I cut out the rear section of the frame that began to rot. I am using part of the old s10 frame to replace it with. So I got everything pretty much to the point to weld it.

Going to drop the shackle mount down about a 1-2" to get a little more lift in the rear when reinstalled.

Also picked up ZR2 fenders with flares. Now my tires only stick out 4" beyond the fenders. Still awaiting rear flares.

This things a hoopty :lol

Fuck yea! Box gets cut tomorrow :thumbup

your directional problem is prolly due to the multi func in the column bein diff on the 2 systems . bein that the directional switch cancels the brake light out a side when brakes are on . long confusing story short lolol . look into that as i bet the problem is there

No problem there, all wiring is from the K5 including the complete column. All lights work fine, I just have to wire up the brake light switch.

I got the rear frame all done and welded up. Mounted my new gas tank and lines.

I cut down the bed today. I took 15" out and plan to weld the front part of the bed back on. I am also relocting the gas door to the passanger side.

I slid the bed on and spaced it up so the body lines line up. The bed will have to have 4" spacers to raise it up enough. I am still debating if I want to section the rear half of the bed, it looks kinda weird longer in the back.

I just have to mount my bumpers, make my floor shifters for the trans/ 4wd, finish up the dash and gauges, and fix up a new exhaust.

it looks insane dude,u gunna run any kind of skid plates?

Not that I really need to, but yea I plan to make a few. Its still getting a suspension lift as well.

they’re a nice thing to have lol,how much moar higher are u going?!?! i still need to come over and see this thing

You ain’t comin to my house fucker!

ill will take a dump on you!

I vote for sectioning the rear too. It looks good, but could look even better after that.

Going to see how I like it once the beds back together. I still need some bed space for my quad.

do like! things going to be sick

I sold those snow tires by the way

Yea I figured that, I have been broke as fuck lately.

Managed to get my Flowmaster 40 series mounted up yesterday before the rain. Just got to cut and weld my 3" tail pipe and mount up my RBP tip :thumbup

Hoping to get the bed all set and done this weekend.

you are nuts

lookin good… bed is gunna look sweet too!

Sectioned in the bed and began to tack it up. Have a few little things to finish up and thats it. The main thing being the shift linkage for the auto trans.

The bed still sits about a 1" lower then the cab. I really dont care, I already have 4 1/2" spacers raising the bed off the frame.
