Re: Project Blue Goose
That sounds great. I like the off white wheels.

Re: Project Blue Goose
Very cool project. Love all the mods you've made to the chassis. Looks like some nice brake too. Subscribed.

Re: Project Blue Goose
Thanks guys. The brakes are Black Wilwood D52's with CPP zinc coated rotors. The rotors casting is really rough where they are not machined, not sure if I would recommend them.

Re: Project Blue Goose
I had to get creative so I could use a jack to install the coils.

Re: Project Blue Goose
Thanks Josh, Yeah the little ones are taking up most of my time. I also have house projects that take priority over "truck time" so it will continue to be a slow build

Re: Project Blue Goose
Join the club! That's ok though, no matter how much these trucks mean to us, family comes first.

Re: Project Blue Goose
Thanks I kind of figured you would like them
Thanks, the fronts are new but I got lucky and found the rear on CL. i can't wait to get this frame rolling. The calibers are Wilwood Part# 120-10936, the brackets are CPP D52 brackets.
