BlueXJ Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Interesting. I had a buddy a few years back who painted helicopters for the Navy and Air Farce. That was in Georgia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
500 MJ Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 When I first got my 4.5 packs from Rusty's my rear sat REALLY high, WAY over 4.5 inches. This is even after I took the lowest leaf out of them: Now the leaf is back in. After two years and alot of loads of firewood I'm probably now riding at the advertised 4.5 height... Some guys on here are having problems with them breaking, so far mine have held up OK and they are nice and supple for good articulation. Truck looks good, all the Best on the rest of the buildup. - Brent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garyindiane Posted October 1, 2009 Author Share Posted October 1, 2009 Well I recieved my full guage panel I got off e-bay.

A '91 cluster is not the same as the '87 to '90 clusters. :nuts: Willy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garyindiane Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 Some pics of the OBA setup. It consist of a some twin cylinder belt driven compressor my boss gave me. It does real well, and it stays pretty cool. The check valve and relay/pressure switch are from viair. 85 PSI on 110 PSi off. Front bumper is my tank. I still want to get a air manofold to clean everything up.

BPB Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Do you plan on adding protection for your front corners? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyindiane Posted October 9, 2009 Author Share Posted October 9, 2009 Do you plan on adding protection for your front corners? No not at the moment. Basically anything I encounter on a front corner will hit the tire first, or it will hit the center bumper section which is nice for my approach angle. I would like to add a center skid plate to protect my draglink and swaybar. I am more concerned with high centering it. I need to fab up some rocker armor. -gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garyindiane Posted October 31, 2009 Author Share Posted October 31, 2009 Ok. I started another project ( like I needed one ). It's a cargo basket that fits flush in between the bed rails. I made it so I can store all my gear and haul wood at the same time. Kinda like a roof rack for the bed. Still need to put a floor in it and have it blasted and painted. I really wanted to get rid of that POS plastic toolbox. so here is the pics. 55"X24". 3/8 poop pipe. 2"X1/4" Flat.

garyindiane Posted November 8, 2009 Author Share Posted November 8, 2009 Finished the rack thing install. I used 3/8 eye bolts so I could use them a tie down points.
