Very nice! what brand of headers are those and hows the firewall clearance?

Man that is a sweet truck!!!

Slow Build · 11-08-2009, 10:03 PM

I got to go over and see this build in person today. Freakin sweet frame and suspension. He is obviously taking his time and doing it right. He gave me lots of good advice toward my eventual build. We have alot of common goals with our trucks. I'm really happy that he let me come over and check it out. Great guy.

Thanks lownslw. My offer stands, anytime you need an extra hand, give me a call.

Looks good

It sure sits up high, but I guess that's a good thing with a truck designed to sit on the frame.

tommys66 · 01-17-2010, 12:30 AM

Very NICE!

well it's been awile so i thought i should update what i've been up to.. I put some new motor mounts in to move the motor up towards the front of the truck a half of a inch. I installed my core support and my new aluminum griffin radiator. I cut out my old trans tunnel to install a high hump trans tunnel for more clearance. I will post some pics tomorrow. next week, hopefully I am going to start to run all the stainless tubing for my air ride.

Slow Build · 03-21-2010, 01:24 AM

Good to see the update. Can't wait to see the pictures.

jason65 · 03-21-2010, 09:44 AM
