Pete M Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 I know it's not an original idea, but I decided that this will be the fix when the rust catches up to me (or I smash them up on the trail, whichever happens first). I think I'll just cut away the outer bedsides of my 88 and add a flat panel and support frame. Maybe with a diamond tread pattern on the flat panel. Maybe even aluminum. :brows: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtyComanche Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 But Pete's won't be. I predict a hackjob of redneck porportions. (No offense ment) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted September 5, 2006 Author Share Posted September 5, 2006 No offense taken. :D I'm all about the clever ideas, not necessarily the high-zoot follow through. :yes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanderin Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Any idea when you might get around to doing this project? My 89 is already too far gone for anything else :cry: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted September 5, 2006 Author Share Posted September 5, 2006 Not until the 90 has a drivetrain in it, and I fix the rear axle in the 88, and well, it might be a long time before I can do it. :( But I wanted to make my thoughts known, just incase it inspires someone else. :thumbsup: In my head I figure it shouldn't be all that hard to do. :brows: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtyComanche Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 You don't need his advice, all you need is the "If in doubt, cut it out" mantra, a 6-pack or two, and some spare blades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
