SMUDDIN!!!
FINALLY!!
More updates! One pic is not enough to fill this crack addicting build.
New job has eaten up any of my free time. Just got the coil overs thursday. Going to try to get them mounted up and maybe roll that fat bastard outside. Im moving to a new shop, in the next few weeks. So shes gotta get put on a trailer and that wasn’t gonna happen unless it had a little more flex in her step.
Made some temporary upper shock mounts just to see how far the springs would compress. Definitely coming down at least 6" but I figure i’ll post these anyway.
Ha, we forgot he was still in the bed… opps
tried editing this picture but I just stays sideways when I post it? wtf oh well, This was SCETCHY AS SHIT! it was 46" from top of axle to bottom of frame to get them to fit lol… I was not a fan… took this picture to explain to my wife how I died.
The lighting in my shop blows, sorry for the shitty pictures. New shop in the next few weeks… so im sure a couple of the south towns ppl will see this on a trailer.
In to see this done. Never noticed the thread. Looks like a beast!!
Will it fit out the door?
Holy shiettttttt this is totally a monster truck that’s for sure
Same here. This is incredible.
If you ever sell this Will, I’m buying it!
Its been a really slow process, work schedule eats up all my time… and im getting to point where I need the expensive parts. So im shooting for spring. (as much as id like to take this thing out in a good snow storm lol)
Im sure the wife would love this in the backyard…
Right now it just fits out a 12’ door. But this height is temporary. I just wanted to see how much compression the springs actually had (after they settled). whipped up a few temp shock mounts in cad and tossed them in. Letting the truck sit like this for a week then go back and recheck the height. Then bend up some shock hoops and burn them in. It’s not even close to a transportable height at this set up Im right around 6’, I cant touch the headlight and cant jump to reach the door handle lol… I plan on coming down at least 6" …
I assume this isnt street legal?
Nope
Sweet fucking build. What are the plans for the power plant?
No not street legal… full hydraulic steering, and the brakes will be mounted on the transfer case pinion.
Twin turbo Cummins, extra obnoxious. The drive train is already in, minus the primary transfer case and turbo setup. Waiting on some $$ for the tcase. That purchase is gonna hurt.
FUCK IN THE MUDDDDDDDD!!!
This thing done yet, I think this is awesome!
i heard will was selling it? say it isent so!
don’t turn to fast!.. you’ll just tip over like every other truck on stilts!!!
cool fab work!
