    Well yesterday was productive on the truck yet hot as shit. I got the passenger side built by duplicating the driver's. For some reason, the passenger came out much cleaner so I made some adjustments to the drivers to clean it up. They are almost duplicates now. Also made the back plate for the top shock mount which served to be tricky. Since the plates are not vertical and tilt out at a slight angle, making the back plate took a little thought but I think I figured it out. There is very little clearance once the bolt and nut are in place but it fits!

    I also moved the shock forward a little to get a little more angle. My primary concern in doing this was for bump travel. I didn't have much bump shaft left at the previous angle. It worked great in a static situation with no bumps but I was concerned about inertia.

    These pictures are from earlier this week. Not from yesterdays work. IMG_3597.jpg IMG_3598.jpg

    Driver's tire drooped, passenger side bumped.

    Looks like I got a little crazy with the plasma cutter. :cookiemonster::bananadead:

    Got quite a bit done yesterday but came short of finishing the work.

    Lower shock mounts are on and welded and I finish welded the hoops. Started painting the completed areas. Need to reassemble the leaf pack and weld the hoops to the frame. Just a few finishing touches that should be done this evening.

    Only took a few picks from yesterday. Too busy trying to make progress.
