ok
xmas is over, back to work for me. been working on my cab lately and started on install of my accu air sensors. put rivnuts in the frame. used these sweet clamps i ordered from choppinblock. they are available in a variety of diameters. also a old pic i promised before of my cab patch finished. lower drivers side. ive also been working on more firewall smoothing. almost ready for mud! then primer. also a top view of my front end. notice anything different about the frame in the front? |

Re: $hort Change
alright heres a few pics...
the firewall lower patch i finished ages ago, but didn't post a pic... also, my tailgate, I've blasted it, shaved the front and updated the handle to 88-98 and flipped it around back. my rear diff cover was rusty and looked awful, as you can see, so i fixed it, painted it and had a buddy stripe it for me. now the rear axel is ready to be put in the frame!! |
