I can't wait to get the chance to mod my frame!
Although everything on my frame is rebuilt 100% & painted, i have aspirations that the PO never had.
I'm gonna Bag-it with a c-notch, & control arms from Nate & the boys...If I can affode it! I am also looking for another crossmember to pancake & replace with the current one. But I am diggin your build so far!

Thanks man been working hard....can't wait to start on the body myself lol hope it comes out as nice as yours is! Wish I had the money to do my frame pb style but am on a very strict budget and only buying what I absolutely need....for now lol maybe upgrade those bolt in parts down the road. Thanks for watching...not everyone might comment but the amount of views I have gotten since oct amazes me and keeps me motivated and wanting to post more. :chevy:

Nice build! Not too many guys from the north east around here.

Lol Well to be honest I'm not sure on the degree on the bend its basically a 2ft pipe bent and shaved flat to mount bag brackets....bags, brackets, and step notch kit I bought from *****************

I want her to get a good job and make lots of money....isn't that every dads dream? She loves matchbox cars so I bought her these.....

Thanks Bomp! I'm getting old lol. Thanks, been working my ass off..... Don't own my own welder:waah:so I luckily have great friend that lends me his so I can jam out and bring the smaller stuff to work to weld up. My girlfriend and I are looking into buying a house with a bigger garage and other things we are looking for.

That's awesome. I get a little choked up sometimes looking at the old pictures. I just got my C4 front suspension parts and should be getting all the Porterbuilt stuff in a month or so. Then it's full speed ahead.

waiting a bit longer to blast the frame. I want to make sure everything is perfect to my OCD specifications.

Small update.....trimmed up my trailing arm crossmember a "hair". Should be done today will post up more pics later. Gave me about another inch of drop. Gonna get some matching tires to the front for the rear and it should be Layin frame. Now back to the front again had this thing apart at least 10 times already.... Getting faster every time with r and i's lol. Looking to pancake the xmember 1 1/2 inches to get the front down a little more. http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q...3B602CA8F5.jpg

Had to throw the front end back together and check my work...been working my a$$ off trying to get this frame ready for paint getting closer. Have to address the steering (mounts and notches) and mount my shocks front and rear. Then it's off to get blasted so I can prime and paint this thing. It is def worth all the work this is a sickness :devil:
