heres my project..

well heres my project... so far ive done yukon 5.29 + install kits gears front and rear,i made a custom console, herculined the floor, mounted some civic seats i got from a buddy

here are the old pictures...


heres when i started the bed bob....took 16inches out...

here is the 16in section out and the rear back on...


heres the finished product...







...the bed is bobbed 16"

still gotta fab up some bumpers, already started the rear, getting rid of the blocks in rear for a full spring pack...im picking up some 16" steel rims this weekend, im going to weld in some rim stifiners, the truck will be getting a lunchbox front locker, and it now has a welded rear, i think im gonna ditch the bodylift and cut the fenders to clear the tires. this truck is used for trail riding and ocasional mud thats on the trail, our florida terrain sucks! well thats it for now i will update as i get stuff done...

when I saw your bent up gas door it reminded me of this story I heard ....
This one guy and his wife would go around stealing gas from peoples cars by drilling a hole through the gas tank and drain it all out ...but the last time they did it , they left the drill by the car and the guy had his name engraved on it .. so they got his a$$..haha

well after i 200 mile round trip in the DD i picked up my new rims 16x8 steel wagon wheels, hope to get them mounted tommorrow, and if i do there will be some picks, by the "looks" of the offset looks like it will overall widen the truck by about 6" overall, so it should look good...
