Thank you, this truck has never been hit so the frame was super straight and the powder came out perfect.

[superflysteiny]

So here is the update. The front is together. I have to cut the ends of the tie rods but I will wait until the rear is together before I do that. It went together super easy. I am really happy with how this truck is going together. The truck is not fighting me at all which is great because i am not used to that or maybe I am just getting lucky. At any rate I am waiting on the rear end and some hardware. So I am moving onto the cab tonight I plan on doing the fire wall and finishing the wet sanding.

[67cheby]

man that looks great !!

[72k5zl1]

i like the satin black.

Thanks guys, I went back and forth on the front brakes, do I go with the big 14 inch rotors or the smaller stock ones. I just did not feel like spending the extra money so I will use these for now. Later when I build the tahoe/burb I will put these on the tahoe and buy the big ones for this truck. At any rate I think the truck is coming out cool. I am suposed to get the engine this week which will be cool.

I struggled with this on my current build as well - I think it looks great. I think you will end up leaving them on as they looks great and who knows you will probably just go bigger on the Tahoe!!!!

I think what you have done in the time frame is second to none - totally amazing! When I look at these pictures - your frame/PB stuff should be up at a booth in SEMA or something!! Seriously beautiful work!!

I have a root canel I need looked at I will catch a flight out asap

Thanks Ronnie just let me know on that root canal I will knock it out for you. The flight may be more then the root canal. Glad you like the frame. It came out really clean. Nate and his gys make nice parts so it was easy for me to get the frame to this point.
