A lil update ...well there isnt much of one except that it is getting a 1.5- 2 inch body drop. tomorrow is gonna be a big day for my truck. alot should get done tomorrow.

the back is done pretty much. just need to clean up some things. mount tank, compressor, valves, and plum it.
Tomorrow it is onto the front which is fairly simple. its looking good and moving quite fast considering me and bens schedules. thanks for looking and please leave comments im open for those such things.

yeah that is the truth..

all the parts for triangulating the lca's came in the other day.
NOW I HAVE TO GET IT DONE AND I DO NOT KNOW WHAT WHEN WHERE AND HOW.

THIS WILL BE MY FIRST TIME DOING TRIANGULATED LCA'S

do i need to wait till i get my uppers and install my drop spindles........any help would be great....thanks for looking

well me and the guy that was doing alot of the work had a mis-communication and the truck is at my house and it is far from done.

he totally screwed up the front. the back was supposed to be set up so that nothing would hit the ground besides the frame. but the gas and air tank are on the ground when the front is up and the back is down..

no big deal but just a little set back.

about 6 months and this will be done besides the drive train... i want a big ass diesel engine.. big one like full size chevy or ford status

THANKS FOR LOOKING

well guys a little bit of an update.

i am going to store now to get some materials for cleaning up the welds and getting it painted. I have to move a few things and make some brackets for my valves. besides that i am moving onto the little free things that are needed so i can save some money to get my uppers then 2'' drop spindles.

the triagulating isnt going to happen now. BECAUSE i ordered some LCA's last week.

THE REAR SETUP STILL NEEDS SOME WORK.

Overall this is coming along slowly

HAPPY THANKSGIVING
