Who's the bald guy in the blue?

Truck is looking good. I can't wait to see it in action this summer maybe.
 
Not sure if I'll be able to tonight since we got a bunch of snow today.

Seriously considering it. I want the front to be flexy. I probably did at one point but I dont remember now.
 
Small hijack- how much snow did you guys get out that way? We're sitting at 2-3 inches, just enough for people to forget how to drive
 
When's the maiden Tuttle trip?

Maybe you can talk this Marty guy into going.

Unicorn Marty...

About the same here, but a sheet of ice was laid down before the snow and that made it extremely slick.

I'd hope in a month or two. I will have to start stock piling parts once I get it running and get it trail worthy.

I asked Marty if we were going to wheel this year sometime. He said the California K5 needs some front end work first. So I'm taking that as a maybe. I'm sure I'll see him at the river too.

Removed the body mounts from the frame, all three pieces still riveted to each other, and then swapped them side for side.

Look at your body mounts, and then this picture, and see if that makes sense.

I think there are quite a few who forgot that's how most did the 52" swap in the beginning. I did 3 like that before I just started making my own mounts. It really does work very well

I'm down for whenever.
 
If those front hanger/body mounts are a rusted mess let me know. I have a couple pairs of them from CA trucks :D
