good lookin work Devin!

MiniTruckMafia · 08-10-2006, 10:28 PM

Im gonna start following this thread...that is some badass skills....So you are using 3/16 to mold the front together? What are you going to use for your body mounts? I did something only a dumbass would do and cut 3 of my body mounts off...not really thinking about what I was doing....what would you suggest I do to Line everything up with the cab evenly? The only body mount I have that hasnt been cut off yet is the rear driver side....any suggestions?

MiniTruckMafia · 08-10-2006, 10:35 PM

Also...forgot to ask this....how would I go about getting a shit load of lift in the front....and alot of camber when I lay it back out? maybe shorter control arms on the top?

Onelownismo · 08-11-2006, 11:12 AM

Nice work! Very motivating, makes me wanna work on mine!

LaynBodyS-10 · 08-11-2006, 11:14 PM
