Ok This is Dino's truck He is a lowered truck guy and decided he wanted to play in the dirt. Convincing him to go all out is a little hard But we are getting there.

front push bar with HID's look at that ground clearance.

Pandhard bar mount.

Plated factory trailing arms with some dimple dies.

Newer style brake res with a booster so this thing will stop. We also added Hd disc front brakes.

Sheet metal air cleaner.

more of the air cleaner and the shock hoops and engine cage.

Ok there it is. The truck will be coming back to the shop at the end of this week to get a mild roll cage and seats. Then its off to get painted army green. Hopefully We can talk him into some fox shocks and a fuel cell.

Yeah how much? It looks like you're limiting factor in the front travel are the shocks themselves. The angle of those A-arms is insane! How much more fall do they have till they are bottomed out?

 

[Grunion]

The front end is a fabtech kit from a 88-98 I really am not sure of the travel. Probally around 10-12 inches. And the shocks will not limit the travel. As for the drop it is maxed out on the bumps. Hopefully after the truck gets a few miles the springs will sack out a few inches.

Did you sell it?

Looks that way

Went to Parker on Friday. I have a boat bitch Yea:beer

 

[Outdrive1]

Did you sell it?

Pretty much. Have deposit, Andy took care of the guys loan, and insurance, all I'm waiting for is the loan to fund. You never know what an underwriter will do, so I'd say 90% until all the money is wired in my account Tuesday or Wednesday.

 

[Grunion]

From the looks of the pics it seems you have a few!

 

[Grunion]

truck came back to the shop for its next round of mods this time we bagged it, yup you read right I bagged it, we put a new clutch in it,and we added a cab cage. Nothing crazy on the cage but I am sure it will end up crazy soon enough.
The back of the truck ended up with 16 inches of travel while the front ended up with 12 inches.
