Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build

Dude you are just killin' it!
This is definitely going to rank up there as one of the most killer custom builds ever.
You will win custom truck awards out the ying yang with this bad boy when it's done.
This is one of the builds I'm on the edge of my seat watching.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build

I have been meaning to ask you for some time now and I always forget.
What did you do to reinforce the floor where you joined the two halves so that it wouldn't potentially sag over time?

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build

Great work. One of the things I regret not doing to my firewall was smoothing off the drip rail ledge area on the firewall. When they are finished and welded they look so awesome. Great work on it.

on this one the complete floor is stock suburban and it has 6 cab mounts instead of 4 like a standard cab.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build

I fixed the door, I forgot to take a pic before I bodyworked it. All I did was cut a section out of the doner and used it to fix my door. Then I shot some epoxy on it, still need to shoot the other side.
