Re: Project 69SWB

Also picked up my wheels, but still need to get tires. Went with Polished AR TT's 17x9.5's for the back and 17x8's for the front. Thank to lolife99 for helping me with that.

Thanks all.. I've been eyeballing these and the Raceline Strikers for a while; couldn't afford the Strikers, yet I don't feel like I settled at all with these.. Love them, they do look alot better in person than online. :-)

Hey Jonathan! I still have your number plugged in my phone.. Almost called you a couple times when I was doing the disc brake conversion, but I managed with a little patience and some crawling/reading around on this forum. I have been busy for sure and I'm going to get this cab lined out if it's the last thing I do. Do you have that trim hung yet?

A good crossthread is better than Loctite any day.

Life is not about what you have, but who you have to share it with.

I stripped the paint/anodizing, fixed a few dings, re-polished, and re-painted/cleared them. They look awesome and are ready to go on when i get it painted.

Re: Project 69SWB

Finally had some time to get back to working on the Cab.. Lot's of cutting, lots of grinding. Couldn't get the front passenger floor peice from LMC to fit correctly so I had to cut pieces and lay them in one at a time. I did use part of it though
