IRS in a gmt400

Did I miss the reason why you’re running two alternators? Sweet build!

Thanks and it’s because a multitude of reasons, I have a full audio system(up to 2500 W continuous). Although it only gets turned up to show someone. The power steering can peak at 70amps and the brake booster can do around 15-20amps(not entirely certain on that one)

Nice!

The suspension is pretty much done besides fully welding in a few things that are currently just tacked. Then it’s down to cleanup and painting. Wiring is almost done. Picked up some brake pads recently and the size just seems unreal to me. (water bottle for size comparison) I’ve also been playing around with the passenger side fender to get the extra clearance so it won’t rub. Added a vent just for looks, not 100% sure if I will keep the vent yet but I think I’m going to.

This truck is so dope

Great idea using the original fender lip. The vent is cool, would prob look better once there is some mesh etc in the hole. I dig it.

Nice CAD.

Truly awesome. This needs to be in a magazine, website article, etc. I think OBS Builders Guide would be all over this, honest to god.

Maybe some stainless or raw and paint match…

Or….

Weld the hole back up and use some large dimple dies.
