Those seats are from an Acura rsx so now you know if anybody asks, and should be a nice toy when finished.

 

[AsTroSS]

If somebody have 3Gen 2wd front end parts for sale, let me knew.

It can be from 1500, SRT10 or 8 lug -all offers will be welcome

Thanks to eBay I had chance to buy full 3rd gen Ram 2500 2wd front end (hub to hub) including steering rack - no frame ,with reasonable price

[04fummins]

Glad to see this project is still in the works

 

[AsTroSS]

Update.

The font end parts shippment have arrived.

Larry (ebay member partsitout) have done good job with packing (like allways)

Like You see the box top plate is covered with bird ****, it was lost in NYC warehouse :badidea:
Every component was packed well, to survive the long distance and hard handling

And here are all font axle parts, there is one extra upper control arm, because one attached arm is with bad balljoint.

I like it .op:

 

[UNBROKEN]

open sesame!

 

[AsTroSS]

Thanks

I think it's time to update this very slow topic.

Today I received a call from my friend (he is yard owner where my spare part trucks are located), he needs my 2003 Ram 3500 4WD frame and I would like to have his 2005 Ram 2500 2wd frame, so we made a deal to trade the frames.

My 3500 have/had dually rear axle and his have single wheel rear, now I have to decide to ether use dually or single wheel rear axle for my project.

It's slow build , who cares as long it's fun and I enjoy it

Update:

Nothing special, but : I got Hummer H2 wheels machined to Ram and now the 3'rd gen frame is sitting on H2 wheels with bald 30'inch Yokohamas :lolly:


Now I have to wait when snow will melt away and I can start fitting 12V engine and cab .

For me to see the frame with alxes and wheel/tires is good motivator

Currently the frame/axles is also it's located 20miles from my home....:stab:

 

[AsTroSS]

Positive update:

EEP billet cam 210/220 have arrived op:

 

[AsTroSS]

Finally some pictures about how the cab met the frame ...:evil

Here you can see the comparison how small the cab actually is, the suspension is in stock height (as high as possible), Personally I think it need 4 inch drop
