That is correct. If you do decide to produce these brackets you would need to become a High Octane Member at minimum. Just so you know we do have a Suspension and vendor Marketplace here. We have Vendors that offer brackets for the conversion you are considering.

Thats what I thought. I decided not to produce them in quantity, and thats the only way I could make it cost effective and offer a reasonable price. I did work out a bracket to work with factory axles but my cost for plate and supplies was abot 70.00 per bracket. So it issent cost effective. I do plan on posting some plans of what ive done for brackets so others can make them or have them made. I should get the plan for a factory axle conversion posted this weekend for all who want to make them. Or at least take good plans to a fab shop and have them made.

I am getting ready to fit my cab back on, but before I do I am going to do all the jamb , underside, and inside of the cab coatings and paint. I am considering using the lizard skin products and I wanted to know if anyone had used them. I want to use the sound deadener inside the cab with a coat of the heat shield on top, and the heat shield on the bottom of the cab and the fire wall. Does anyone have any advice?

So I haven't Posted anything in a long time, been busy building, and saving more money. here is all assembled, then un assembled and delivering to paint

[J.kenton]

The body work process at paint has been very involved with nearly 300 hours in it now. heres a pic of the progress at about 50 hours

[J.kenton]

Now we are getting super close on paint, with just some assembly, and final buff left. I should have it back by the end of the month! all the interior is at the upholstery guys place and should be back about the same time. Ive got everything sprayed with lizard skin, and ready to put down some foil backed butyl. ( same as dyna mat just way cheaper at home depot) and start installing the interior.
