Re: My new build thread: Stage 4!
Yes, Turp- that is the way John usually does it. A matter of fact when he came to the house to get the NP205 he through it up on the tailgate of my 04 Sierra by himself. It was just so much easier this way, with the interior pretty much gutted. T-case is in, twin sticks installed,crossmember with poly mounts done, stock front driveshaft is mocked up-but is going to have to be shortened a little, front shocks remounted, front u-bolts cut off/cleaned up. Angle on the front driveshaft looks really good so far! Started redoing the front frame horns for the new wincher bumper. John made some templates for the frame rails front and rear to have some custom plates made to weld in to reinforce the frame areas for the bumper mounts. Gotta do a little tweaking of the twin sticks so they line up better, but man am I happy. Start on installing brake components tommorrow! Here's some pic's from today's progress!
