Hey you've been talking about how one day when you got your new motor that you were going to backhalf your truck just wondering how your going to do this are you going to do it your self and also are you using a 4 link and coilovers or what just wondering cuz thinking in the future of something along those lines. if anyone else knows i'll take your opinion too

I plan on purchasing all the parts or a kit (not sure yet) and taking it too a chassis shop for the work. I truely lack the skill and experience in this arena, so I'll leave this to a pro.

For now i'm looking at Comp Engineerings components because I can get these at a very reasonable price. 4 link and coilovers are what I plan on. Since I have been working on the new bed layout for the fuel tank relocation and battery housing I have also made accomodations for the raised bed floor and mini-tubs. I don't plan on having this stage of modifications done for some time...may-june next year (I'm tring to find a complete bed I can work with without destroying mine)

From what I can tell this will be the most extensive part of the truck project to date.

Next time I go down to my dad's house, I will get the name and number of the place if you want? I remeber seeing a bed that was off of a truck the last time I drove by there.

I'll have to check that out...do you recall the name of the yard?

 

I will check on it, hopefully by the end of the week.

 

good luck finding a cheep bed. when i wrecked my truck every body wanted around 3000$. even for a used bed.
