Has taken 77 hours to get to this point. I figure it will be another 3 or so hours to weld together depending on how much the frame wants to flex and oil can. Id love to complete it all together ready to powder coat in 90 total hours...

Re: 540 BBC 68 Burb Dually 54" Boggers on Rocks
So started welding the chassis together and its just taking a bit of time cause just want to make sure it doesnt warp real bad by heating up. So the technique is just weld a few joints then do some body work and let it cool down. When body filler is applied while waiting for it to harden weld a little bit more ect.
In the mean time i transfered the body from my house where alot of the work was done to it and brought it over to my friends shop so that i would have a bigger spot to work on it as well as making the chassis mating alot easier. |

The color i was thinking was doing a 2 tone between kobalt blue and gun metal grey. I wanna powder coat my chassis gun metal grey to match the wheel color. That would make me wanna do the bottom half of the truck in kobalt blue. Then right at the first swooping body line right at the door handles i would bring the rest of the cab up with gun metal grey including the roof. I was also think of doing the apillars between the doors in black and doing real tinted windows making it appear as one giant piece of glass! So just to clarify, the front apillar intfront of the window vent on the drivers side door and passenger front door would be gun metal grey and the middle apillars would be like a jet black... make sense? Shoot me some ideas! Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: 540 BBC 68 Burb Dually 54" Boggers on Rocks
So i made my chassis a little bit too tall. The worst part is i knew that i was doing it but kept going which makes me the most mad haha. So im having to go back and modify it a little bit. Not a big deal, just a set back that i wasnt expecting... Ill throw up some pics here in a bit.

Re: 540 BBC 68 Burb Dually 54" Boggers on Rocks
Wow thats a huge truck!

Re: 540 BBC 68 Burb Dually 54" Boggers on Rocks
I saw said 93 dually fenders? chevy dodge or ford? I am getting ready to build my low dually (only running 35's or 37's) I just need to know what fenders you had for sure. then the rest is up to the body man! lol
Awesome build! Chris |
Re: 540 BBC 68 Burb Dually 54" Boggers on Rocks
Hey chris! I just responded to your question on youtube haha. Ill send ya a P.M. with all the details n such but in a nutshell im not using the ones you see on the truck cause with the 54" boggers they end up being not wide enough and the length didnt work out. So i made some out of sheet metal and sofar they have taken a whole damn 4x8x.16ga sheet to make! lol Hope to work somthing out! Oh yeah and thanks for taking intrest in the truck.

So the problem now was the bottom part of the frame where the bottom links mount up are too tall. The only part that upsets me is that i knew it in the back of my head the whole time but still kept building around it haha. So i just had to cut the top part off and deal with it.
