Hey I finally got my Chevy springs on and my BJ spacers installed...its been a long 6 weeks since I parked my truck due in part to knee surgery and mainly to lack of funds...But now all is better she sits on all 4 wheels again today for the first time in 6 weeks. I made the spring hangers and rear shackles (which I'll be trashing for a single shackle design) got a All-Pro u-bolt flip off pirate and got the springs at the junkyard, BJ spacers are from TRDparts4u. She'll be back in the garage tomorrow or Monday to weld my sliders on, move my rear spring hangers and extend my brake line then will be back in there in a week or so for gears and hopefully a locker. Also in the pics is my new rear bumper that I finished a couple weeks ago and yes I know my front end still doesn't flex for crap.

Get some mudflaps you redneck!

 

come one...don't you see my metal mud flaps hangin there

 

That looks sweet! How long are your shackles?


Just SAS it! :-)

 

5 3/8th upper and 8" lower...I'm going to cut the top one to 4" weld it to the frame and run my lower from there

 

Naw I think he should put a long travel IFS on the front.

And Mudflaps? Yeah he could use some, but he'd need some mudflap extensions for that height and flex!

BTW, the topper (Canopy) looks sweet on your rig.

 

uhh, wheres your shocks on the front?

 

good point... and i didnt even notice the topper was there. when do you get that?

 

Shocks? Who needs shocks? No seriously I'm still waitin on em I bought em but they haven't gotten here yet...rears I need to flex it and figure out how to mount em. Thanks guys, I picked up the canopy a couple weeks ago.

 

I've noticed your truck has come a long way since i joined the forum. Nice rig man, looks good.
