Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
Nice numbers, going to be lots of fun. I've gone with Hedman 1 3/4" primary, 3" collector long tube headers. I like your 3/4 length shorties, what are the specs on them, and what make (look like Hedman's)? Your Dad will love it.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
Your ideas are great! This is the same truck I would build if it were for myself!.....A whole lot of wheel.......a whole lot of power........and pounded on the ground! while keeping things a little understated, simple and clean!

Super nice! Hard to beat a black shortbed with all the trim!

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
full offset means that he was able to get as much lip as possible. pretty much the center part of the wheel was attached to the hoop as far back as the wheel width would "safely" allow. the backspacing of the wheel will decrease the lower the offset.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
This was the hardest part of the build do to the fact that the truck was already painted. I had to be super careful. I like the result

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
I changed my mind on the red liner I think it will be to much for the truck. I have decided to go with black. What do you guys think. Still doing the red interior and satin red paint inside the truck.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
Yes, I think a black bed liner will look the best! The red interior will be awesome! The bed looks great by the way!

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
I would build a raised wood floor, put it on gas struts so you can store stuff under it, do a fairly dark wood and polished stainless strips (the smooth hidden fasteners ones from mar-k maybe)... I know that's far from what your going for but... I think it'd really suit the truck.
LOVE the truck btw. Posted via Mobile Device |
