Re: The Snortin' bull

Just layin' some more pipe. I know these picture's are kinda boring though I have found that in the forum's we pick up subtle little helpful thing's in the picture's. Just need to trim and fit and finish off the tailpipe's. Install header flange to pipe gasket's maybe tip's and exhaust is done.

Re: The Snortin' bull

Exhuast is all in and hung.Used Remflex gaskets at headers , pipe is 2.25" aluminized steel.Mufflers are Jones Exhuast.Moved suspension thru far and lowest position no interference.Front down pipes get close to the ground when aired down though.Might to redo those in future.

Thanks, Wade
I ended up using 1987 c-10 power steering gearbox.Same for the idler arm.The donor front crossmember was 1987. The center link is stock using CPP tire rod adapter sleeve's for a little bling.These adapt ausing both early and later tie rods end's .Sorry for the late response though all was coming together.

Re: The Snortin' bull

Fully aired down. The truck was planned out to be able to cruise at full aired out. I did not build it to lay frame but to almost appear to and still slow cruise in show atmosphere. The pinch welds are just over an inch off the ground under the cab rocker's.

Re: The Snortin' bull

I am on the fence to put on a rear bumper or not. Even though the exhaust tip's are hardly showing I still tipped off with a chrome pencil tip. Yosemite Sam street sweeper's I call them.
