Re: Northeimcustom '83
I like it yellow and with the visor, to be honest. I liked the stance it already had; laying frame seems impractical to me (at least in Pittsburgh where pot holes are almost a foot deep). Who am I to talk about impractical, my truck is 8 feet tall. Anyway, nice ride! I'd change the grille and go burn some more tire

Got the back all buttoned up, all new rear brakes, still need to weld up a shock mount for passenger side yet, and box put back on. Pumpkin hits the bottom of bed before axle hit the notch. Only like half of an inch tho... Any who...

Bag, plate, and cup installed. I think in the pic I have the 1 & 3/8" cup in and the bagged rubbed. So I got some 2" ones that make the bags clear perfectly! D2600 bags FYI.....



Mcgaughys 2.5" drop spindles. New Moog upper ball joints.



D52's slotted and dimpled rotors, and the doggie!


With the wheel wells in & touching.....
