sycloned916 Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 Been out for abit doing work on the 1968 520. Here's it now as it sits being peiced together with some nice goodies. So far it's a roller now, getting the brake lines ran to the disc at all four corners, I have a proportioning valve mounted under the dash with my pedals. And have alot of parts that are being made for it. Still have aways to go but my deadline is the same time as my last build somewhere in Oct. it will be running. 1 Quote Link to comment

yello620 Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 Looking good. How about more info on the rear four link. Cut bed floor? Quote Link to comment
sycloned916 Posted September 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 The Tri 4-link is just what it is with QA1's at all four corners. I set the 4-link so its not all gay lookin slammed to the ground I like to drive my truck and be able to clear speed bumps and pull in a driveway so there will be plenty of room. But that's pretty much it when I'm done I will do a full report on it just not now too busy! Quote Link to comment

Also salvaged my old grill and going to mount it the same way as my First 520. Started the body work for the old side markers now that I mounted my new LED's turn signals. Dash is primed and ready for it's new set-up,Thinking of doing a Digital set-up with 6 gauges all in one and FAST wideband and a Boost gauge,but still thinking! Need one more wire and my fuse panel and the wiring is Done and ready to turn. My brake resivors. 1 Quote Link to comment

hessianben Posted October 6, 2010 Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 dude, i can't say how much I enjoy watching your builds... exactly what i would do if i had the skill/$/time... :) I like the Titan, but i think your truck would look soo mean with 15x8's zero offset! low and wide!!! IMHO, 18's are just too tall for our trucks.... either way, truck looks sick! can't wait for progress! http://forums.nicoclub.com/new-pics-of-my-pl521-from-yesterday-t444176.html Quote Link to comment

But the titans are kinda not what I want now but there on so I'll wait till I find a look I like. Quote Link to comment
