Thanks bro. Like I said, its a once n a whiler, got customer truck to build too. But, i need to have her rolling again by the last Saturday in October for a local show. So this next month and a half may see a lot of over time work. The lower control arms are gonna take the longest to build. They're pretty integrated. Ill get you guys some better pics tonight.

Gonna be a big day today. Drivetrain is coming out, cab is coming off, and the frame is goin on the table. I need the shop space really bad for a customer truck, so this next week or two is really gonna be geared towards finishing the chassis, and at least get the truck rolling on schrader valves. Ill try to update hourly with iPhone pics. L8R Fellas!

A little welding on the notches to ensure they stay put when we flip it over

Didn't get as much done today as I wanted, honey do's came up. This week the frame work should get finished, and the rear suspension should start coming together. The front suspension will probably get finished next week. Ive got to get some measurements to MMW for my flat plate uppers. Here's a final shot for today...
