Re: my build thread
The plans for right now are just to Z it. It really doesn't need much to get it down in the dirt, Its on the A arms and cross member right now. I wish I could drop the scrill to buy drop spindles tho. That would be the best option.

Re: my build thread
Alright Luke here you go! Big update on what I've been up to lately.
I finally took it down to my work and chopped of the rear frame and got my rear clip installed. The front clip is off the cab is ready to be lifted off and motor is ready to be pulled. After that is done I'll Z the frame and clean it all and paint it. Here are some pics.

Re: my build thread
And one more of what I did today, made a battery box to mount it in the rear, it will have some cool machined aluminum tie down and the cables will run thru the frame up to the motor.

Re: my build thread
Update of where I'm at now on my truck. Figured out it wouldn't go as low as I wanted it to so I decided to do a stock floor body drop. Here are some pictures. In the process of trying to find a power rack to buy right now gonna call up some junk yards in the morning.

Re: my build thread
Thanks guys, been making progress almost every day. Bought a power rack and pinion set up and got my truck back to a rolling chassis to mock it all up. Body mounts hit the ground and I've still got about another 2'' it could drop.

Re: my build thread
Haha I hear ya Luke. And all he needs is interior and wheels! Altho I couldn't imagine building a car of that caliber. I get nervous just standing around it. I couldn't imagine working on it.
