Wow, it's a way bigger job to put a CV in those trucks than a dentside! Fascinating.

 

^^ Yeah there is a bit more to it. Of course I'm complicating things a bit myself!

Cut the bushing end off of the FatMan uppers and drill/tap for 3/4" Heims. Got one done tonight.

Such nice work, I think the majority of us are just looking at this with our jaws on the floor

 

You are right about that! This is awesome work.

 

Thanks Guys!

 

That’s some beautiful work .

 

Wow! Very nice!

 

I'm going to grind/smooth the welds on the side plate with the holes,hell if I welded them a little better I could just leave em.

 

Your to hard on yourself Brian.
It looks like a very nice job you are doing and a lot of work!
What is the reason for the holes anyways? It can’t just be for lightning?
Looks killer, although I liked the drop beams, the conversion should be awesome when done.
Did you sell the beams?

 

Great fab work Brian, but I wouldn't expect anything less looking at your other posts.

 

Thanks Guys. The boxing plates were just ugly and looked unfinished,so my fix was to cut out and weld in a new piece. The holes were an afterthought to improve the look. I had planned on grinding the welds on that piece thinking it'd just look better smooth...so when I welded them I did it in 2-3" runs. Now that they're done,if had welded in one run,I'd prob not grind.

If you missed it in post 14, here's what the plates looked like:

 

Kind of,have a bud that wants em. Still have the 3" springs.

 

I think you did the right thing with the plates. I do the same thing, even with the holes, which I assume no one will ever see.
