Bottle upgrade.

[Twisted Minis]

[Twisted Minis]

Got upper bag mounts on the truck. Tried to keep it simple and flowing clean.

[twistedtoy92]

[Irongrave]

miss your posts on Infamous Nissan.  still turning out damn nice stuff man

[Twisted Minis]

Thanks guys. Machined some lower shock mounts and got the shocks on today.

[THK Matt]

completely sick work. your work truck is gonna be tight!

[Twisted Minis]

Thanks.

I keep trying to tell myself its just a beater, don't make it that nice.

Obviously its not working. I'm afraid to build a show truck for myself one day...

[THK Matt]

youll appreciate it when its done though. you wont have to worry about it ya know?

and when you build a show truck... i will fricken watch!

[Twisted Minis]

Everyone likes videos right? Here is a video of the suspension travel. Does over 8" lift with the shocks right there, will limit it to 8" even to keep them from being fully extended.

Hey, any of you guys watching this thread have owned first and second gen trucks? I am asking because I am wondering if the 84-88 pillar is shaped close enough to run one of these from TruckPillars.com:


I asked him about it back when I had my blue truck, but he didn't know off the top of his head. And I think I was too lazy to take the measurements he needed to find out. I potentially have 5-6 gauges to run in the truck, and I don't want to cut the dash this time, and I don't want to stuff that many in a center console. If I cant make the pillar fit I probably just wont run air gauges.

lookin SICK!

[twistedtoy92]

it looks like that pillar cover should fit

[Twisted Minis]

Finished my lower arms, and started bagging the front. DS is done, should be rolling soon.

[Twisted Minis]

I bet you didn't notice this the first time.

PS done, roll tomorrow.

[Twisted Minis]

Anyone have one that I can borrow to test? He said definitely wont fit. So I'm hesitant to buy one and not use it. I will probably look at the junkyard if I get some time this week, but I have a funky rush job on the way right now.

[THK Matt]

I notice everything you do lol

[Twisted Minis]

Lol. Nice avatar.


Got the rear arm mounts done and sway bars in.

VERY nice look truck man, that is coming out very nicely.

[Twisted Minis]

Been building a draw through turbo system for a Mercedes. Yes, its gonna blow up.



I needed the Mercedes on the lift, so my truck got to see some day light.

[Twisted Minis]

And slowly collecting some old school audio for the truck. Customer built me a box to exact recommended space. Its super shallow, so I had to go wide to get the air space.

[bslh8tr]

Bad A$$

[Twisted Minis]

I love this...


Mercedes should be ready to test fire tomorrow.


Mitsu frame coming along.
