    bought a defiant lightbar and three kragen HID's truck stayed like this for about a year and a half or two years. Learned alot about working on my truck. Mashed on my truck like this everywhere from the deserts, mountains to the snow took it all but i knew i wanted LT so i jsut kept saving. Bought and did all this when i was 17-18 y/o

    October 2009 finally get to really start building my truck


    Mon 10-19-09 took my truck over to my buddys house monday took the bed off stored it on the trailer and installed a new AFE dry filter intake.

    tues/wed/thurs- cut all the front and rear hangers off, got dmz's tacked up, got the leafs and spring perches mocked up all we need to do now is shorten the drive shaft set the pinion angle and build a bedcage.
    10-19-09


    1022091605_9f9056fc045aaa2a131f1a5fda03c04386f99267.jpg

    cleaning up the frame, getting ready to weld the shackle hangers on.

    1022091655a_2fbc96087d3b00e8f187a4582c45cc2a309b79e0.jpg



    hangers all welded up nice and pretty.

    1022091821a_c78593ab25685c98e6eb535d756db3951f63ecb3.jpg

    started layin down some tube. The bedcage is going to be all bolt on. Those 2x2 pieces between the the bed bolt thingys are just there acting as a spacer they wont be there later on there just making up for the space that the bed would take up if that makes any sense haahha.
