Adam's 98 5-speed Build

[Jbh97009]

Love this rig!!

I've got a set of those flush mounts too, planning on going in the hatch like that but I want to go farther out.
I've got a spare hatch to practice on so we will see.

Looks great though!

This is still the sanest and nicest build on ... Great truck! Nice fabrication

Thanks man it's no show piece both doors are caved in on the passenger side. I'm trying to decide what I want to do either find some manual black factory doors and armor them or buy or make tube doors.

It would be way easier going further out as there's a curve that you have to account for where I put mine and you have to get creative with the bracing inside the hatch.

ups guy came

Front fender armor and tube flair

Started fitting

Turned out to be a pain so I just pulled the fenders.

This made trimming and fitting and drilling much easier.

Painted in 2 coats of primer and 3 of the top coat of semi gloss black.

Should be in final assembly tomorrow after work.

Hit some minor problems that I need to remedy but they are kind mounted.

Yukon hubs way nicer than my warn premiums.

Did you get those hubs from Dan @ DMR?

Did some stuff replaced warns with yukons.

Changing things up opening up the wheel wells a bit and adding rear tube flairs from the rear bumper sides to my sliders. The new bumper sides will tie into the 1/4 armor and gusseted and braced to the plated unibody. The rear bumper will still be removable. When it's all said and done.

Getting closer

oh i see now. Not at all what I was envisioning. I thought the tube was bent behind the plate. Nice job.

Wrapping up the back just enough to wheel Rocktoberfest.

I already did a small stretch making room for 37's possibly.

 

[clean4drxj]

My 37's have very little to no issues fitting and I'm in 4.5 springs.
