HawsFF59 Build

I thought Id start here... Lurking since 2010

This is kinda when the addiction began. Well after I put a spacer lift and my first set of tires (305/70R16 bighorns)
Then:

For Now:

 

Even with most saying it couldn't be done I started prepping for 37's

Not these:



These

 

It took a fair amount of work though


Crawler Body lift (room for the Marlin crawl box) so shut it!!

 

Then some trimming


Flares


Yep I'm doing this


No turning back now

 

Now time to cut some metal




And after

 

Still need to do a little cleaning up but a good start

 

Not quite there yet

 

Coil spacers suck! So I grabbed a set of these

 

Haha good start man! Looking real good. I too cut my fenders. Did 2.5" all the way around.

 

Thanks man!
Pretty scary mod cutting into a new truck, but it wasn't all that bad. I did this about three years ago and am just now starting a build thread.

 

Hahaha yeah bro definitely a little nerve wracking. How'd you do it? I used a Dremel. Took a while but was precise. Better late than never on the build thread! Good work.

 

Dewalt cordless jigsaw with new blades. Really easy to control

 

Then there was this ugly thing thats always in the way

So I moved it and made a few improvements


Wonder whats behind here?

 

This was just a prototype. We Just recently revamped it after two years for an easier install.

Also got ride of that ugly body lift puck

 

WAYYYYYY more room



This is a test fit: 385/75/16 Toyo MT I think its close to a 38.5x15R16


Lots of up room, but I would need to crank it up in the front and Im not a big fan of the heavy Toyo MT's

 

Holy crap those are huge!!!

 

Hmm... I hope I can put this puzzle back together

 

Still waiting on a PM from you on that cab mount relocate plate, I think Craig (HomerTaco) and myself are 100% committed.

 

Its finally up and moving again. He sent the CAD out to be laser cut, and then bent. We have the new updated version on the driver side now. (nothing wrong with the original just trying to make the install a bit easier) As soon and I get the passenger side back we will weld it on, and if all fits right ill ship Craig his first. Id like to wait for his install and make sure all goes right before I start taking orders.

 

Well I know you would like to wait, but my cab mount is fucked lol it couldn't get much worse. But I've waited this long, I can wait some more
