wow quick good updates

Looked like a cool truck and now it's gonna be bad ass!!! Great upgrades!

Looking good! Good choice with Kibbetech, his work is always top notch.

Nice! I was wondering when you'd post up some pics of this thing...

Thanks. Kibbe's work, in my opinion, is some of the best out there. I built this truck in the first go-around - Camburg long travel kit, Deaver 64" underslung kit, caged front to rear w/ 1 3/4" DOM & 4130. I started cutting the truck up at Kibbe's shop in April, took about a month to gut it. Stripped it to the cab and the frame for a complete rebuild. This is a sister truck to James McAvoy's yellow Ranger Edge.

Got the dash mocked up this week and put a new cowling over the windshield wipers. Waiting on billet fender washer tabs from Camburg to bolt it in.

I'm usually not a huge single cab fan but this thing is rad! Nice truck man!

Thanks, personally I like the way single cabs drive and handle.

I finally got my four link pivots from Camburg and got them mounted on the truck. Mounted the tranny cross member and tied the cage into the cross member from where the door bars intersect.

Just waiting on more parts to be laser cut.

More up dates soon

I got my motor, computer and shortened harness back from Juanco and got the motor and tranny mounted in the truck today. Kibbe finished welding the trailing arms and sheet metal yesterday.....

Don't miss anything.....

More updates soon.
