truck looks awesome! What did you use to smooth the corners around your rear bad pockets you made in the frame?

Flap disk, just takes the edge off the weld, very little material removal mainly just to shape it

I was thinking it would be slick to have your tailgate look normal when closed and then meet even with your new raised bed floor when open. I came up with a quick and dirty sketch on one way that might be done. Im sure it would take some math and tweaking to get right but it could be worth it.

GMracer 03-23-2011 07:41 PM

Crazy, great minds think alike. Ive had that up my sleeve the entire build.

Few updates, not much progress due to work, side work and buying a home. But I hope to have some time to get this thing done soon.

First off the brakes, huge thanks to fullthrottledan who welded these hats up for me. Moser redrilled them.

Going to have to run flush mounts up front to clearance on the caliper

I'm building two air tanks that will sit between the body mounts under the rocker. I'm using heavy wall due to them being so close to the ground

Couple of the firewall and trans tunnel I'm working on
