Re: My 63

I'm going to have my parents bring my cab from there house in a couple of weekends just to put it on and see how it's all going to fit. I'm not ready for it, but seeing yours makes me wanna get it going.

Re: My 63

What kind of bags are you running on the back? Can you make a bigger lower bracket for the axle? I think you should have kept the bag on bar.

Re: My 63

Did you build your rear trailing arms? If so, what did you use for bushings?
