dropped that off with ross and me and mike stripped the cab and prepped it for cage work.
i believe ross is picking up links from giant next week or so and he is going to chop the frame off for backhalfing.
But again, plans arent set in stone. i just told ross to do whatever he wants and take as long as he wants.

didnt take a pic of the cab cuz my phone doesnt have flash and it was dark. but have some off the housing and the coyote GUARDING the seats.

you copied my housing!!!!

i dont know what you are talking bout. haha. jk

arent both your trucks in the same shop? he probably just stole yours blk04

the housings are nice! cant wait to see how our trucks come out, if you end up racing you should let me chase for you!!!

and i dropped off some more parts the other day and he might have stolen my axle housing choice but not my axle, he couldn't use it anyway mine is bigger!!

whatd you drop off? And if I start racing it wont be till 2012. Unless I can be ready by next years RATR. But we'll see, if I can keep it registered than I wont race or not till I get anotger vehicle anyways.

I dropped off front hubs/brakes. the BMS hubs look tits! and i dont think my truck will be done till then anyway at the rate i am able to pay for this shit! its so damn expensive!

You should of done it in sections instead of all at once

yeah i started with just the front, but damn ROSS!!!!! lol oh well it would have sucked to have a stock rear end and have a crazy ass front so fuck it... what spline are you going to run for your axle??

Ha thats what I did for a bit tho. I think im going to do 40 spline with a full spool

im doing 35 with a locker so i can use it on the street without breaking everything.

any updates on this bitch?

No sir, hes gonna start going to town on it in a week or so

Hows it lookin??

Just ordered shocks but no real progress yet. Pablos s10 is taking a little longer than expected. But the cage should be getting started really soon. Once I get updates, ill post up.

Good deal. Ive got a 95 reg cab, itching to see urs finished!!

It shouldnt be too long once he starts going to town on it. Only thing is the truck is leaving the shop as a roller. so it will collect dust in my garage for a couple months.

Whatd you order for shocks??

orginally i was gonna buuy devins foxs, but i dont have enough money, so we ordered another set of foa's. but ill dish out the money for bypasses thru king or fox.

some updates:
last time i talked to Ross he said there is no more frame behind the cab. but thats it as far as fab work updates.
picked up my hubs for the rear axle from gmr on tuesday. They are schreiner/ bms hybrid hubs, 35 spline. Also picked up some harnesses from only1mikey.

Glad you were happy with the harnesses. Your build is coming along nice

Mike

Very happy, thanks. Now I just have to get my third seat.

And hopefully ill have some real updates soon.

Your truck is going to be rad. With the link, you're going to have to set up the front with some bypasses to handle all that gnarliness! Any word on the front clips?

yeah I know its on the list. ross is going to redo the engine cage and we are going to tab for bypasses. And no word yet, I need to get a hold of my buddy but its damn near impossible because hes always working or flying high. Lol.

well im bored, so i figure Ill update this thread.







Also have 3.5" fox bypasses on order, will either be ordering new coilovers this week and replacing the foa's, or going to buy the brake setup for the rear end and a cnc pedal setup.

Anything new going on with your truck?

He has new (to him) coilovers.

^This.
And a few pics from a couple weeks ago.




Im burnt out on spending money on this truck, so its been de-prioritized. Im sure once i have it back that will change but for now i plan on keeping it on the back burner for the next couple of months. This is my new priority...

That's still a long ways to go. End of the month right?

Thats what he told me, but now its not looking like it.

Figured this thread could use a bump. After about 18 months the truck was able to stand under its own weight and came back home. It left the shop unfinished and will be finished at my house in who knows how long.

Nice. Did you ever replace the front kit? Who's going to be finishing the fab? I would like to come by and check it out sometime.

no the front kit is going to stay for a while. i want to get the rest finished and enjoy it before i take on another headache. Ross is going to come up to the house and install a 220v outlet and he will be working on it at my house every couple of weekends. I may have Curtis (single cab chevy) help me work on it too. you can definitely come up and check it out, do you still have the xxx-8100 number?

That's good that Ross will keep going with it, there looks to be quite a bit of little things to do left. My number's the same.

Yeah we will see how it goes. its bittersweet having it home, now i actually get to look at money pit everyday, instead of not seeing it and not worrying about it.

dude its looking fuckin B.A! get to it, you wont regret it

hit me up ill bring one of my welders over and finish that thing

looks great man, question though, do you think the lip on the fuel cell can take the abuse of all that weight like that, or is it unfinished?

Its unfinished, like the rest of the truck. It would get destroyed if i left it that way, or atleast i think it would. We just wanted to get it into place for mock up and everything.

kinda figured just wondering
