Skinny_Pedal · « **Reply #20 on:** Sep 15, 2004, 09:34:22 PM »

what ya gonna do he loves them. but nick and i noticed some cheesy stuff from them

Today we got the stock front spring hangers cut off thanks to the plasma cutter. That is a fun tool to use. We started to grind things down but our teachers 4" grinder didn't have a very aggressive wheel. So I am bringing my 4" grinder tomorrow that has a really aggressive wheel on it, so we will get that stuff ground down. When we finish that up, we'll weld the new front spring hanger on, and hang the springs!! It is up to us to finish this now because Gary can't come back to school even to work on his truck. We will have pics ASAP.

That's a nice project you guys got going there...And it's a good thing your buddie has you two guys as friends.When I was in High School,I had an 81 toy as well,and not one of my friends were into 4bys...They were all into just partying,and the ones that were into their cars were into Hot Rods,VWs,and Hondas..

KYOTA · « **Reply #25 on:** Sep 23, 2004, 05:46:13 PM »

Skinny_Pedal · « **Reply #26 on:** Sep 24, 2004, 12:53:31 AM »

5.29 gears with ARB lockers got ordered today, it'll take me another week or so to gather the cash for the extra transfer case. Then all we need is a couple of drivelines to get the thing movin under its own power. Nick, Gavin...put up some more photots! I wonna know how my babys doin. 4 more days and my suspension is up.
