Had to charge the battery to get the truck in the air...lol

Got the bed off

Got it backed in.

Bye Grill & Hood

Bye Passenger Fender

Bye Driver Grill

Bye Bumper

And heres the pile of part so far.

Xtreme24 · 09-30-2009, 11:15 PM

looks like a good start

GET_LOW · 09-30-2009, 11:38 PM

that last picture deff threw me off. haha!

Looking good. reminds me of when i was tearin into mine.

sfbd or tbd?

What u plan on doing with the clutch master?

djleighk15 · 09-30-2009, 11:53 PM

lol yea that last picture is the other bed ill be using, the bed i took off has a dent by the taillight so i got a new bed...It will be a traditional. as far as the clutch master goes ill be keepin my 18's so im either gonna try to angle it, or move it up a little bit if nesesary

GET_LOW · 10-01-2009, 12:23 AM

cool man.

I would consider flipping th master though. Its so easy and cleans up the firewall a ton.

djleighk15 · 10-01-2009, 12:40 AM

Flipping the Master? what you mean...

corkyw123 · 10-01-2009, 01:29 AM

"Bye Driver Grill"????? lol, j/k. Looks like it's gonna be a fun one. Atleast yours looks clean underneath. That always makes things so much easier.

How big is that shop/garage? Looks like it's kinda tight in there. Mine's in a little shop that barely gives me room to work around my reg cab. It sucks ass but it's cement and indoors (and borrowed, lol) so I aint complaining.

djleighk15 · 10-01-2009, 01:59 AM

its a two car garage...plenty room for me...you should have seen how much shit was in it just this morning...My truck could barly fit in it by itself. Yea its pretty clean underneath so itll be a good little project to work on..hopefully not to many problems.

erieinksdime91 · 10-01-2009, 02:42 PM

i think what GET LOW means by flipping the master cylinder is by mounting the master cylinder under the dash board and just run your lines through the firewall... it would clean things up alot! Or you can just get a cute chrome 7" booster like i did, cleans it up and looks nice! just make sure you get dual diaphram if you get a chrome 7" booster/ cylinder

djleighk15 · 10-04-2009, 10:01 PM

layNrkr · 10-05-2009, 08:13 PM

mcaravella04 · 10-05-2009, 08:34 PM

layNrkr · 10-05-2009, 08:44 PM

mcaravella04 · 10-05-2009, 09:22 PM

The truck is getting closer to being done! So hopefully in the next couple months.

orangesonoma · 10-05-2009, 09:51 PM

nice pace you got going..keep it up!

djleighk15 · 10-06-2009, 12:17 AM

Thanks guys...I didnt really get crap done today though...I got my upper arms painted up though and the truck in on stands now so tomorrow my upper and lower arms are gonna get installed and imma be putting all new fitting on it to try and get rid of a slow leak i always hah up front. I might install the cavi intake tomorrow as well just to get that hidious stock intake manifold off.

layNrkr · 10-06-2009, 12:22 AM

did you get your new tank today?

djleighk15 · 10-06-2009, 12:56 PM

Yea I got it. It's in perfect shape too

djleighk15 · 10-07-2009, 02:12 AM

Check List for Tomorrow (not in order)

1.Get old gas tank out
2.Get old upper arms out
3.Grind off paint in cutting spots
4.Remove wiper motor
5.Remove rubber mat on firewall
6.tack weld cross bars on frame
7.remove emergency brake line
8.MAKE SOME CUTS

djleighk15 · 10-07-2009, 11:14 PM

Ok well i got 4 of the 8 actaully done but what i did do im happy i did. I decided not to remove the upper arms untill im ready to put in the new ones just so the new sd ones dont get all scratched up and shit. but i got some good progress done today I think. I didnt get the crossbars welded up either but i did clean the frame where they will be welded in so thats no biggie to do. I got the headliner out, old cracked tank out, got the rubber padding off the firewall, got most of the grinding done besides the firewall. and I made my first cut so not to bad for a days work i dont think.. CHECK IT OUT...

New Tank

I thought this was a cool pic. Gotta rep the Altered Dynamics

Bought these today from silverstar

Xtreme24 · 10-08-2009, 05:11 PM
