yes nathan is making the dropmember to fit the tube frame, ya the frame was i learning experiance never would have though i could do it. More progress next weekend....

SchreinerM · 01-24-2008, 03:21 AM

I am absolutely jealous. If I recall from your first thread you are a few years younger than me (25 here), and already have built a frame like I've wanted to for years.

Never doubt yourself. You obviously have the skills to do this.

Your only 22!!!!!!!!!! I wish i started doing these trucks when i was 22. You got a hell of a good start. I thought i was on the younger side being 26 but your making me look bad

When are you getting your dropmember? Talk to you soon.

FnLow69 · 01-30-2008, 01:56 PM

Well time for another update...........
Since i liked the first rear crossmember, i decide to do another one. even tough it took 4 hour to make. Also made and tacked on the core support mounts.

Crossmember.....

And core support mounts.....(not the best pic)

Should have my 4 link parts in tommorrow. Plan is to have the frame done by the last week in february. Well shall see!

PBFAB.COM · 01-30-2008, 02:36 PM

I dig the crossmembers... just be careful, you may make a whole lot of work for yourself... now everything will have to have cool speed holes to match!

FnLow69 · 01-30-2008, 03:04 PM

very true and i have some ideas...LOL

nothing over the top, so will have to see.

Rokcrln · 01-30-2008, 08:39 PM

SchreinerM · 01-31-2008, 03:12 AM

I'm surprised you fully welded the crossmembers in. I'd be nervous to do that until later in the build. Then again I'd be nervous to even start a frame from scratch.

Crossmembers look awesome!

FnLow69 · 01-31-2008, 02:04 PM

there in the same spot as the ones on the other frame so they should work. I hope? lol

FnLow69 · 02-05-2008, 05:15 AM

UPDATE 2/3/08
Well i got the cab mounts on, there not done and there will be gussets as soon as I mock the cab up to make sure there all good. Anyways here's the pictures...........
