I second what Gman0046 said. It has been better in the past. Quite a few cars there but hardly any swap meet. Not much cruising and the most...
You guys may have seen this before or the guy who built it may be on this board. Either way, in case you missed it. The amount of work that went...
Found a cool program to scale from pictures ( Autodesk design review ). Im not sure these porportions are doable but I can come close to this...
Ive decided on 65 degree miter and not to compound it. Im going to cut a 4.5 degree relief in the frame and re weld it just before the kickup. It...
Airbags with maybe 5 -6 inch of travel. So good rule of thumb would be 3-4 inch for rebound to be safe.
Ok great. One more question. How much room do i need between the top of the rear axle and the bottom of the frame for suspension travel?
OJ, you've done this a time or two havent you. Everyting you said make perfect sense. Whats your opinion on the compound frame miter ? I not an...
Okiedokie, I have to agree on the one you posted. Like the slight blue windows, leather interior and steering wheel. Looking at this one I almost...
Scott, both are hard to me. The right perspective at one angle might not look right in another. Going from two dimensions to three is the trick....
Mat, your build defintly helped me out. Tin Can, I think Im shooting for 109. I just have to see where the front end end's up being and how...
WillysRule, perfect! Is that your art work? looks like you just dropped the front mostly. Now i just need to scale it and take the measurements....
Great info here. This looks like where im heading. I really like this but it needs a good 5" chop [IMG] This but lowerd a bit....
Mat, my build is going to be similar to yours. T-5 chopped and channled. Maybe not as much chop. I think the lower the chop the more attitued and...
Tinbender Yeah, im not real fond of extended cab either. I just want to enjoy driving it and not waiting for the next minute to get out of it. I...
Ok I would like to do this to my cab. I dont know how but from what I hear these cabs have very little room when channled and chopped so extending...

Yeah, Don I saw your sons setup and just missed buying his old one. Simpler is better. How does the cen pen ride? I just figured if I was building...
Thats what im looking for. Whats the scary part? Where do you see it failing?
Low, clean ( airbags and watts linkage inside frame and no spring mount on top of frame. Frame is 2x4 and that gives me 4" of hiding a 8" fully...
suicide front end setup with airbags
Ok here goes. I've seen a few airbag suicide setups that use swingarms that seem to make the airbags lopsided when they expand and contract. This...
How much chop do the two 34 cabs above have? they look almost the same. 2" maybe? I think that is a 28-30 ford bed in the second post.
