subscribed this looks ****ing sick already

Your truck does look sweet already, but are you really going to run just one AZ for two 7 gallon tanks or more than one AZ?

[jeffrm20]

I installed the same 4 link on my friends 93 s10, and eventually bodydropped it as well. Only problems we had with it was the upper 4 link mounts that mount to the frame arent very strong. Ended up making new mounts.

How many miles to you have on your 4-link so far?

[draggns10]

Has anyone tried to make the steering column shorter? Started to put my floor back in last night and mock up the seats, pedals and column. With the body drop it looks like i'm going to have a lot less room. It's a tilt wheel out of a 94, I bought a grant wheel that is small in dia. so that should help a bit.

[draggns10]

Finally getting the floor put back in.

Thanks a lot. hope to get back in the shop this weekend and get the floor and firewall finished. I'm going to need arms or mod the stockers. I'll give you a call. Thanks for the support.

[got_u_sick]

Looks sick! Keep the pics comin.

[draggns10]

Small update. Made wheel tubs and started the firewall. Started to smooth out the door pocket.

[draggns10]

Well i have been in the hospital for about a week. Sad to say not much progress will be done for a while. Going to do with what i have untill i get the Medical Bill.

[poriggity]

Lookin good so far bro!

[draggns10]

Thanks, I hope to get out there this weekend and get the cab mounted and the firewall done. So i at least have a rolling chassis again.

[Tuckinnuts]

i really like the floor its going to look clean as hell! thats how i planned on redoin mine one peice, i like the colour the truck is too you going to keep it green ?, how come you were in the hospital? hope your getting better !!

[draggns10]

Thanks. Yeah the floor looks great but it's a lot of work doing it that way for sure. I like the green but I see so many trucks now with that color. It's the VW Cyber Green. I want something thats going to stand out so i'm thinking something different like my signature. Black and red flames with flat clear.

Hospitals suck. I had an infection in my colon and needs surgery to have it removed in a couple mo. Hopefully in the winter mo so it doesn't set me back to much.

[draggns10]

Alright time for an update I sense haven't in a while.. I'm finishing out parting out a 91 4x4 Blazer I picked up for a spare motor and rear end. I'm feeling better time to get back into the truck.

[draggns10]

I found my rims 20x9

I'll pick them up hopefully in the next couple weeks

There ya go.

I have a campbell hausfeld Mig/fulx and it works pretty well. Get the tank go mig, and go to heabor freight and get the $50 auto dark mask makes a huge difference.

[draggns10]
