Re: Rattle Can Kustom!..A 12 week build..Can we do it..
Is it a new compressor? If you contact Viair they may send you a new leader hose. They did for a friend of mine.

Here's a pic installed, and off before new bj's and paint. He's a master welder and does a lot of heavy chassis fabrication, so no worries about his welds. The rear is just F9000 sleeve bags on trailing arms, 2" blocks. Its setting on bumpstops just a hair off frame until I can drive out to his shop. Then we're putting a 3" pipe notch in. So it'll drop another inch or so. I'm putting a bs in again. I just want to drive with back where it is now. The laid-out trucks are kool, but I like alittle Hotrod rake. Posted via Mobile Device

Truck looks really good grumpy. Did you use drop spindles too or just the stockers with drum brakes?

Re: Rattle Can Kustom!..A 12 week build..Can we do it..
nice progress i love what youve done with it. very similar to my overall goals..with that bag setup what other things needed to be modified. just shocks? when layed out do the tires rest on the inner fender?

Im using the stock shocks still. They actually still have a half inch of compression when truck is air'd out. So no bottoming out. But my stepped lower arms only gained me 2 1/8" drop, so just shy of typical drop spindles. Thanks for the reply.

Re: Rattle Can Kustom!..A 12 week build..Can we do it..
Today brought truck not starting...
So after chasing wires, determined the ext voltage reg is dead, as well as weak alt. So replaced with a late 70s style int reg alt. Still waiting on new leader hose................... And front bumper was lose, and found it to be tweaked. So it took 2hrs of fighting to get it close. Still looks off to me.. What do ya'll think? Couple more pics cuz I'm a picture whore Posted via Mobile Device

Re: Rattle Can Kustom!..A 12 week build..Can we do it..
Well, its a driver...WooHoo
We drove it around the block a few times this week, then put about 40 miles yesterday. Today we met my buddy Shane with his Shoebox, and Streetsteel{Matt} with his 63 burb. Still needs aligned, needs timed n tuned better, but she's a driver. Posted via Mobile Device
