the slo-vo build thread...


its a 2.5 5spd with 3.73 and 30"s trust me its HARD to make it spin, so i guess the tires will help me
and i drive easy, just the ocassional showoff from time to time, and hell knowing i can end up looking to the opposite side of the street willkeep me from acting stupid lol

youll be alright...i have the 4.0 and a 5 speed and ive got to goose it pretty good to spin so youll be fine

but hey i think driving out sideways is fun...

Jon, are you gonna have any more frame support?? What functionality are you going for?? I plan on having rock lights incorporated in my front and rear bumpers, as well as my sides...We need to plan a night run somewhere!! Looks good so far:icon_thumby:

once i remove the bed to throw on a 1 inch BL im goint to add some tubes to the back of it...the main piece is 3/8 steel

its hard to see from the pics but from the top of the angle on the back down to the piece under the frame will have 3/16's plate on it like a reverse skid...which in that some small led lights will be mounted in

i wont be doing alot of hauling, except possibly my truck bed camper idea if i ever get around to it but it will be more then stout enough to pull anything the ole range can take

also im cutting the rear quarters off level with the bottom of the tailgate and will have side tubes to help with some protection and to keep me from droping off a ledge onto the bed

Your welcome on shipping the doors...... you still owe me 130bucks.

Frank

well then you owe me a $200 dollar storage fee lol
