89' b2.2k, "ROTTEN" notch and 4link orderd :)

shit for the front.... check.



orderd two dominator db6's and two db7's along with a clear 7 rocker switch box thismorning. prob will order more next week too.

gettin closer to havin all my stuff

well, cleaned the piss outta the interior over the weekend, installed new bumper and replaced the carpet. been daily driving it, and gonna rebuild the motor sat. also having the head milled down for a little more compression.

oh and my switchbox and bags came in.

nice looking parts man when ya think you will get started on installing them

I would recommend against milling the head more than necessary, the head can't be milled too much, you may need to source another head in the future if you (g*d forbid) pop a gasket. The gain on these trucks is minimal by bumping the compression alone.

about the bags, jealous as f*ck man! Gonna be slick!

well, got the motor out,cleaned up rebuilt,egr blocked off,and 130a ford alt installed then re installed and running. runs awesom!

motor did show signs of nearly 300k for sure, all rods and mains were worn to brass, tons of carbon on the exhaust valves and pistons, and #4 piston had a broken compression ring and the ring groove was a bit wollowed out, (being a mechanic for a living this next part is going to sound horrible) but once we got the new rings in the wallowed out part wasnt to bad, and the cylinder wasnt damaged, so i just re used that piston.

did have the head milled a bit, nothing major, just making sure it was good and flat, lapped all the valves and all seal great, new plugs, new coil.

every gaket on motor new and now shes nice and clean and runs super smooth.
not bad for 10hrs of work eh. haha

head was off in 35min on friday
then disassembled

after trip to uncles machine shop , i got back to my shop @ like noon saturday and began head rebuild, got bottom end out and disassembled, ran a ball hone down the holes and rebuil it all...
engine was done last night, but got it all put in today. (tequilla is to blame for the 1pm start time today. haha)

As far as when imma start bagging.... id say give me till the end of M....arch and ill be balls deep into getting her bagged... right now though I gotta finger out why my 130a Ford alt wont charge...

well, got the alternator fingered out thank god... shit was startin to stress me out.. slapped my bubble hood on as well... yeah its the wrong color, but its motivation to get this thing painted...

and heres some pics for you whores

heres the door... also fixed the effd up rocker too...



no pic after i blocked it out, but its pretty much ready for primer, also the fender on this side, we rolled it and in process of fixin some shit, and the bubble hood i have sanded all down and its ready for primer as well.

more pics tomorrow...

Good work, at the rate I go it's gonna take me a year to rebuild my engine even longer to bag it.

BTW please keep this truck your almost as bad as Toddluck for finishing and keeping cars.
