This is my roomates buildup, he isn't very good with computers but he's pretty good with a welder... Here's how he bought the truck
no head, 3" bl, bobbed bed, 36" swampers- bootyfabbed as hell
the first thing he did was make a plan; he decided on running
propane from cary (gotpropane.com)
4" springs
86 rear axle w/ chromolly shafts 5.29's and a spool
85 front axle w/ 30 spline longs, 5.29's and a detroit
4.7:1 single case (for now)
first thing that he did while waiting for the parts is attempt to salvage the bed as well as dovetail it, we brought the rear in to frame width
now that the bed was done he made some half doors
another door shot
the following weekend we cut the fenders and painted it OD green
as some of the parts slowly started rolling in, the tires were mounted (37 MT/R's on procomp Xtreme wheels) the sliders went on and the springs were hung.
since then the rear frame has been gusseted and capped off since the rear shackle hangers had to sit ~.5" off of the frame.
there will be more to come as the progress comes along...
