Re: Project "Nether~Storm" 72 swb
Thanks guys, You all are really making me feel good about this build!
I've been trying really hard to make this truck a one of a kind. And so many people like Mike Losh and the guys at Porterbuilt are making these dreams come true. I also talked with The guys at Accuair and we are working on getting an E-level set up for The "Storm"! Everyday I am so blessed to work with such great people like the afore mentioned and am so greatful to each of them for their support. So hopefully soon we all will be seeing this build really taking off!

Re: Project "Nether~Storm" 72 swb
where would be the best place to get 4-link rod ends? I've looked at the jimmy joints made by summit machine, but they are a little pricey.
Any suggestions?

Re: Project "Nether~Storm" 72 swb
Read thru your thread. I like your progress.
Here is another source for Rod Ends. I have had good luck with them in the past. One of my orders got pushed out and they called me and I ended up getting an upgraded rod end for the same price since it was a manufacturing mistake that my order got pushed out. Seem to be good people. http://www.midwestcontrol.com/ Here is a sample Chrome Moly, Nylon Race, 3/4-16 stem, 5/8 hole in the ball: http://www.midwestcontrol.com/part.php?id=2036 good pricing at a Qty of 10 at $12.74 each

Re: Project "Nether~Storm" 72 swb
Sorry guys for being gone so long. I have had alot going on. Just a quick update and hopefully I can get back kicking on this truck soon.
I have a deal in the works to hopefully get a Frame that already has been done the way I have been planning with all the PB parts, and MMW CA's + alot of extra goodies! So keep your fingers crossed and wish me the best of luck. This will jump my built to the next level and get me really kicked to the next level! Thanks for following along, my long and insain road of this build.
