finally layin' frame

i finally got some time to work on my truck again. let me know what you think. now the truck is all half ton and a short bed. just needs fuel tank and lines, drive shaft shortened, and watts to be on the road again! along with back half reinforcement/frame boxing, sandblasting/paint, andrear brakes/e-brakes

Re: finally layin' frame

Can you check your pinion angle +2" & -2" from ride height & tell me how much variance you get?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
