fisch Posted November 10, 2011 Report Share Posted November 10, 2011 Man you are rocking the Casbah on this five two one! I am super impressed. Keep it up! Quote Link to comment
blackdeth666 Posted November 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2011 Thanks everybody, I'm pretty pumped on this. Hoping to whip some more ass on my next days off. I think the coilover conversion will be fun to do, much less tedious than sheetmetal. Well it is my birthday today so I'm going to go do some celebrating:D. 1 Quote Link to comment

blackdeth666 Posted November 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 So I got the cab back up of the frame and took advantage of the clear day we had and did some more welding. This way sure fuckin beats laying on your back welding! Quote Link to comment

blackdeth666 Posted November 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 So I've set the cab back on the frame using wood blocks as body mounts, Drilled the holes in the floor and thing is lining up well! Now I'm working on the mounts for the core support but I ran into some more rust... suprise! More updates soon! Quote Link to comment

blackdeth666 Posted November 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 Thanks stretch! Yesterday was busy, I got a good bit done. The body is officially back on the frame and all bolted down, got the core support mounted late last night and I'm really happy with it. I'm going to try and get all the welding finished up over the next couple of days after work. made my own. from this..... and with some help from my harbour freight punch and brake..... to this! mock up. now they are all tacked in place. these were actually fun and pretty easy to make Quote Link to comment

blackdeth666 Posted November 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2011 Thanks everyone! I'm a perfectionist, not quite sure if it is a blessing or a curse.... I guess you'll know you can get a good tattoo from me lol! Ive been welding my ass off this week so hopefully by monday I can cleanup my welds/seamseal/paint, then its coilover time!! woot Quote Link to comment
blackdeth666 Posted November 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2011 Well after some deep thinking, I decided I must complete all the body fab before moving to the coilovers..... So, the cab is done, the bed is done, The thing is bodydropped! no more shit hanging down under. I'd like to find some 720 4x4 leafs and get rid of some blocks to tuck the leafs a bit had these in my stash, they are going on! rusty shit i trimmed off the bed and frame 1 Quote Link to comment

Z chopper Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 now that is very nice work, the body lines even match up :thumbup: that is one thing that bothers me about a lot of body drop trucks is the bodylines don't match up from the cab and box Quote Link to comment
