Truck looks good!

I cut out 14" of the frame today.

There is 5" that has to come out behind the rear shackle bracket, so that would add up to 19" total that has been removed from my frame. Where not done welding it all back up yet. I am going to reinforce the insde of the frame with a diamond design, kinda like this <>. This allows for a full weld around the perimeter of the cut.

FYI-The front bed mount brackets are really hard to cut off of these Trucks. The welds are really thin making it hard not to cut into the mount itself. Luckily most of bracket that had some burn thru on it must be cut off anyways to reuse. Its alot easier if you can get access to regular shortbed cab/bed mount which is one piece.

Cool looking good! I would cut another inch out, your wheels may not be center of wheel wells at 13in.

There's gotta be a REAL mechanic there somewhere, I clearly see a can of PB Blaster on top of that frame!
Not raggin' you, I'm never without the stuff.

I definately dont consider myself a mechanic, although I would say I've done better at wrench turning than some that consider themselves one.

I like the PB myself pretty well.

Update:
Got my rear DJM hangers and shackles installed and getting ready to weld the rear cab mounts, and the front bed brackets back on. Moving along but just really slowly.

any updates?

scotts62 · 03-26-2010, 08:04 AM

Man i was just thinking if he got any farther on his since mine has been on the back burner.

For some weird reason after installing the bed on the frame, the Truck doesnt seem like it is lowered much at all. I am going to put the flip kit on and take the hanger off to see how it looks I guess. I really thought that the rear flip kit would be too low.

I got a set of wheels ordered. I bought the last five of these in existence. Got a set of 22x9.5

scotts62 · 03-30-2010, 07:33 AM

Those are pretty nice wheels!

I flipped mine originally but to was way too low and needed a C notch and i didnt want to mess with it right now, im going to lower it but not a whole lot because i still want to be able to tow with it.

scotts62 · 04-23-2010, 07:31 PM

Well have you got any more accomplished on it lately?

wildmanaaron · 04-23-2010, 10:53 PM

I got my frame done and reinforced finally. I am going to use the Frame Coating kit made by KBB Coatings. I have pressure washed and cleaned the frame and stripped all of the unnecessary suspension parts off the frame to replace what is worn out and paint everything. I have a set of RED Energy suspension body bushings on the way as well!

I just got my rendering done as well today. I cant decide wether to have it painted RED or leave it Black like the main rendering.

I am thinking for the interior either use all of the factory Grey interior or a bright red interior.

scotts62 · 04-23-2010, 11:01 PM

Awesome!!!!!!!!

BigBlocksRule · 04-26-2010, 07:33 PM

My crewcab dually is gonna be John Deere Blitz Black. Easy and cheap, frame with rattle cans and body with a gun. This has become the favorite paint of rat rodders and others who like the satin black.

Cool wheels and really nice Concept. What are (were, haha) those wheels?

scotts62 · 07-10-2010, 08:50 AM

Any updates on this bad boy?

stueber68 · 10-05-2010, 04:47 AM

I just pcked up a 98 crew dual diesel 2wd for 1000 from a kid over here. Planning on some fun with this one.

Blitz · 11-27-2010, 03:47 PM

I figured worst case scenario this would email him a reminder to GET SOME PICS UP!

cvalcore · 12-13-2010, 04:46 AM

i wonder if you could do this with a extra cab long bed frame. if it would be the right wheel base or not?
