    Keep watching my thread as the truck comes together! You'll see a lot worse!
    My recent favorite, was stripping paint off the cab, with the stripper falling on my newly painted chasis!
    A week before that, I forgot to wash the metal down after stripping the door, and painted over stripper residue! As long as there is no blood involved I'm happy!

    As a matter of fact there are alot of parts under there that look a little low. I hope rough and uneven terrain is not on your agenda.

    Hey Mopar, it's aired out for sitting, with 30 pounds in the front shockwaves, it's roughly 4.5 inches from hitting the crossmember. Exhaust is temp for breakin...
    Oh yea, got some exciting news today, Mclean wires are made here in Fresno, he's also the guy that builds the artillary wheels, he's putting together some 16's for me to check out. Right now the biggest is 15's..
