Got the truck home finally, need to tear down the front end tomorrow and see what bags it was running and start trimming everything out so I can order some new ones. The lip held up good for being dragged up and down the flatbed surprisingly.

I think the one was rubbing which i only noticed the other day and didn't have time to fix, that was this weekends plan and to park it basically for the winter and start to get a lot of the little things fixed.

Exhaust crossover is getting moved tomorrow hopefully, and then gonna try and get the front frame on the ground, hopefully wont take to much. Also noticed the front bags are going to need to be replaced since the po never cut out the pockets and they are rubbing. May be at its last show for the...

First Im gonna try and paint the body line to match them with plastidip and see how that turns out which I think will bring it all together. We did think about paint matching them but of course I was too excited to have them on lol.

Well the fenders I have are junk from being cut wrong inside, and also the edges were "baconed" badly so this was my thinking into a vw trick for running wider wheels and I just kinda wanted to do something different. Here was the reason for the flare, and most wheels I find and may run have a...

Well wasn't really a fun weekend. Did install some 4x4 flares and chopped a good amount out behind them, just didn't take any pics of the fronts, which didn't help much at all sadly. Went for dinner with friends after the install and the clutch slave blew its seals and had to limp it home in 2nd...

so I had to take my mom home from work today, and she said "wow this rides rough" (she is used to my other cars that rode like race cars fyi) and it got me thinking of how to make the bounce go away. Would new bags help? or rear shocks? Does moving the bags from over the axle to the sides on...
