My A project

I like it! Great chassis work! The front crossmember is bitchin! You KNOW I have to like that front crossmember!! Keep the posts comin' man!

 

looks good

 

Very nice. Love the tunnel ram!

 

That's a wicked looking frame.

Well I am still in the process of chopping it, I started out thinking of doing a 4" inch chop, but after taping it off I decided on a 5". I love the stance now. I had some problems with the passanger side rear lining back up. I couldn't have done it without the help of Conner, DOC, John, amd Tyler. Tyler got the fun task of welding a trillion little welds, John helped line the passanger side back up and made the releif cuts. DOC can grind, and Conner was in charge.

Go check out the rest of the pictures here.

Looks pretty low.....have you set the engine in to see how much further it drops???

 

We are installing the motor and trans next week. We may need to raise it up a little.

 

Looking good, I like some of your frame ideas. And I am glad I am not the only people will give shit about scoops!!

 

It'll be running taller tires, those are just rollers. That I will be getting back soon, right Todd?... Todd?

 

I was looking at the Hurst tires. I like the 30x10x15. I am looking for some 15x8 5-4 3/4 with a three inch backspace steel smoothie rim. I can special order the but they will take 30-45 days. Any help....

Contact Jason at Early wheel company,(http://www.earlywheel.com/)
he builds them to order, and has a 2 day turn around to ship.

 

Good job finding those. I was at a loss for suggestions of what to run, those are perfect. Black wall too! I've been looking for some cheap trailer tire style copies of some pie crust black walls for some other projects too.

 

Just caught this thread, and all I can say is saweet - looks like your doing a hell of a job - any word if it'll make roundup??

 

If Todd doesn't take it, I am!
