Thank you, this truck has never been hit so the frame was super straight and the powder came out perfect.

So here is the update. The front is together. I have to cut the ends of the tie rods but I will wait until the rear is together before I do that. It went together super easy. I am really happy with how this truck is going together. The truck is not fighting me at all which is great because i am not used to that or maybe I am just getting lucky. At any rate I am waiting on the rear end and some hardware. So I am moving onto the cab tonight I plan on doing the fire wall and finishing the wet sanding. http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/...mefront006.jpg

Thanks guys, I went back and forth on the front brakes, do I go with the big 14 inch rotors or the smaller stock ones. I just did not feel like spending the extra money so I will use these for now. Later when I build the tahoe/burb I will put these on the tahoe and buy the big ones for this truck. At any rate I think the truck is coming out cool. I am suposed to get the engine this week which will be cool.

Oh so you are a Dentist…I remember reading in the build for your wife you have a practice. If your level of work on your hobby is this high I can only imagine the top-notch level of work you give your patients. Man, I bet they are all smiles. :haha:

That is funny. I treat my pts like I would treat my parents or kids if they were in my dental chair. I do the best possible work I can and I am always honest with them. It is the only way for me to go home at night and sleep. That is when I do sleep because I am always working on these trucks.:lol:

I struggled with this on my current build as well - I think it looks great. I think you will end up leaving them on as they looks great and who knows you will probably just go bigger on the Tahoe!!!!

I think what you have done in the time frame is second to none - totally amazing! When I look at these pictures - your frame/PB stuff should be up at a booth in SEMA or something!! Seriously beautiful work!!

I have a root canel I need looked at I will catch a flight out asap:lol::lol:

Thanks Ronnie just let me know on that root canal I will knock it out for you. The flight may be more then the root canal. :lol: Glad you like the frame. It came out really clean. Nate and his gys make nice parts so it was easy for me to get the frame to this point.
