Well like I mentioned in the last post,, I had to move the front frame rails in 2" on each side because the fenders hit the tires,,, so I cut the rails off just behind the top A-Arm mounts, and boxed them in and now I am making some 3 /16 thick boxing plates to reinforce the rails,, got the sides done ,, still have to make the top and bottom plates,,,
Also made a gadget to help me figure out the back spacing for the rear wheels, and to determine if these monster tires a will rub anywhere,, I am trying to keep from having to widen the fender wells, if possable,, but it looks like these 15 " wides Mickys are gonna work
I GOTTA DOWN SIZE THESE PICTURES<<<<<<< SORRY FELLASLast edited by BAD RAT; 11-02-2010 at 12:17 AM.

A little catchup here.. getting things mocked up some,,
ggot the frame welded up. changed the rear tires over to the 10" sprint wheels I had.. kinda makes them buldge out on the sides. and not the right backset,, so I guess ordering new wheels is next,, [ i don't like the sprints anyway,,Last edited by BAD RAT; 04-11-2010 at 11:23 AM.

BR - really looking good (that is for someone that did "other things" all summer
)
OK pictures - don't know what software you are using, but if I'm not using Photobucket, I resize my pictures with Photoshop Elements to 500 pixels wide, and then let the height take care of itself.Dave W
I am now gone from this forum for now - finally have pulled the plug

Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
