    This. You can find someone to do it cheaper but this is a job that is easy to f-up.

    I heard a saying that (I'm very sure) applies here.

    You can have it 2 of 3 ways. Pick any 2 you want.

    Fast
    Cheap
    Quality

    Then again as fast as this build is happening you probably have time to find the cheap and quality builder who will spend 3-6 months getting it built. :luvya:

    Keep up the work, I enjoy checking in on this build every so often.

    Pretty sure I'm just about done with the porting. Gotta make sure everything is done evenly.

    Cylinder #1 (?) Before and almost done :rolleyes:

    [​IMG]DSC09822 by wyo_taco45, on Flickr

    The rest of 'em look pretty much the same.

    I also removed some of the razor edges on the top side.

    Was easier than I thought it would be. All I used was a die grinder with a spherical stone, some HF sanding cartridges, and some polishing compound.

    haha IIRC I was pretty shit-faced at the time on that awesome whiskey you brought. :luvya:

    I'm not to serious on buying one as I have full access to a hydraulic bender at work. But if I could find a decent one for a few hundred I figured it would be nice to have.

    I hear ya. I just don't want to drop $600 on a tool that I wouldn't use much.


    Back to your badass build now John :cool:

    Yeah, I can only think of about 5-6 tubes I need to bend, which is also my hesitation on buying one.

    I want to see more pics of the truck! Last one I saw of the rear looked so bad ass lol

    Had I not already bought the JD2, I would've defintely gone this route. And they're straight out of Dubois, Wyoming. :cool:

    I don't have many pictures of the truck, particularly because it's been sitting like this since October. :anonymous:

    And if things couldn't get any worse, I've been toying with the idea of switching to an auto trans. If I can somehow convert it to shift solely by manual means (paddle shifters), I'd probably go for it.

    Yeah, I'd like to get it done sooner, but honestly I'd say 2017. The engine mods alone (not including stuff on the list below) will be well over $5k, possibly $6k. I could probably get the engine done and a lot of the little BS done by this summer, but I still have some high dollar items I still need to get.

    Off the top of my head-

    Front/rear ARBs and R&Ps
    Front axle shafts
    ECU
    Turbo manifold
    Turbo
    Intercooler
    Intake manifold
    Radiator
    Fuel system
    Air compressor
    Seats/safety equipment
    Electrical crap, switches, etc
    Steering
    Sway bar, bumps, straps
    Oh yeah...

    and a FLOOR. :anonymous:
