2011 access cab overhaul

Thanks

 

Bought a d60 hp front end! Picked it up for a fair price and it came with extra inner and outer axles and all new bearings and seals. I just need to keep pecking away at the parts list.

 

I made it all fit. 15' of scaffolding

 

What material are you running over your cut fenders. Truck looks good man, planning on the Chevy 63's this summer.

 

I used have a little bit of edge molding on it but I currently don't ha e anything. You have to find a very flexible than rubber otherwise it starts to straighten out and not follow the contour.

I used have a little

 

Got my axles. Now I need to go through them and most likely buy chromolly shafts ujoints and spindles and upgrade to 35 spline outers

 

Dayum!

 

Blew my bilstein shocks so I ordered some 12" piggyback king smoothie shocks. I'll get them in a month. Doing the bamf Shock relocation kit too. Didn't really want to spend money on the rear right now but it will be nice until I figure what I'm doing for good.

 

Excited to see progress on those big paper weights (axles)!

I picked up some Bilstein's and OME coils for the front awhile back to shoot for 3", but got too scared about the UCA's and kept the stock coils on the Bilstein's. I netted about 2 1/8" and have sway bar out now, you're crazy on the 3"on the UCA's

but sounds like you bought it w/ those on if I read right.

 

Huge paper weights. Yeah I bought the truck with the front already done. It's not a true 3" in the front. No more than 2.5".

 

Are you still planning on sellg diy kits for that diff armor? Or even just templates so I can get it cut?

 

I'll get you the measurements later this eve. I Never ended up making any other than the one on my truck.

 

That would be great man, thanks! like you said all the other armor for 8.4's are ugly... also love your truck man you've done a lot of the stuff that's on my list.

 

Just secured myself a front axle ready to drop under my truck. Score. More to come.

 

Gathered a bunch of parts for the swap. Ruff-stuff housing with high pinion fj80 carrier and knuckles slee offroad steering arms 4.88 arb locker. I rebuilt the whole thing new arp studs hardware throughout seals races bearings got Links frame plates brackets shocks towers etc. need coilover shocks steering components and a few more things still.

 

Bought a plasma cutter today on Amazon. Under $300 with good reviews. I feel it’s worth the cost to try it out on the swap. It will save a ton of time.

 

It’s officially begun.

 

Ordered some fresh 37x17x12.5 pro comp mt2s today. Pumped!
