James Duff Coil Buckets

[sbsrlewis]

I am finally getting around to putting on their newest buckets they sell. I purchased them about a month ago and finally found some time to work on the BII.

I spent this evening getting the kryptonite rivets out of the factory buckets. Took awhile but thanks to the air tools they finally decided to say uncle and give up.

I'm going to clean and put some paint on the frame rails before putting the new buckets on. It's amazing how much dirt gets behind the stock buckets. Theres an area between where the shock sits and where the coil sits that catches alot of dirt and mud.

I will take pictures and post when finished. Don't know when it will be as I will be starting my 3rd job this week so I wont have much time to work on it but I will post when finished.

A torch with a scarfing tip, and an air hammer makes quick work of those rivets.

Good luck! I have a set and they were worth every penny to me.

Don't own a torch which is probably a good thing considering how oily/greasy the drivers side frame rail is from the leaking steering box.

These buckets are HEAVY DUTY! They are very well constructed n will look good on my truck. Hope to have them on this coming weekend (fingers crossed). Will post pics then.
