That is some nice work on the bed, your body shop does great work! What interior color are you going with?

Have you decided if you will make it to the Nat's?

**67cheby** · 09-04-2009, 02:40 PM

the outside will be silver , with red interior, i hope i can get to the natls if i do im sure it will be without my truck !!! hopefully we will get to start the step notch this week

72BlckButy · 09-04-2009, 02:52 PM

Either way, hopefully you can make it.

**67cheby** · 09-05-2009, 09:51 AM

just reading some of your thread, nice work BTW, I was wanting to know why you had to move the trailing arm crossmember back an inch. is it to center the rear wheels while laid out? just curious

Spray-Bomb · 09-29-2009, 02:03 PM

Looks good bro, I raised mine 6", but Im thinking about going more before I weld it all up, as I have plans of being lower in the future

Are you planning on Z'ing the frame ???

**67cheby** · 09-29-2009, 02:09 PM

no i am not zing it, this is about as low as i will get. any pics of your bed ??? i woul like to see it , are the fenders touching the bed lip ??

72BlckButy · 09-29-2009, 02:19 PM

Nice work!

Spray-Bomb · 09-29-2009, 02:24 PM

I havent finished my bed yet, but when done, the fenders will most likely be touching & I plan to make my own instead of using the stock ones

Heres a link to the page my bed mods are on
