What no pic's. I really love how your keeping the body stock looking and adding all the cool stuff under ground, almost like a sleeper. Really cool

Re: Project "Old Aux"

Pulled off the bed, and removed the bolt-in notches that were welded in. That was a pain. There's also a big 1/2" plate welded across the top of the rails where it looks like a 5th wheel hitch once was? Looking forward to removing that... they welded it all the across the frame-rail.

Re: Project "Old Aux"

after you cut out the old notch are you going to be boxing in the new notch all the way around?

Thanks Ray

I like the wilwoods. Not really liken the Mcaughys.

Do they offer them in a 14in dia for the rearend?

Whats your opinion on the rotors for this build?


Im thinkin slotted drilled 14inch powdercoated black..........................If we can get them all the way around.

The frame is coming together nicely, but those wheels are sick...

Re: Project "Old Aux"

I saw the wheels today and they look so amazing in person, those windows have a polished edge that is so shiny. The 22's look enormous like a 24". Pictures just don't do them justice, great choice GVizzle.
