Yea I like the way 2 inch looks if I ever cage a truck again for myself itll be 2 inch

ya i thought it was gunna look huge in this truck, but it looks really good

looking good, the other 3 link heims went out today, bushings will arrive at gmr in a day or so and I will get them out to you....

Our shocks from Sway A Way are about 2.5 weeks out, we need to start calculating unsprung weight and travel so we can get the springs as well... fuel cell by end of next week at latest

you want me to order more fat mat so you can finish it?

gmr's wish bone set up...





JSI Motorsports will be designing the wish bone on this truck

is that center roof tube sleeved?

Why dont you go with the GMR on this, it is already designed and super cheap

because it is not designed already talk to jason

it is design for the chevy

he has to get dimension and re design and trial for the ranger

frame rails are different width therefore differnt spacing between tubes and different length in plate and bends

no, just cleaned the surface rust/crap off.

as soon as you have spring rates figure out I can order them

Do you not want to see out your windshield?

Not sure about you, but it takes me a whole lot more than a 1.75" tube to not be able to see out of a windshield.

HAHAHAHA, My bad. I knew that but didnt even think about it.

Any idea why the windshield bars angle is so big?

I personally like the windshield bars wider at the bottom. It makes tieing into them with the engine cage easier and it doesn't really restrict your view as we have binocular vision.

The window 'v' is inline with the frame rails. That way I can come straight out of the cab instead of bending the tube around the engine which makes it super weak, especially in that area.

Thanks for a logical question instead of an absurd remark.

Nevermind

Thats what my pointless joke was about. Sorry for that. But I see that you said you aimed it right at the frame rails. But my next question is that when the 1.75 cage was in there. The V wasnt that wide. What did you do with that setup.

josh have you seen that new jaz cell in the sponsor section, if I go that route and get it with the slant would you still run it behind the cab or at the far back end?

how are things coming two more months, to complete cage and glass and roller so I can get it painted and prep, I think you will do it you are doing great. I have some good news to on some possible goodies.

My brother got a bedcage over the weekend from RRP and so I may need you to come down for the glass and shocks and cell. I will let you know, I should have it all by end of week or next week some time.

right now the coils are between Blue Coil Spring & hypercoil (they are double the price of others)....once we know the lb ratings I will make a decision. As soon as GMR gets the bushings you will have them 1-2 days later through mail, he ordered them over a week ago just waiting on them to arrive.

I may try and take a few days off to come up there and help out and work on my stuff as well, this would be the month I could do it.

I think I will hear about the hubs this week... and defiantely running the new uniball conversion over the ball joints with an 2.25" snout

Picked up the new glassworks unlimited ranger clip

I am not sure if these are new, but I had no idea Glassworks made these until I pick them up today, 10" ranger flat tops with lights cut out, they are so huge, i am going to have a j lo ass on my truck





here they are up against my old 6" fwx flat tops that are on my brothers truck now

My new race craft sway bar kit, same kit I tried desperately to win at fwx show, i bought them off of misery mts

my fuel cell should be here tomo the new jazz 32 gallon from dez nation and hope to get my coilovers and bumps from sway a way by end of week hopefully

Nice! Keep the updates coming.

so the bedsides are called big boys, i picked up an 06 header panel i still need a grill shell from an 04 or newer ranger, my fuel cell arrived today will get pics of it up later, as for progress pics, Josh is working on a drag car so looks like were a week or so out.

Lets see some of this stuff installed...

trust me I am dieing to see this stuff installed to, I have been spending every penny to get the parts for Josh and I have drive up there over 4 times I think, he said he has a project that will take this next week up but he says he still plans to have all the cage work, suspension mounted and cycled, and glass on by end of July. So I can get it painted and sponsors attached. If these new hubs get developed and finished I will be able to at least get it on 4 wheels.

Cab cage almost done, front end set-up, rear links set up, and starting on back half

looks good josh. keep up the good work. hahaha

Thanks tommy, I hired this new guy thats really kicking ass.
