Re: Dropmembered Gen III SWB Fleet build

Here's a couple of picts of the rear suspension. Still waiting on a couple of parts to finish it up.





Also bought myself a new driver. 2009 Dodge, hemi, remote start, 20's, etc. Basicially everything that my last driver was not. lol. It's nice to be able to pass people without turning off the a/c.

Chrysler will still take care of the warranty. I'm not even going worry about that. Hell I should have the drop kit for it friday and it doesn't even have 1500 miles on it.

Re: Dropmembered Gen III SWB Fleet build

Some progress. I talked to Nate this week and I should have my Porterbuilt control arms in the next week or two. btw the tires on the chassis right now are 29" tall.

Re: Dropmembered Gen III SWB Fleet build

finially pulled the pict off my phone of when I first got the truck. A few others aswell. lol.

Doesn't look like I've got much interest in selling the rolling chassis. So I guess I need to get back to work. Anyone around the tulsa area want to weld in my rack notches and a few other small things? I'd pay of course.

Re: Dropmembered Gen III SWB Fleet build

I'm not in the area, but i'm not that far away and I could use some extra money for my truck. You got a welder or at least a 220 outlet? Let me know and i'm sure we can make the trip down.

Re: Dropmembered Gen III SWB Fleet build

Build is dead. Rolling chassis is sold. Moving and trying to liquidate the remaining parts.
