also note they are 31" tires it sat about 2" high in front at that time

So, thats not exactly a reccommended method? It looks real good, but if i was to do that, i'd drive it everywhere, with it being 2 inchs off the frame, im sure that destroys you after a while.

tail lights?

87 dually burb 10-17-2009 07:15 PM

Re: 90 burb (( daily dragger))
 
not sure what I want yet for lights or where I want the tag
I'm thinking on putting the tag below the rollpan in center
and using cats eye led lights above where the stock ones were

Looking good so far! Why not put your plate in the recess on the gate?

87 dually burb 10-19-2009 12:28 AM

Re: 90 burb (( daily dragger))
 
the recess area is for a whiskey label mural like a jack daniels bottle
I just ordered a tag frame with lights that will hang below roll pan on a hinge
also ordered my tail lights and peep mirrors
if it warm up this week I'll start on the body work

did you do bag over axel and leave the leaf springs or what?

87 dually burb 10-21-2009 10:23 PM

Re: 90 burb (( daily dragger))
 
yes its a bag over even with the triple bags I dont get the lift I need I mounted the frame bag mount to high but will be changed in spring to a 2 link with a watts linkage with bag on bar,I had to use my front bag cups as spacers in the rear to keep the bag at a soft ride height

starting on body work got pass side done
finish rear and driver side thurs after work
will send it out next week for exhaust then get it inspected so i can drive it again been off the road since may

Ever think about running a sleeve bag instead?
They are suppose to ride much better than the double convoluted bags.

Re: 90 burb (( daily dragger))
 
future plans are a 4 link mounted inside the frame rails to run a 22x12" rim in rear thinking about going with a pro tour theme

Re: 90 burb (( daily dragger))

Re: 90 burb (( daily dragger))
 
Sounds like you have a plan, with out the snow.;)

87 dually burb 12-27-2009 08:40 PM

Re: 90 burb (( daily dragger))
 
also plan tear out most of the tub kit and mold in the 3rd row seat
not happy with what they did some times it better to just do it your self
lesson learned the hard way
