    Pretty much done. Still need to burn on the sliders and a few more small things but its just about done.

    Thanks man! I'm sure she'd love it as much as my wife does.

    Thanks, I do get a few odd looks when I drive it!

    They feel great on and off road. They are about 3/4" short though. I noticed that when I was putting the leafs in. In a few months, after the leafs are broke in, I plan on moving the shocks. Thinkin about moving the shock to the top of the axle and fabing new shock towers so the shocks are like this, l l. Probably have to go through the bed to do so.

    Good looking build man, your wife is a lucky lady. Makes me want to put armor on my truck, but i dont offroad much, too afraid of breaking it.

    My wife drives my truck more than i do, i asked her if she wanted to sell her infinite to buy a 2012, her response "no, i will just drive yours...."

    Have you accented the inside, or done any custom to it at all?

    How about moving the shocks outboard the frame rails up into the fender wells? Should be able to gain shock mounting height without cutting the bed that way I think.

    You can wheel your truck on mild trails without much worry of breakage. Gotta get to the remote camping spots that way! Nope nothing done but the floor mats on the inside.

    That's what I'm thinking, but I think I'll still need to have em come through the bed. They'll be above the wheel wells though so they won't take up any bed space. I need to hurry and finish her truck though, I want to start building my '82!

    Haven't touched the truck for a while started to reorganize the garage to make room for more shop tools and decided I needed to finish insulating and sheetrocking it too. So I got the door and last 2 walls insulated now I have to hang the sheetrock and re-reorganize the garage! I need to build a welding cart/table too. Once I've gotten the garage done I'll wire up the winch and build a bracket for the solenoid.Hopefully I'll be done soon, I really want to start building my '82!

    Nice truck man, I like it... I got most of the cosmetics done one mine minus my light bar (on top of cab) my bull bar, 6 KC lights, and I'm trying to find full replacement front amd back bumpers...... After that im replacing my suspension, and putting full skid plates underneath... My wife wants me to get her one also.... Haven't decided if I'm gonna put my build on hold and get her one or if I'm gonna make her wait to until I'm done....

    This build has been awesome to read, your work is fantastic.

    Definately given me a few ideas, you're helping the TW community by showing them how it's done!

    It's been awhile since I've done anything to the truck. Been a busy summer and haven't been wheelin much at all. We went this past weekend and with the back window open we kept hearing a clunking other than the D-shakles. Turned out to the factory tire carrier loosened up some. So I took it off!
