Project: No More Cheatin'

Post by PinkNoma on Sun Mar 15, 2009 6:28 pm

So I got bored with my truck this winter and decided that I wasn't going to cheat with my small wheels and inner fenders anymore.

This is when I started:









Got the firewall tubbed:



Driveshaft tunnel:



My first real pair of rims:












And now, I'm just waiting for my control arms to show up. I've got the interior back in, the brakes replumbed without ABS, and all the wiring all cleaned up under the hood. It'll still need a full exhaust, an alignment, tie rod notches, maybe front shocks and a million other nickel and dime things. The tranny crossmember is cut down so it will lay full frame front to back, which it has never done on the 16's.

Today's progress was finding out that the Suicide Doors control arms I ordered a week ago have a 5-6 week wait. ART arms are on the way. Kinda sucks, but oh well.
