omg what is taking so long this thead is forever blah blah blah... hahaha... im just giving **** like i get from my build.
looks great man, very impressed and what people fail to realize that if you do things right it takes TIME... waiting for parts, doing work in your spare time - before and after your regular job. Anyone can throw on a couple of mods, then bitch when parts break that they didnt upgrade in the first place - i know, i was one of the people.
looking good, keep up the good work.

holy crap an update!
well after a little over a month I took Sunday off to relax and work on my truck, didn't get TOO much done, but back on track.
Tubbed the otherside of the firewall, raised the factory tub of course


Clearance

Full lock at 2" ride height, not that it matters since I wouldn't be able to turn that much with fenders, but just goes to show I made them wide enough to allow adequate turning

Started on the fenders, bought two brand new OEM fenders, and proceeded to drill the spot welds out and start cutting.


Test fit and marked for height

Cut and now to the special part, ordered two pre-99 inner fenders, going to try to make them work. They taper to quickly so they sit pretty high here, but I'm going to try to modify them. I actually have them installed opposite also, drivers on passenger. Worked better that way.
