Was busy helping a friend work on a 3.4 swap into his 84 this weekend, but got some time to work on my project today:

sliders pulled, they won't be going back on the truck


cab stripped the rest of the way ready for cutting and cut lines taped




fuel tank removed, bed mounts cut and cleaned

[THK Matt]

are you grafting the cab piece into your existing?

[2slow4you]

Damn quadcab 2nd gen... I'm in.

[Talon84x4]

made the cut today





got the back up on the frame, but have a bunch of trimming to do before i can get it butted up with the front and close the huge gap. It's about 8" back from where it should end up, then once it's all set it can get welded and then i can work on the wheel well cuts and the roof

[JANDO11]

wow that things lookin crazy... i like it

[LilGonzo86]

its going to be good.... good to see some more progress

[THK Matt]

OH DAMN dude. the suspence is killin' us.

[Talon84x4]

Little bit of work, much more thinking and measuring:



i'm still going to push it forward another 2.5" to 3"





i'm 6' and here's where my knees end up before moving it up a little more, this is with the front seat pushed all the way back

[THK Matt]

WOW!!!!

[89DLX]

I need more.

[GotMyYotaBack]

Looks great! What size rear tire are you gonna run, a 195/50r15?   

Just screwin wit ya, are you gonna cut a rear fender, under that seat, then the door too like 3rd gen/Cherokee kinda deal 

[Talon84x4]

Yeah, the thinking is all my obstacles should be in front of me so I only really need big tired up front right? so i was going to get some small trailer tires for the back and save on weight. 

The back fenders will get cut, i'm just waiting to get the cab moved to where it will stay, and then the radius will get cut from my rear axle

Here are some pics from our Calico run





Do you have any other pic's of this bottom rig? Possibly a build thread?
This is what I want to do to my runner.

))--SLIVER-->

[Talon84x4]

I don't think I have any other pictures of his rig but i'll look, and I don't think there is a build thread for it but it as an awesome rig to say the least. 609 front, 60 rear, 4 link rear, 3 link front, coilovers all around fully caged, dual cases w/4.70 behind a 22re.....someday mine will be that nice, and work that well....someday

[fj-rankenstein]

very very neat..   keep up the good work!!

[Yota87Truck]

Wow, your going to have a huge amount of leg room... Even after moving it forward 3"

[Talon84x4]

Wow, your going to have a huge amount of leg room... Even after moving it forward 3"

Yeah, i figured what's the point of adding back seat if it's going to suck sitting back there. This way even i wouldn't mind at all riding in the back

[Talon84x4]

getting closer, got more trimming done and it's almost to where it needs to be















and my help checking out their new seat

[GONZO97]

Dude that is looking good and cool dogs lol i have a few of my own wish i could take them out with me but they freak out in the car for some reason lol but keep up the good work we are all waiting in anticipation

[ToYocRawleR]

Thats lookin pretty sic! cant wait to see er finished!

[Talon84x4]

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get this sound deadening stuff off? I've been told it's tar based, so could it just come up if I hit it with a heat gun and a scraper? Thanks

[crawlerdan]

wire wheel on a grinder-off in 2 mins

odly enough, the same material in my subaru came off after hitting a tree doing 40...weird

[IVrunner]

amazing job man!  basically my dream build - a true inspiration.

As far as the sound deadening - i've had luck chipping it off when its cold.
