Thought i would post a picture of how i ran the exhaust.....

I also got a little bored today so i went out in the backyard and took some poser shots

[COToy91 [OP]]

So her is what i am thinking

I want to link the rear.....

my ideas because i am cheap i am not doing air shocks or coilovers... so it is tj coils or if i feel like being cool 1/4 elliptical

Now i am think a three link just because i am a retard and no matter how much reading i do this double triangulated 4 link stuff just doesnt click in my brain. If you have done either or have suggestion please feel free to add your input.

Oh and as for now i am working on my new OBA using a A/C compressor and i am rhino lining from my body line down on the tenth of may. I also shelled out the money to truss and rebuild the entire front axle and ill do longs when i have the cash.

oh and i made my motorcycle a dual sport bike and i am saving gas now 60+mpg

I have been up to a lot lately so i will just go one by one on what i have done to the truck......

First up I used a bedliner product caled Gator Guard, i did from the body line down, sliders, and the bottom part of my flat bed

[COToy91 [OP]]

next up i gave the harrison ac compressor a chance for OBA and it froze up and started smoking in less than 3 min

but this is what i did, and i have a york 210 on the way and ill do it right this time





This is where my air line runs into the tank... Which is the entire bed

[COToy91 [OP]]

moving right along i installed this AMMOLOCK which you can buy online on the ammo can after some a-hole did this...

[COToy91 [OP]]

next in line on the list was a sheered off exhaust stud...
so i took the manifold off and will soon replace it with the new stud

[COToy91 [OP]]

After that i tore down the entire front axel so i can rebuild it and get all the leaks fixed and put some longs in

Where did you source your jackstands? Also, I am a Dennis Kirk customer as well. Truck is looking awesome!

[COToy91 [OP]]

Napa for the jackstands but you wont want them when you find out how much the pair is... $300

[slabcs]

I've got 4 of those jackstands.  They're sick.

[DTB]

Those are some pimp ass jackstands 

[KDXSR5]

$300!?      Maybe I should start saving then. Or maybe I will go to the truck stop and see if they have any big ones. Usually the truck stops have nice big ones like that.

300 bucks for a pair is CHEAP......
