Chlsnk · 01-17-2010, 11:32 AM

I still think you should BOX that Z in just to be on the safe side.

Driveway Dreams · 01-17-2010, 11:52 AM

I agree, box it, plate it, gusset it whatever it takes to make sure that it is strong enough. But it looks to be coming along nice.

smashingchuck · 01-17-2010, 12:36 PM

It's mandatory that you finish the Z. Completely unsafe the way it is now.

Chlsnk · 01-17-2010, 12:51 PM

We beg you please Box that Z better be safe than sorry . Remember "murphy" loves to work on these trucks too.

jrsmith_2010 · 01-17-2010, 04:14 PM

Rollinsqrbdy · 01-17-2010, 06:57 PM

Dont get mad bud. Their just looking out for your safety and the others on the road. Remember thats what makes this forum so awesome, is all the helpful tips and great people in here. I really dont think their telling you to be a-holes. Your truck is looking good jr. Keep up all the good work.

Rollinsqrbdy · 01-17-2010, 06:57 PM

Ohhh ya i forgot to tell you, BOX IN THAT Z DANG IT. lol

Driveway Dreams · 01-17-2010, 07:22 PM

I am not trying to be a "Richard", just looking out. Keep at it, you are obviously one of the most driven on here. Your drive to customize will payoff big one day.

**PRattenbury** · 07-11-2010, 09:28 AM
