DropOut: Bagged & BD'd on 20's

Damn. I need to get busy on mine...

truck is looking superb! i love the bed work

who did you have re taper the spindle for the s-10 upper ball joint????

Can-do had the spindles machined, not sure who they contracted to do it though.

Any updates?

No real updates aside from the bed is mostly welded in and were adding a billet rear view mirror.
We were both extremely busy all through december with work but now I have 2 weeks off so updates will be soon.

Yay!

Sooo, we have been slackin a bit lately but the bed is built and fully welded now. Were working on smoothing all the welds out to get it ready for the body work but that part will wait until spring. We also talked about shaving the tail lights so that's likely an upcoming plan.




I wish we would have documented how many hours we have invested in the bed alone but since we didn't, now all we can do is try to forget lol

Anyway, The truck is going to sit for a little while though while we take some time to build the interior in my TBird project. Maybe I can start a build thread in the "Other Projects" section of the forum.

That bed looks great!

Do you remember what the wall thickness on the 1x1 was? I'm ordering some tomorrow and was going to go with 14GA .083". I know every design is different but about how much did you use? I'm thinking two 24ft sticks to get started.
