That is beyond awesome. Excuse me whilst I drool. Did you reenforce the upper front shock mount?

landon4421 · 12-12-2004, 02:03 AM

no I did not

It will never do anything but sit in the garage for the rest of my life

I thought about it, just did not do it ! It will be ok it's not like it will ever see mud again

In that pic it just looked like you welded a support on that wrapepd around and looked swwet. Or it was the angel. Apparently, it was the angle, but now I know how I want to do mine when I get around to it.

And I just noticed the transfer case. hehe

FRENCHBLUE72 · 12-12-2004, 10:46 AM

Glad to see some progress that truck is sweet looking... I know what you mean about slow progress I am in thew same boat right now..

LOOKING GOOD Landon, stay with it!!!!!!

**Yukon Jack** · 12-12-2004, 12:33 PM

That is going to be so awesome. I know how great it feels to see them coming together - bet you're smiling big. What does Kevin think?

silvertonguedevil · 12-12-2004, 12:36 PM

mmmmmmm.....me likey mucho!

Misled · 12-12-2004, 01:19 PM

Landon,
I'll agree with everyone else.....that looks great.

Couple questions;

The frame paint (I used to paint something similar on HVAC diffusers and we called it "hammertone"), was it hard to make look right on the frame?

What size lift is that?

What size tires?

You've given me a lot of ideas for my son's truck!!!

Thanks,

Misled

low burb · 12-12-2004, 01:42 PM
