Well in response to my photos being taken down, I have moved more towards YouTube. Me and a buddy started a channel and our goal is one video a week. We did a breakdown video of my truck, check it out!

No updates yet on the truck, I am waiting on my other coilovers to show up though, should be here in a week or two. I did start this though:


We posted another video showing the advantages of a CO2 tank for onboard air. We show some pros of the setup and what you need to make one yourself.

Any feedback is appreciated, cheers!

The videos look great and the truck sounds great too. Planning on adding bedsides with that tailgate, or will you run it with your current bed setup?

Thanks man, the tail gate will be incorporated with some tube, no bedsides though, at least for now.

Been slowly plugging away on the tail gate. I got the latch and frame for it done, just tedious body work and mounting the tailgate to the frame now.


Check out our latest video, if you get offended by mall crawler jokes it may not be for you

The coilovers finally showed up, now we are waiting for 2”.25 wall DOM we ordered from the metal mart to show up. 3 week wait time now.

In the meantime, here is a video of us struggling to dismantle a run flat without proper tools. We should have just cut that crap out.

So with the coilovers are you ditching the James duff parts or just linking the rear?

Keeping the radius arms up front, the duff coil brackets and coils will be going. The rear is getting 4 linked and the skyjacker springs will be going.

So in hindsight how did the Duff setup work for you? Was there a particular issue with it that made you decide to change the suspension setup?
