Slodgetto's Green Dragon 4x4 Conversion Build

I'd actually go raptor liner. Easy to use and is epic hard and lasts a long time. I'm not impressed with the roll dupilcolor. I do like their rattle can better then rustolium tho.

Looks good man!

 

Yeah, man. Do it. Actually I don't recommend Duplicolor though... seems to be holding up but it had sorta an uneven texture... Hurculiner is no bueno.... I'd say Monstah bed-liner or someting nice if you can afford it.

 

x2 Heard good things about raptor liner as well... I tried a duplicolor rattle can and it clogged on me with only 50% used... Maybe I just had a bad can

Thanks, dude!

 

nice, man.

 

What I noticed with the Rattle cans I used for my fenders, if you actually hold the can upside down and spray you get a more even texture and hardly any runs, and you can use the whole can. Seems weird I know but it works.

 

Interesting.. I'll have to give that a try!

 

I'm content.

 

Looks bad ass man

 

droop looks like a couple inches more!
now question... you moved your bump stop closer to the tire, and moved the pad a little more inward. and while flexed your hitting the edge of the pad, what happens if the axle goes straight up and bumps? (not articulating, full bump on both sides)

 

^i don't know how that could even happen without him jumping his truck

 

i guess im just used to the prerunning style. his springs are pretty soft though right? and ride height is pretty low, seems like it could happen with a little speed and a bump, or a couple woops?

 

maybe! i mean my junk isn't nearly as soft as his and even with the bed weighed down quite a bit i've never came close to that.
^haha i just reread what i wrote and i'm cracking up. clean mind clean mind.. baha!

 

Thanks, man..

Yeah... got a few more inches. Won't get any more until the springs are broken in. Because of the very little uptravel on this set-up, and because the creeper joints tend to push the axle towards the stuffed side during articulation, the bumps are actually hitting very close to the pads in the same spot that you see in the picture during straight up-down travel.

And yeah... even with putting the third leaf back in there, it's pretty soft. Albuquerque roads are absolutley terrible, and I know for a fact that I hit the bumpstops once or twice going over some asphalt "woops." lol

SMH!!!!!

 

haha so true. periodically, i feel like im pre-runnin on the streets

 

I really wanna do an e-locker hahaha............

 

Just buy a TRD locker from a junkyard

 

Hmm. Junkyard 8" e locker axle or 8.4" lockright/ARB

 

Do it, man... I'll keep my eye out for anyone selling one. Might be able to score one with better gearing as well. 4.10 would be fine, for you on 32's, I think.

 

You should go drive up and down Gibson right by the airport runway. Good times with my OME setup!
