Re: LFD's low buck truck build!

Next I cut off the exhaust (welded on unit ), removed the 2 piece drive shaft, pluged the fuel lines and made sure everything was out of the way so I can cut the frame after work Monday. I removed the rear end as well so I can do the flip kit while the truck is down. I have decided to go with the ECE frame chanels and cut the frame at 45* angles instead of the step notch that I mentioned before. The main reason for this is because their is not alot of room to work under the cab and I can do a more accurate job this way. Plus I need new body mounts anyways so I will order it all at once.

I need to check with the drive shaft shop as to weather I will go with a 2 piece or a 1 piece. I would rather go with a 1 piece but it all depends on what kind of shape my 2 piece is in because it will be alot cheaper to just shorten what I have now. But if the joints are bad or any other peroblem than a 1 piece may come into range.

$5 for easy off, $5 in quarters for the wash and 4hrs work.
