The Frankenstein Build! LT/Expo/Trail rig..and BS

Yep haha how did you mount it? I have read that you mostly just pull the ash tray and shove it in there

 

Sick idea

 

Oh..it'll get better..much better..

 

Pretty much all I did. It fits very smuggly in there. No additional support needed. YMMV.

If you want it to set way back in, more modding will necessary because the coax connecter on the back of the radio will come up against some plastic molding back in there.

I actually don't mind that mine sticks out about 2". The speaker on the bottom is fully exposed that way and it is plenty loud for me.

 

Monte, let me borrow your wallet.

 

Ya that's true. Was thinking about getting am external speaker so I could shove it back for a cleaner look.

Did you route the power strait to the battery too? I heard mark said to do that or something

 

Yup, less interference/noise issues that way. Gotta remember to turn the thing off tho if you wire it that way.

 

Sounds good. Can't wait to get it hooked up.

I got a 5' fire stick and some nice cable with some cool mounting hardware

 

This

 

muhahahahahaah monte id switch you wallets but i think we'd just end up the same

 

Don't look at my next post then haha

HAHA!! Like when you am I had all the raffle tickets hahahaha

Bunch on work on the truck today. Big update to follow

 

i dont know what your talking about

 

Alright guys

Took the bed off today





Then I removed the spare tire carrier as I don't need it anymore



Anyone need a new tire winch? It works great...




Cab time! New and old






Cut out an hunch from the rolled cab




Sadly it's not for tubbing..

Here is the unrolled cab also cut..but smaller



Cunk that was cut out



May or may not have lit it on fire..



Okay so ya it did



Welded up. Tim did it(not timicha)



Welded the other side too



Enlarged the tranny hole



Welded up the mount bracket



Got started on my pinch weld trimming as well




So tomorrow the cab goes on the truck!


Also got some more bed rack lights I like lights

 

o.o
i wanna play too

 

Come on down haha I. Not going anywhere anytime soon lol

 

Interesting. Looks like your spare tire carrier adjusts to fit to the size of the spare. Mine is a fixed/one piece deal.

So did you just decide to patch up the bad areas instead of removing the whole top of the cab?

 

Ya I noticed that too and thought it strange cause I thought you had to modify them to fit a 33. But looks like mine would fit one as is...

And yes after more discussion we decided this way was fastest as that's what we really need to get done.

I WAMT MY TRUCK BACK! Lol

 

I've got a great idea for your old cab.

Turn it into a bed like Ricky Schroder's race car one in Silver Spoons.
