  1. Lots of good info there. Seems easy enough to reproduce with some time and attention. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  2. Start to finish of a steering swinger Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  3. Started the engine and beam mount crossmember. Then got side tracked and accidently made half the steering system lol. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  4. Indeed! Although I'm hoping for smoothness more than anything Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  5. Progress progress. Will finish up the beam mounts and control arms while waiting on shocks. Then mount shocks, then do steering. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  6. Use good photos of what the shape of Novak headers are to buy some no name ones that are identical. I did that for my LS and ended up getting a set that worked for $88 dollars Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  7. First suspension cylce done tonight. EVERYTHING clears at ride height AND full bump at lock-to-lock. Very pleased with myself and my first ever suspension design outcome. Full speed ahead. PXL_20220304_013925775.mp4 PXL_20220304_014747262.mp4
  8. Another day, some more progress...Tomorrow ill get the crossmember sitting at home, start on the radius arms and some bracing for the crossmember
  9. I do CAD, and then I do CAD, and then I make the part lol Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  10. Progress on the crossmember, need more material but getting there slowly. Radius arm will be mounted in plane with the crossmember and obviously won't be on top of the beam. So it should be a pretty flat angle which will attest to nice road manners. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  11. Getting a crossmember made for the Centermount radius arms Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  12. Just waiting on tools and parts and materials. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  13. Ha! My girlfriend kept coming out to the garage puzzled and asking why I'm just sitting there, its tough to explain to non-car people lol
  14. Just sitting here drooling Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  15. Passenger side stiffener is on, and cleaned up both sides. Next step is to get the passenger beam mount bracket done. Then control arms. Ordered the rod ends for that today. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  16. If I can yes, but worst case scenario I'll get ibp shocks with a bump zone Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  17. Full bump oil pan clearance photos included as well we driver side beam mount is completed. I sure don't like welding the factory steel. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  18. I don't have a good photo, but I jacked up the beam to a near full bump and it was good. I'll make sure the beam is bumped before it contacts. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  19. First half of bracket one done....many to go. Need to fill in near the corner cause I cut it square like a dummy. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  20. So the front will be at 69" WMS and 84" overall width. Pretty on par with most prerunners. Finding a 65"-67" WMS rear axle shouldn't be too hard. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  21. Haha I caught that too after I took the video! I just misspoke but good catch [emoji106] Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  22. Today's progress. Can't weld in the shock tower until the WJ master and booster are fit into place. So hopefully this weekend I can burn in this shock tower and then move to the other side! Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
