Love the build! Keep it up. Those rear wheels look like they are gonna be close to the top of those rear fenders? Looks good.

Did you happen to do an original build when you did the Z? I want to do a Z on my burb until I can afford to do the dropmember but looking for some direction. I have searched the site but haven't found much.....thought it was worth asking. Trucks looking killer!

Nice shiney new truck. Same place I bought mine.

Slammed66 · 01-23-2012, 01:56 PM

More progress, but no pics to be taken.

Engine and trans angle set, fabbed up a carrier bearing support so I can get the drive shafts in and set the pinion angle.

clearanced the driverside engine mount. For those of you running a dropmember , borgeson steering U joints are too big and hit the egine mount....

gonna go order some more stuff today and maybe get some more done tonight.

Slammed66 · 02-06-2012, 03:30 PM
