New England Mod & Meetup Thread:

Most of the time I agree. But it’s built for his purpose. He wanted a good looking bumper to hold backup lights for when he is towing his boat

 

I would but I don't think I'll have any parts by then

 

I could maybe do the 28th but tbd. I might be spent by Sunday. Where were you thinking?

 

Ma bell, spot us drew

 

I think I'll sit this one out.
Any update on the truck?

 

Yeah, Dennis and I are flying to Chicago next Saturday and driving one back.

You still doing the 2.5 front end conversion?

 

Yep, one of the few mods left to do on this. Probably start it in about a month. Have most of the big money items just need the little pieces

 

Looks like you're going to have a stockpile of parts. That things pretty done up

 

No deep water, I'm in...

If it's MaBell, I'll swing by and pick you up.

 

Lol I could do that. You might want to wait for it to dry up some though lol. I also haven't been up there since they put the signs up

 

Works for me

 

If it's mabell I'll be a morning of decision. I'm going out to NY Friday, up to Boston Saturday, so i might be cooked for Sunday

 

Have a chop kit on order?

 

First purchase once I start selling some parts. Gusseted spindles, roof racks, rear shock relocate, tons of skids… I have lots of stuff. I should make a thread.

 

Good call, if someone local buys your spindles I am very interested in a stock set. Perhaps @Brownmatthall.

I want to figure out a jig to weld them and make sure they are straight after welding.

 

He can’t afford them right now,,, he’s saving up for my bumper

and what would make you think Matt’s spindles are straight?

 

Ok you have a fair point…..

 

Don't forget they need to be preheated

 

Yep, i think I’ll be able to do it but selling something I don’t know is straight and true to someone just ain’t right. Even if I am convinced my process is right.
