Re: "Rice Rocket'
Ok, not much progress lately because the weather snowed yesterday and short sleeve weather today!!!
Picked up a swaybar from a pal parting out a truck brackets/bushings/bar for 15$! its only the 1 1/16 unfortuantely its from a 3/4 ton truck.. gonna pick up new moog (if they make em) bushings from parts store. brackets dont look bent my trucks at stock ride height should I just keep these brackts for now (may lower in future idk though) painted wire wheeld inner fenders on bed, still have to notch the brace sill a lil more for it to fit, hopefully get that done tom. afternoon. wash frame lol and back of cab (dirty) Get bed on truck asap if time make rubber sets for bed to sit on get 4 bed bolts blast paint and install sway bar and buy new bushigns (moog?) call slot guy to see if slots are still for sale, buy slots/new back tires ![]() how much will the swaybar help my handling? with new bushigs of course. did i get a good deal on the bar? and it didnt have any rivits holding it on just bolts lol oh and picture of bed is before notched brace and before i wire wheel'd and undercoated wheel tubs it was actualy pretty safe believe it or not i discovered a lil rust on top of wheel well, any way to take care of this (stop it before it gets worse)?
