Beautiful work! I like the surfaces I-beams with bolt holes. Nice square platform to work off of and reference.

thanks i’m tryin my best, the chassis table has made this job much easier. It took a lot of clearance testing to know this ride height will work, i couldn’t imagine having to do that on a unlevel surface.

welp past two months have been crazy but this guy is officially married! hopefully get truck on the ground soon, body panels should be done soon from joe at hot bodz. changed a few things with the chassis so that’s slowed progress down but i’m on the right track now.

I decided I was happy with the layout and welded everything up. Before any more progress I want to make sure my calculations are correct, the cab would fit and check ride height. looks like everything is right where it needs to be, front end will sit 1-2” lower from where it’s blocked up at in pics.

roller soon
