You definitely need 39s for this rig. The 37s look so tiny! ;)

I hope to have ready! The tires will do for now. still have a lot to do just to get running.:(

here is a few more pics,have the rock sliders all welded back on,and the front shock towers on.
I am slowly getting this toy up and hopefully ready to run real soon. I have to finish cleaning up the frame,mount the fuel pump and get all the lines to plum up fuel.I still have brake lines, wiring, paint, tube work, and a bunch of little things to finish up!!

I have gotten a little more work done with my long days at work.

I now have a new shifter set up that will probably drive me nuts for a bit! got all mostall the front suspension torqued down done, have all new motor mounts in while motor was out.I got some of the brake lines and mounting tabs done and welded in,fuel lines run and started bending up some more of the rear cage.:party I still have to finish up the suspension,paint ect., and have about a week to try and finish.

Thanks to all that have lended a hand in all that has been done this past few weeks.

I had a bit of help today, Thanks flxrated,for the help on the cage work.

I need all the help I can get sometimes. Thanks kris for the help also in driving yourself nuts on electrical. Truck now runs again!!!

I now have to get all fluids back in truck and finish alot of welding. BENDS BY SCOTT,WELDS(BOOGERS)BY GEORGE!!!

krawlin85toy · 06-30-2011, 11:22 PM

I have been busy trying to get this truck finished to take it out. It has been a long venture on this truck.I have most of the dash back in all the wiring is about done, fuel lines are ran,then I start pulling the third member out of the old truck and find the pinion gear is short on teeth!!!

Had to over night one so I can get it in and done. I hope everyone is enjoying the progress on this. It should be ready for paint this weekend.(Ihope),have a few more tabs to weld to the cage and figure out the rear lights.

krawlin85toy · 07-02-2011, 10:55 PM

I spent a few more hours in garage last night than I had planned on.
Got all tabs and brackets on I hope, masked off the truck and primed all bar metal, scuffed it all ound and decided to go ahead a lay the paint on today in the garage with all this heat! treated it like a oven after all said and done.

I got the rear center section done and back in last night after a quick order to 4 wheel parts.
Paint for now is done next few days I may wet sand it, now i need to paint the frame and anything else that needs it.
Thanks for the help today Dan and Kory.

heck yeah but the paint i use allready comes premixed. something like cap resembles contents

krawlin85toy · 07-03-2011, 12:22 PM

thats the easy way out, need to paint with a paint gun and then contents are what you mix.rattle cans are cool if you want a flat color!!

,and rusty buttons ....
