I picked up up this project at the offroad swap meet last year and have been slowly collecting parts! The cab and the frame were trash but I mostly bought it for the bed and fiberglass.

I got a new frame and the project begins!

I striped the frame and started mocking up suspension. I had a rotted out cab I was using but have since replaced it with a clean AZ cab.

Well this is gonna be awesome. I very much wanna do this someday. Just adding it to my list

I cut out some adjustable arms and spindle to cycle suspension and check clearances. After a few revisions I started designing in the computer.

So while I started designing parts I had the frame sand blasted. Best thing I did!

A build-off?

Sweet!

 

[F.S.F.W]

You have made more progress in 2 days than I have in 2 years!

 

[charity case]

I wish. This is actually about five months of work a few minutes here and there.
