Toreadorranger Build...2 years in the making


Thought I was the only one who'd be done with college before he even got his truck wheelable......**** man! It looks good tho bro. Yur like me, just takin yur time and doin things right n researchin the shit outta sumthin before ya decide ya wanna run it. I like the sliders. Thought about doin that but they ain't rusted out n banged up enuf yet for me to justify it. Give er aanother winte or 2 and I'll be right there withya. Just shoot for a next summer completion date or somethin, that's kinda what I'm fnding I keep havin to do, since it never gets any work done on it.
 
Hoe-ly Fawk! I actually took the time to re-check on my posts and the updates and you DON'T HAVE A DAMN THING done on this thing yet? WTF bro? Pull yur tampon out, put yur panties back on and get moving......if yur not careful, I might just catch up...lol

I havent had much time Im trying to get my motorcycle on the road and Ive been on the job hunt since january. If I get one of the two positions I interviewed for I will be renting a garage space to finish the truck in so Im not outside.

I did get my wheel spacers the other day though. they are 1.25" per side in the front. I need them for my tires to clear my lower links.

you may need to grind down the lugs with 1.25" spacers for the wheel to sit flush.
 
1.25" ones should fit fine without cutting. It will be close. My 1" spacers required me to cut off the unthreaded portion.
 
I'm gonna go ahead and say, you've spent 3 years so far, go find a 60 to put up front. It didn't take me 3 years, but the FIRST time out after i did my 44 SAS i broke a shaft, that was the shittiest part of that whole deal.

You are spending enough time to link it and do it "right". Get a 60 and be done. I know i'll never run anything else in anything i build again.

I had a 60 I sold it, I cant afford to build a 60 right now. I would have to get new tires, wheels, highsteer, regear. At this point its not worth it. Plus I think Im going to skip the 60 stage. Im going to finish my truck this year. Wheel it for 2 years then go rockwells. alot cheaper in the long run.
 
I worked on my bike most of the day and since it was dark out I carried my spare door downstairs to start cutting it up.
