Haha! I love how it's not centered.

Haha! I love how it's not centered.

How would it fit if it was centered? Inline 4 the carb is off center.

The best thing was the woosh sound it made every time you hit the gas. I loved that truck, it made me laugh every time I drove it. It didn't have a floor pan on the driver side. I would stick my feet through the floor and it looked like Fred flinstone was driving.

[BRUTUS_T_HOG]

[The Mud Addict]

Just because they sell welders to anyone, DOES NOT mean just anyone should use them

 

[legoms013]

One to shit on and the other to cover it up.

Effing dumbass whoever built it. Hope he reads this. Must be all the Meth they are doing up there...

Well i'll be dipped. This stuff makes my handy work look professional. Some of this stuff is scary. To think i thought my coil spacers i made were janky.

So there is my fabrication. Ohh and for a shock bolt on the rear in a pinch we took a piece of all thread, put red locktite on one end with a nut. Tightened it, let it set, stuck it through and put a nut on the other end with a washer. Ohh and the locktite end had a washer too. That little deal to this day is still on my truck and works great. Guys at the tire shop and my mechanic loved it.

That is how someone either tried to secure the heat shield or tried to stop a hole in the gas tank.... Smart.
