Re: Perfect Stance

The owner is a member. His name is norcalguy, I think

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

just wondering how your rear suspension is setup, and what kit is it.

I knew they were Eagles but couldn't find them on their site. You may be right that they don't make them anymore....?

Re: Perfect Stance

I generally don't like red trucks, but 67Fleets looks awesome! Something about that chrome trim really sets this truck off. What wheels are those?

Thanks! The wheels are Raceline Phat Divas. They are 2-pc billet 20x8.5. The trim is now gone, and the truck is under construction, probably not going to replace trim, it's getting fully shaved and smoothed.

Didn't stay happy long did you? I'm sure it will be doubly sick when it returns. How 'bout some in progress pics?

Eagles Website

I ordered a set on ebay used and one wheel was curbed, called eagle for a replacement and they told me they were discontinued, you never know though, american eagle/MSR/Boss is not known for top notch customer service, everyone you talk to at eagle will probably tell you something different.

Nope, I'm never satisfied. Progress pics will be coming soon. I've been so busy at work and haven't had much time to spend on the truck. Now I know why it takes people so long to complete their projects!!

No, I wanted to, but I didn't want to get into all the extra stuff that comes along with it. Don't get me wrong, I think Nathan's dropmember is an absolute work of art, and an engineering masterpiece. It's just that I had to draw the line somewhere or my truck is never going to get finished. Monetarily as well. I am having Captkaos section a crossmember for me though. He also does some exceptional work.

Re: Perfect Stance

I will revisit the idea of a dropmember when the time for a new motor presents itself next year. I'm waiting to see the back half before I decide on tubular vs. C4.

Pics of mine! I'm switching to the porterbuilt dropmember soon. Devious custom 3-link in the rear! Frame sits 2" off the ground front & back!

Re: Perfect Stance

Do you have your bed sides mounted yet? I would like to see the structure and how you mounted them.

Re: Perfect Stance

No-I just had them cut-out for the wheels last week. Wanted to see how the truck looked with the bed on. Will have to be all custom (tubs & smooth floor).
