Thanks man.

Yeah we got the bed on Friday night. Gotta get my new carpet in tomorrow and the seats back in. Then fill in the xtreme kit holes on the bed and finish up some body work on it. Then seam seal the inside and get it ready for line-x. Hopefully it will be all cleaned up and ready to go for Blood Drag.

purplepassion · 01-27-2008, 07:17 PM

maybe i missed it, but why did you get a new bed?

Prime. · 01-27-2008, 07:22 PM

new bed is fully shaved, full skin, caddy tails, full sheet metal inside with angled corners. Inside needs a little work, but it's nice. I don't have any pics of it yet, I'll get some up soon.

purplepassion · 01-27-2008, 07:22 PM

sounds good man.

get some pics up now!

The Sos · 01-27-2008, 08:04 PM

phillip7 · 01-28-2008, 09:00 PM

I've seen the bed and it looks good but just needs some work. Justin did you ever notch for the cab. I'm back in town if you need help!

slmmedxtrme03 · 01-28-2008, 11:08 PM

Big_Bake · 02-11-2008, 01:08 PM

any update on this bad boy?

Prime. · 03-01-2008, 07:59 PM

Update Time:

Got the new control arms on today. Thanks Jason! It's closer to laying in the front now. Is sitting on the firewall and tie rods pretty hard. Plans for next weekend are weld in the new rollpan, weld up xtreme kit holes on bed, weld in new rocker panel for driver side. Getting it ready for paint soon. I think I just about decided on a color.

Dr.pRymer · 03-01-2008, 08:57 PM

looks awesome man!

hrspwr454 · 03-01-2008, 09:00 PM

truck is looking sweet.

wildman ss · 03-01-2008, 10:11 PM

jeez those arms look purdy

you should have called me, I didn't have anything to do today

I need to stop by one day and check it out and also get the front of mine on the ground

BudRacing · 03-01-2008, 10:27 PM

Lookin good Justin. Were you not going to paint the bed to match your cab? I really like the flat red job you've had. I've always been a fan of those Caddy tails.

Thanks. Wasn't gonna say the color but I guess it won't hurt. Pretty sure it's gonna be PPG gunmetal metallic.

s10fan2000 · 03-02-2008, 12:35 AM

Prime. · 03-02-2008, 12:47 AM

naw, I'm not going to Spring Fling. Wish I could. I may try to make it down to one of those Freaks of Nature cruise nights in either March or April. I will still definitely be at Southeast Showdown and Summer Showdown.

rosswhenifloss · 03-02-2008, 03:25 AM

J.Cakes · 03-02-2008, 11:38 AM

didn't have the shit to relocate them at the time. Have it all now just need the time to do it.

phillip7 · 03-02-2008, 12:40 PM

Looks good justin, if you need help puttin on the shocks just let me know.

Prime. · 03-02-2008, 12:48 PM

Yeah, I'll probably do shocks in the rear when we take the bed off to paint it. It really isn't all that bad with the re8s but it could use them.

phillip7 · 03-02-2008, 12:53 PM

I'll find out about the re8's once I get out there and replace my lower balljoints.

yeah, my ball joints were toast...

phillip7 · 03-02-2008, 09:06 PM

The lowers were a pain in my ass and my back, what really sucks is that I messed my back up last week and working and the truck doesn't help.

Prime. · 03-02-2008, 09:12 PM

yeah, I'm glad the new arms had new ball joints. would have sucked to replace them.

just a little

s10fan2000 · 03-02-2008, 11:04 PM

my stock balljoints hated me a lot.

J.Cakes · 03-03-2008, 12:04 AM

i ball joints are still in good shape

s10fan2000 · 03-03-2008, 09:27 AM

stock arms? give it a little time.

J.Cakes · 03-03-2008, 12:37 PM

yes stock arms, been front bagged for about 9 months and they still look fine

Prime. · 03-29-2008, 05:47 PM

Started a new console yesterday. Worked on it a little more today and got all the mdf work on it done. Houses 3 gauges for air, head unit and some badass stainless cupholders that match the gauges. Now just gotta duraglass some stuff. It will be wrapped in black vinyl with sewed seams on the sides.

^ note that angle lines up perfect when the ash tray is in. just forgot to put it in for that pic.

I'll get some pics up tomorrow of the progress.

BudRacing · 03-29-2008, 06:08 PM

cup holders and everything.. sweet!

phillip7 · 03-29-2008, 07:14 PM

Justin were did you get the cup holders, I've been looking for some.

2002ZQ8 · 03-29-2008, 07:53 PM

looks good man i like the progress

HofinaterSS · 03-29-2008, 08:44 PM

you can prob find those cupholders on a boat site. I gotta get some of them too.

Myst · 03-29-2008, 09:39 PM

Prime. · 03-29-2008, 11:45 PM
