Jerretxx: Something out of nothing, my 84 build

awesome! can't wait to see how this turns out

 

thanks man

 

I meant to post this the other day, how it looked pre-lift

 

i think its awesome that you can and did the work but honestly i think you shoulda took more out of them

 

the reason i didn't take more is because i wanted to keep the factory outside handle and mirror, but also, we measured it to the perfect arm rest height

 

^ new bench seat installed (Thanks to chris at MARSFAB off road)



^ SS Trail-Gear Brake lines (Thanks to damion at MOBSFAB)

 

Hooked up new tail,stop, and turn lights. Also was able to hook up my aftermarket temp gauge

 

installed the SS brake lines, but I need to get a new master cylinder. also ordered new front fenders, should be here in the next few days, and also my girlfriend ordered me steelies for my birthday!!!! finally, I am getting my tires next saturday from my friend alove0750, the truck is coming together smoothly, all that is left is to fab up the bed, order shackles, and paint it!

 

I also meant to add that the half doors are almost finished, just need to do a little more bondo and sanding and they will be complete

 

hey man, sorry to just be getting back to you, i am changing the brake lines bc they only had about 1" of slack, i went with the SS trail-gear ones. also I am going to change my shackles as well bc the rear one is put at a awkward angle bc of the leafs

 

I got my new fenders in this afternoon. Bought them from my buddy matt at Halls body shop, great guys to deal with! I went with fenders off of a 1984 toyota 2WD, yes I am putting 2wd fenders on a 4wd. I put 2wd because they do not flare so they are a little narrower. Ill post pics tomorrow once I get them installed

 

Finally finished up one half door. turned out good IMO. I put some bondo to smooth out the imprefections and make them look sleek when it is painted. Not too bad considering I only have $6.77 in them

 

So i have the fenders mounted. I bought fenders for a 1985 pickup 2WD and they mounted up PERFECT, im very pleased with the result. Also I mounted up a half door just to see how it looked, and i must say im impressed with them as well.






thanks for the pictures alove0750!

 

I smell success... x4

 

It's been a successful night!

 

mmm fresh paint.
