Got all the final details figured out tonight and spent the remainder of the evening cleaning and ripping the frame apart and rolled it over to get the under side welded up. Will have pictures updated tomorrow!!!

Ran out of welding wire so all I have is destruction pictures. You can see I also started smoothing out the center section where I tied the rails together for the swb conversion.

I've been grinding and welding like a mad man. So I promise I will have updates this evening and tomorrow.

[builtbyKane]

Got a little grinding and polishing to do but its coming together.

[builtbyKane]

Been sick this week so that's why updates have been minimal. I did get one rail smoothed out and looks good but not much else done. Grinding isn't that much fun anyways much less when your sick. Hopefully this week will go better.

Thanks, you and me both if it wasn't freezing weather right now I would be going nuts having this truck down.

still need to fine sand the metal

[builtbyKane]

got a little welding fill left to do

[rhd_c10]

coming along real well.. rails look good

[builtbyKane]

Doesn't look like much done but I grinded and welded for 6 hours straight today and Im finally almost done with the bottom of one rail. Its starting seem silly to be so maticulous with a frame that will sit on the ground and no one will probably ever see but I guess it helps me sleep at night knowing its the right thing to do.

Really appreciate it. Even though I feel like I'm moving like a slug. I have been getting out there and working even during these 20 degree days so I guess that's something.

Well, I got the bottom of the frame done and it flipped back over. Also got the passenger bag plates figured out but ran out of gas in the welder so I did what I could to mock up the front clip with the passenger suspension installed to check clearence and to see if I needed to narrow the arms. Looks like I might raise the upper arms a little to correct some camber but I'm over all pleased with everything.

Got the axle tabs all welded up and added some lower tab bracing but with a little custom touch.
