Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

Two nights worth of work here in these pics.
I raised the frame so much, I had to mount my snubbers on raised blocks. Later if I decide it needs to be lower I've got an easy inch and a half by taking them out. I even welded a nut inside the frame to screw the snubber straight to the frame. I know I'll want to play again!
Also I have my airbag helpers set up with mounts on the frame and axle.
These Afco coil-over shocks are a tight fit with the quadrasteer, but I managed to make room for them. I'm still working on the upper mount in these pictures.
I think by tomorrow I'll be done welding and can throw some black paint on. Gnande my helper will be home for Easter and I'll have him cutting the bed floor while I'm painting the frame. Maybe get everything hooked back up on Saturday and then be ready for family members here for Easter lunch to help me set the bed back on.
