Cap City Build & BS AF

Hey Chad - couple questions for you. Love the wheel set up. Are you still running spacers? Or are you sitting so wide just due to offset and BS? Any rubbing? How much space do you have between the UCA and the tire?

I ask because I'm rubbing slightly on my UCA's with 35s, and your stance looks wide enough to fix that.

Thanks!

 

You running after market upper control arms?

Thanks for the compliment! NO spacers on the truck

The wheels are
17x9
3.5 backspace
-38 offset

The fronts poke out an extra .75" per side due to my Maxtrac lift spindles

They rubbed pretty good. did a CMC and some flare trimming and thats all been taken care of






Pics just for reference

 

Like they told us in the Army....you won't hear the one that kills you.

 

Planes, Trains, and Automobiles.

I liked trains as a kid, still love planes today, and we're talking over a truck forum. Life is good

 

What page were the crash pics on? I cant find them just skimming.

 

Don't forget the watercraft! My great grandfather (on fathers side) was a first mate/ships carpenter on Ohio Rivet steam boats back in the day. He rode the last wooden hull tow boat on the Ohio just after WWII.

O yeah i saw those. Thought maybe you had pics of all the damage you did. ie. carport, bike, etc

 

Will get some tonight ​

 

Are they going to straighten existing roof or cut it all apart and install new roof skin?

That's a pretty rigid point in the roof with the formed roll. You must have bopped it a good one.

I haven't attended the CapCityAF thread in a while...
What's being done to the White Shadow III with devil horns?

 

Dropping the headliner and reshaping from the inside is all I was told.

Yeah, got to give credit to my bike. thats one solid mofo

 

She went into the shop for some repairs

Backed into my carport with the bike on the bed bars

Crunch!

 

OK I got caught up ...

 

I knew when it got Lifted, Trouble was on the rise....

 

That's the best (least traumatic) way to fix it. All things equal, less filler (bondo) than cutting roof pillars. And everything stays straight around door openings.

 

I would have them add some dynamat while they have the headliner dropped.

 

Hahaha!!!!

 

Exactly my thinking! ​

Seriously considered it

Dont have to funds to get a roll tho
