Got a lil more done today. I think there will be enough done tomoro to test drive around the block

Fenders finaly showed up from Glassworks unlimitted (about a week and a few days late) o well at least there here and my painter buddy said he would paint them this weekend.



Put in the 1" differential drop spacers.

Mocked up secondary shock hoop for placement and fit.

Removed secondary shock hoop and finish weld.
(it was too hot to paint and put back on the runner so were gonna do that tomorow)

... now when this thing is streetable i might know of a place in clackamas that you might be able to give it a little bit of air time lol the runna might take the hit a wee bit better than a stock height 2wd standard cab ranger with blown out shocks lol ill have to try and find the video we have of it, we hit the lip at about 60-65 and ya im suprised we didnt rip the oil pan off the motor, it shaved the drain plug down about half way and stereo flew out of the dash and hit the rear window lol
