What do you need to do for BB12?
- Thread starter Bent77
- Start date
Let's see
Still prepping for V2R,run that August 17th into the 18th, get back from Reno on August 20th, have some surgery the 22nd, then make a desert race car into a recreational rock crawler sometime between the 28th of August and BB.
Hopefully what we bring back from V2R has enough life left in it for BB
Just a few small details I would say

As if your truck didn't already kick ass. 
Here's a shot of the "new" hood on top of the old hood. I honestly started this project because I had smashed the headlight buckets beyond repair and I had to get the DOT lights back on for Blazer Bash. I just got a little carried away .
Tons more pictures of this summers work and last summers (LQ4 install, rear narrowed 20" etc.) on my website here:

Yep
I need to replace one of the hubs on this 14b cause it leaks pretty bad all over the brakes. Not good. Will be mounting some rock sliders before then as well

I had to put a speedy sleeve on my 14 bolt because the axel had a grove on it...I may be able to find the part number if you need one...

That's not it. The hub has a hairline crack right where the seal sits from the edge of the hub to about 1" in
