Cody's 2002 build "The Tank"

Either way, chop it off and SAS/SAC

 

haha dude silas like i said that was years ago. it's in the first page of my build.

the SAS was put on hold thanks to life, but i'm about to start collecting parts!

 

Crud...... Lol sorry, bro! Scared me though.....

Crap..

 

also i just realized there more broken images. thanks facebook, QUIT CHANGING YOUR DAMN HOSTING SERVERS.

 

you should have known from the tire size atleast that it wasn't a recent pic!

 

How the hell did I miss that?

Nice comeback Semper Gumby

 

no idea hahaha.
he's still punching bugs in the face too. it's my little sisters favorite part of the truck so he'll be there for a very long time

 

here's a few more from the other night.

 

That last pic looks like it came straight off of a Hollywood movie set!

 

i wish they would have came out better, it was my friends new camera and neither of us knew any of the settings or how to tweak them lol. also we needed a tripod.. a trashcan upside down can only go so far ha

 

i've been thinking about designing an led bar all day. i've got parts picked out i'm just contemplating on trying this.

it'll be dual colored. amber and white. considered doing a triple color with blue too.

anyways, about 9 watts per led and 4 or 5 leds in a 7" bar. so 36 or 45 watts for a 7" bar.
still getting specifics down but the more i think about it the more i want to do this.

 

also that's wattage not including the LED drivers

 

Hey what backspacing are you running for those 37's? and how much frame rub are you getting?

 

17x9 with 2.5bs.
i rub on the right side because of bad alignment.

 

i post notes and ideas in my own thread to myself. haha.

thinking about an expo trailer because when i do my tube bed over the next few months i'm going to lose my bed space.

i'm so anal about things i'm going to want watching tires.. so my trailer would have 37"s. that seems insane for a 4cyl so i'm thinking my options. 35"s wouldn't look terrible. 37"s would be fine if i was turbo'd or the v6.
not that i'm trying to get crazy good MPGs, i accepted shitty MPGs a while ago haha. but i don't want to have to put it in 2nd just to get up a hill on the highway.

also as fun as it would be to start on a military trailer, odds are i'm going to build this thing from scratch.

</self_notes>

 

Subd for this ^

 

okay saaaaoooo.
tube bed is on hold. finally talked myself out of it. i may as well do it when i'm ready to link the rear with the 14bolt.

which means.... DA TRAILER! goal is to have it done by the end of the year. we've got a harlan trip planned and it would make me so happy to be able to have my 4cyl begging for mercy hauling a big ass trailer behind her up the mountain.
i've been drawing since about this time yesterday and figuring out exactly what i'm wanting in it.
i'll start a build thread later tonight though i won't have any real progress for a few weeks.

 

after seeing jason's trailer build i'm pumped to see how yours comes out!

 

he may or may not have helped to jumpstart me too.. but living up to his will be hard.
