Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

no no no ....really i am honored that you chose them to put in your project !! i hope many more people make the same choice !! THANK YOU....i need about 40 more people to make the same choice, so i can come out of this 1 yr plus inner fender project..LOL

Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

Love the look of the Slosh Tubz, I may have to consider them since I am going to be removing my engine soon, Now may be the best time. Is there a thread dedicated to them?

Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

man those are gonna look good in there..when are you going to install them?

Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

I'd like to do it right now!!! However, I'm trying to get my house ready so the renters can move in this weekend. I have quite a bit to do still and i have to load up my garage into a POD to move all of my tools to SoCal. So...I need to try to get them on by Sunday night or I'll be doing it with limited tools/space. Wish me luck!! OR....one of you guys can come bolt them in for me.....:lol:

Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

i wish i was there i would love to help you put them in, cant wait for everyone to see them in a complete vehicle !! as for a dedicated thread, no , just check out my build thread, thanks

Re: 72 Suburban Build

If you want to see the whole process, take a minute and go through his build thread, its pretty cool.

Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

If you want to come to James Island your welcome to bolt them in at my place. I'll even let you use my wrenches and air tools! Then I can get to drool over your burb for a while.

Don't let the tubz blow away in this hurricane we're having!!:haha:

Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

I don't know who the heck I was trying to kid. There was no f-in way I wasnt going to bolt these bad boys up!!! Passenger side...DONE!! All bolt holes lined up PERFECT. I'll snap a few in the daylight but had to give you a teaser.

Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

I may take you up on that if I run into any problems while I'm still here. I appreciate it!!!

Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

SWEEt...i love it !!

Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

Did you have to cut the uppermost fender brace?
Or were they already cut?

Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

that was already cut i made these to fit without cutting that, however if you needed to cut that for clearance it would be a very easy modification to make the tubs come on over to meet the fender

Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

You don't have to cut it at all (Mike can verify this). I cut them before I knew about him making them. I think that he actually designed that part so you WOULDNT have to cut.

Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

.....you beat me...

Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

SORRy i am pretty excited about seeing the first set out in a running and driving vehicle..i prob wont be able to sleep tonight...it really is the first step of a dream coming true for me ! i have always wanted to do something like this....I JUST HOPE IT CONTINUES TO GROW !!

Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

Snapped a quick one with both in. I need to figure out why I'm touching on the outside of the drivers side tire. It was a problem trying to get that side aligned too. I need to figure out if the frame is tweaked or something. There is plenty of room above the tires though.

Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

No problem. Let me know anything you need.

The inner fenders look great.

Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

Is it touching where there is a step in the top of the sloshtub?
What's the backspacing on your wheels?

Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

sent you a pm, if there is an issue just let me know , whatever it is i will get it taken care of

Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

any updates on this beast, when you coming to the best coast???

Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

Whipped up a quick catch can. All fluids changed and all bolts checked. I leave on Sunday for the 400 mile bolt shaker run to Norfolk, VA. She's running pretty well so far.

Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

Hey Chief what is that made out of? Looks clean. Way better than the bulky plastic thing I have

Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

paint it primer red and borrow some 1" stensils and paint "DYNOMITE" on it ;)

Re: 72 Suburban Build
 

that would be funny lol, may have to steal that idea for my burb since it would kinda fit in with the army theme i got going :)
