Gave any pics of the job you did on the box? Looks like it came out pretty straight.

Took my '73 Cheyenne Shorty out for a drive in the Redwoods of Northern California. The second photo makes it look like it's jacked up in the back, the truck is level, I was parked on uneven ground.

1986 Silverado stepper that I just bought. First old truck that I ever bought that did not need a bunch o work before cruising it. Super clean never rusty with all of its original sheet metal.

Thanks. I am going to fix it up sometime, once I finally get a plan together. But for now I'm just enjoying rallying it around town.

How's this for short wheelbase?

mud.man.rj · 03-16-2016, 11:30 PM

Well JJskullcracker she is a stubby.

Joeyjoeskullcracker · 03-17-2016, 09:47 AM

My current stubby project

mud.man.rj · 03-17-2016, 08:17 PM

Well you are consistent on shorty's, looks good. Plus anything shortbox is my favorite.

Joeyjoeskullcracker · 03-22-2016, 06:44 PM

Could a moderator please turn my pic the right way. It wasn't sideways when I posted it. Smh

Joeyjoeskullcracker · 03-22-2016, 06:46 PM

I hope I'm not pissing anyone off

Joeyjoeskullcracker · 03-22-2016, 06:49 PM

Ladder bars & coil overs. 8.8 Ford rear from a 4x4 Explorer 31 spline posi. Allows me to tuck a 10" wheel and a 295/50/15 inside the fenders.

Joeyjoeskullcracker · 03-22-2016, 06:51 PM

2" sectioned crossmember with manual rack and pinion. 3" drop spindles. Top of frame raised 2" so that the crossmember bolts match up with frame holes.
