Heavy thinking does the same to me.

Re: Ultimate work truck/ 70 K10 diesel

Hate that money thing personally. Then when you think you found some, someone else takes it from you.

Re: Ultimate work truck/ 70 K10 diesel
 

I hear that. That's most of the reason my Longhorn has been a shop floor roller and yard ornament. LMAO!

Re: Ultimate work truck/ 70 K10 diesel
 

I wish I had as much done as you Ryan. The wife and I went out yesterday and just sat in the truck. I want it done so bad. I want to have a cool truck to drive.:lol:

Re: Ultimate work truck/ 70 K10 diesel
 

Haven't made much progress due to no money or motivation, but I have been tinkering with the heater control panel.

I like how your combining some modern stuff in an old truck. You have a lot of great ideas, and the skills to back em up!

Driving me nuts not having this done. Flooring work has been nonexistent. Trying to get some welding/fab going.

Re: Ultimate work truck/ 70 K10 diesel
 

Good luck and I hope work finds you man.

Re: Ultimate work truck/ 70 K10 diesel
 

Can I come work for you? :lol:

Re: Ultimate work truck/ 70 K10 diesel
 

Maybe in a couple months. :lol:

Re: Ultimate work truck/ 70 K10 diesel
 

FINALLY got at least a little update. I spent the day at Jet-cut, finally cutting out the pieces for my rear bag mounts on the waterjet.

I need to final weld them still, and build the top mount.

Re: Ultimate work truck/ 70 K10 diesel
 

looks great. Are you doing something similar to the Riderite setups for the newer trucks?

Re: Ultimate work truck/ 70 K10 diesel
 

Yeah, but my bags are bigger. I used light 1/2 ton springs for the ride since I'll be empty most of the time. These bags will let the suspension articulate more.

I seen a set of those long travel airbags and they have definitely peaked my interest.

Are you running 63" springs on the back and 52s up front?

Re: Ultimate work truck/ 70 K10 diesel
 

Very nice work on the bag brackets!

Re: Ultimate work truck/ 70 K10 diesel
 

Funny story. When i went to the wrecking yard to get 63's for the rears, i found a set of 54's that looked brand new. I think they'll work better for me than 63's. So i have 52's on the front, and 54's on the rear.

54's... what are those off of? 73-87 trucks?
