PLAN B

[ashman]

did you see how the springs are mounted to the axle?

Holy crap!! I didn't catch that.

The level of stupidity on this truck would have scared me off. When there is stuff like that done, you never know what else there is that could get you killed! Keith, is right, tear it apart completely. It's the only way you'll find all of the dangerous stuff done to this basket case.

Its all coming apart 100% lol the only parts we are keeping is the body and frame (possibly the axles if she keeps it small)
Im not afraid of a little (or a lot) of work lol. Finding a body and frame in this shape is worth working in the meth lab

One thing is it doesn't have power or disk brakes so doing a more modern axle swap may not be real simple

we talked about this. not hard to add power steering and brakes.

Power steering is easy the brakes im still unsure of
Id like examples of where you guys have added power steering and brakes to rigs that didnt have it @72gmck5 @kgblazerfive @blazinzuk

I'll start a thread once I figure out which direction I'd like to go. I'm glad we went with the meth lab Scout, it'll be fun, maybe a Walter White/Heisenberg-ish type build?

What would that entail?

 

[the_blaze]

I just gifted @HereForThePics a membership so she can start her build thread

 

[blazinzuk]

What would that entail?

I think it means Joey is gonna have to start selling meth to fund the build.

Something like that.

Lol i looking to expand the shop, that will be my contribution and labor

 

[HereForThePics]

What would that entail?

It would entail covering up some shadiness with a respectable build

I'm waiting for the build thread to voice my opinion

@blazinzuk i need you to come down for a weekend to help with bumpers.
I'll be doing my abomb using @ashman lift with @72gmck5 , @Drummingpeke and ashman in December. I think if you came down and sat with @HereForThePics you might be able to convince her to do links....

That's some next level meth-head fab for sure. That is sure one way to do a spring over conversion.

The fact that they literally stuck a bolt under the spring and didnt even weld the bolt tells me someone/thing special had to be involved.
