Here is the front axle. All welded up and painted and ready to go under it. Knuckle ball gussets added, truss, diff armor, etc.
I'll update more this week as we move along. And, i need to get another camera for the shop this week too.

The front is actually done on this rig and I was able to push it out of the shop for a couple more weeks while I have some other rigs getting work. So, all that is left is the rear which will only take a day and the flat bed.

I am literally in the middle of another one right now too. This one is more of a street queen. 5" Springs, 3" Body lift and 38.5x16x15 TSLs. Its going to be huge.
man really wish i could see that one being built. makes me miss working at the shop back home. thought we built diesels. but still the fun of building stuff
