Crap, I screwed that up. Hang on while I try to figger this out.

Raven Lunatic · 04-02-2008, 01:03 AM

Try this again...

Powdercoated everything, installed new pivot shafts, bearings, ball joints.

Air bag system from Slam Specialties... excellent service and quality, BTW...

That is going to be a nice truck. What are you going to run for a motor, trans, rearend? What color is the body going to be?

Ya, the white thing... I'm kind of anal about keeping my vehicles clean, so I'm thinking that having the frame white will force me to keep it spotless. Just wish I hadn't used the same logic with my garage floor... ugh...
