Re: [PROJECT] FnLow 69
thank guys I still got a loooong ways to go...hope to be done by next summer
hey bob moore, I live in Gig Harbor. hey 72cstc5, Yes i shorted the frame to a stock shortbed wheel base |
Re: [PROJECT] FnLow 69
i was going to say that original backhalf certainly doens't look very strong, but then it was modified. the new version should hold up better and be less reliable on good welds. the old one would have self destructed if a weld broke.

Re: [PROJECT] FnLow 69
thanks again guys... progress has been good got the tranny tunnel/driveshaft notch 1/2 done should be done this week. I'll post pics when its done.
Madiron- as for the old backhalf its long gone sorry. Jimmydean- the balkhalf idea was inspiared from XXL's and valleycustoms backhalf/frame, as well as i was going for a simple/clean look, yet some thing that looks good and was strong. |
Re: [PROJECT] FnLow 69
hey nice truck do you have some pic,s of the Z' 3" and how much did you cut of the bottom of the frame. to make it lay out .thanks

Re: [PROJECT] FnLow 69

Re: [PROJECT] FnLow 69
What are you going to do with the dash?
|
Re: [PROJECT] FnLow 69
gorgeous work, I love the backhalf, wish I had the time to do that. I'm 18 and gonna notch my truck at thanksgiving wen I'm home from skool. Already built everything else and got full airbags. Definately encouraging to see people about my age doing kick ass jobs at home, cuz no way in hell is a shop gonna do something that I could learn 2 do...
