heres a list of stuff i have to do:
i have to weld and grind on the frame some more
weld grind and clean the paint off the crossmember
clean up the control arms
get a lower ball joint
prime and paint everthing
go find some side jobs so i can afford all the bolts, paint, etc.

[jgh64pkup]

alright i needed to make a little money for the hot rod so i had to work on a f*rd
yes i know it was scary but here ya go
i worked on it a couple weeks ago and should be making about $80 on it
i changed the wheel cylinder,changed the axle seal, and removed the oil cooler. this is my buddies truck (owner of the welder)


i got to keep the oil cooler so im going to use it for a trans cooler
here it is

[highperf4x4]

Why did he remove the oil cooler? A ferd needs all the help it can get!

[joe231]

pics don't work

[jgh64pkup]

fixed the pics
i pulled the oil cooler off becuse it leaked
not the cooler itself but the block that the oil runs through
the lines looked alright so i trashed them
i did keep the -10 fittings though

[jason65]

Whos fatboy is that?

[jgh64pkup]
