

Anyhoo, got some crossmember supports for the fuel tank in as well for extra support. I fabbed up a crossmember for the air tank and got it sitting at a decent height with the fuel tank. HOPING my pressure switch wont be too tall, lol..

THEN, I got some plates fabbed up and welded in for the compressors! It was a last minute thing too..

I'm not too sure how much left I got to go, lol. I can't even keep track of myself! I'm just all over, haha.

PICS for you whores!
