          Did you buy camber/eccentrics adjusters? Major tire wear is gonna happen here lol

          How did you bent the radius arms crossmember? Mine is about 1-1.5 inch from floor and I hit bumps and all scrap of roads always but it didn't bent yet... It just grinds the 4 bolts so much that it is now dangerous lol. Time to install the relocators I think.

            Na stock camber bolts, I'm not worried about the wear, as long as I keep my toe in check it should be fine, it'll just wear uneven. I bent my transmission crossmember, it sits about 2 inches from the ground, I was hooning it in a parkinglot over a speed bump, Idk why I just felt the need, it didn't do any mechanical damage like throwing my transmission out of wack, but it bent the lip down a good half inch. I'll be going to the junk yard for another till I get the money for the slim one, but not act like a jackass with the next one. The 2 piece with out the connecting rod between them or with the connecting rod? If you do the relocators with out the connecting rod let me know cause I'd like some decent feed back as far as durability/benefits/safety of not having it.

              Digging it, but too much camber up front IMO. Keep at it though!

                I knew a lot of people wouldnt like the amount of camber, but I like the look of it. Thanks for the kind words man, I appreciate it.

                    I have the relocators with the bar in between both with the raised tranny xmember but didn't install yet. Those damn bumps are a pita I went over one that was like 2 inch high and I tought I was going to be stuck on it. What a horrible sound it does. I know many people run the relocators without the rod in between both without problem. I just think it helps a bit for frame ridgidity.. I might install them this weekend or next.. Maybe I will have to remove the rod because I think my DP is right into the way of it. Hopefully not.

                        If you do let me know if it still feels solid with out the bar if you leave it out.

                        The greens not staying long, I've honestly ***** the shade since I bought it, lol.

                        Well I started doing the body work on the bed and painting it the temp color, jedd is now becoming an army ranger, lol. You can also see where I curbed a wheel , I'll be fixing it and getting them powder coated another color, I was lucky I didn't bend it.



                        I had to redo it because I'm impatient and put the green on before the sealer completely dried. I took this today...... My friend said I'm not allowed to park in the grass anymore cause I'm tearing it up.

                          I took a couple of hours to clean up my engine bay today, I've been having some issues with the fuel pump not getting enough power, found out it was a bad ground. For right now I used some spare wire I had in my garage for a new ground to the frame, I'm going to order a universal grounding kit to dress it up alittle and add some proper grounds, and when that comes in I'll also do even more cleaning/removing. I guess on to the pics of what a couple hours and 100 zip ties can do.







                          I'll hopefully have the air conditioning unit out and blocked off before Simply Clean as well as have the wires on the side of the bay tucked behind the fenders.

                            Holy Crap! I haven't checked your build thread in a while and it's look freakin sick! Those wheels are awesome. Love what you're doing with the truck.

                              What shocks are you using up front? Have you upgraded to 95-97 spindles or you still have older ones?

                                Wait till you see what's going on the intake side
                                Get them in so I can get some feed back man, lol. I'm using some stock length off brand shocks, their holding up surprisingly well. I'm using the original spindles, what's the advantages of the 95-97?
