ordered the vanity plate two weeks ago, now I just have to back it up!


making slow progress, got a pile of small stuff to go to powdercoat, spacers are made for the old body style 14 bolt to mount the dual piston tahoe/yukon brakes. Just finished welding the tubes to the housing and setting up pinion angle to weld on new perches



Was gonna hold out for 22's but got a deal on chrome 18's with 9 miles on them. $300 craigslist special! i figured for the price wheels are the easiest thing to change later, just need something to roll the truck around with for now.



should have some major progress pics coming soon

Damn clean. Great project.

What width tires are those on the esco 18s? They look pretty wide.

Also, that RCSB looked like it was clean as hell when you got it. Mind divulging how much you paid for it? Thanks.
