Re: Porterbuilt Project Lumberjacked

So is the rear drivers corner to high? Every picture looks that way unless the picture angles are messing with me. Truck looks awesome btw.

Re: Porterbuilt Project Lumberjacked

The floor is flat in the truck. The frame is a little higher in the rear on the left side that combined with aftermarket rear bed mount and the bed is up on the left a little. I had it fixed once but we took the bed off and put the cab on we ran out of time and I never reshimmed it, so the bed needs to be adjusted again

Re: Porterbuilt Project Lumberjacked

Another sweet, sweet Porterbuilt equipped truck.
Love the quality build you are doing.
Many can buy high dollar parts,... but not everyone can throw them together perfectly.
Thanks for not running a 24x15 on the back.
Your wheel combo looks so much more balanced, than the huge rear lip wheel fad that is going on now.
Congrats.

The rears are 305/40/22 on a 22x10 with a 5" BS. The fronts are 265/35/22 on a 22x8.5 with a 5.75 BS.

Re: Porterbuilt Project Lumberjacked

Well guys im not sure if im gonna make it to Delmar or not... I got a call today from my wife who was trying to withdraw money to pay some bills and her card said declined. Well come to find out some GOON had gotten our checking account info and had made a duplicate card and had charged over 2700 dollars in Wal mart transactions on Xboxs, PS3's, and gift cards and other crap in Colorado. They had a actually made another card with a fake name on it. I contacted the police in the town and they pretty much told me that the chances of catching them are slim to none even though they are on camera buying the stuff. Ive never been so Pissed in my life but live and learn and i will get my money back but its gonna take about 5 business days. Which is gonna put me way behind and i dont have a bank card and i had to close my account. Anyway im gonna keep pluggin away and hopefully i get this cleared up sooner than later.

Same thing happened to me last month. Fortunately the fraud unit at my back shut them down before they did much damage. Sorry to hear that the 53%'s are out there working hard not working hard.

Wow Travis, sorry to hear what happened with your bank account. Hopefully they catch the guy who did it and everything gets back to normal for you. Hope the money i sent you for the buddy buckets didn't get mixed up with this.
