stripingbyakin's Crew Longbox Build

[stripingbyakin]

Okay ladies and gents, I think it's time for a build thread for my rig. I traded my '67 Longbox for this thing a little over a year ago, with plans for a comfortable 'bagged driver that would have no problem pulling my 25' travel trailer, and also look cool cruising a truck show. I've been collecting parts for most of the time I've had the truck, and now I have just about enough to get started. Here is a picture of what it looked like when I bought it:



And a rendering of what it should look like soon.



It may not actually be this low in the beginning, it's getting a 2.5" spindle and a 2" stepped lower control arm on a 265/35/22. If I'm not satisfied with the stance, I'll probably section the crossmember. More to come as work is done! Thanks for looking!
