Re: My Crew Cab Short Bed Project, AKA "Project Destiny"
You could always sell your body. They'd either pay for it, or pay you to go away. It's a win win!
 At least you don't have a commercial charge account at O'Reillys and Advance Auto... I'm probably gonna get in trouble.

Re: My Crew Cab Short Bed Project, AKA "Project Destiny"
When we let the truck down, the axle was on the stock bumpstops. We ground those off, and had plenty of room. I am pretty sure I have 56" springs (the rearmost bumper bracket bolt is behind the hanger), and have 8 leaves per pack. They are pretty stiff, so it drove fine like that. I did tehe notch out of self defense, since I had it.

Nice work Joe! Glad to see you got your rear end squared away. Did you end up cruising it to Tulsa?

No Tulsa trip, I got done with the truck @4pm Sunday. We are going to try and go this coming weekend if Randy is free. Quote:
Yep, I drove it this morning I like them! I think I have a driveshaft vibration though, guess it might need the whole thing balanced. Quote:

I might be cheap and easy, but I am not free! I should be available this weekend. Next weekend the wife is going out of town (to go see Garth in Vegas, girls weekend thing) and I'll have the boy to entertain all the time. But fairly sure this weekend is no issue at all.
