I don't post here very much anymore but I had to sign in and say that this thing is fricking cool. I love the build keep it up.

Looks great!! Keep the pics a coming. And remember to always wear your respirator. Even if it is a quick job enough quick jobs and next thing you know you can't breathe. Your health is worth more then any car and since this is how you support your family take care of yourself.

Love this build. I will keep my eye on this one. If you didn't have to swap the fender and door I would say paint under the hood a nice and prety then leave the outside for a later date. The patina on the paint is cool.

I know you do this stuff to make ends meat but I really envy you. I did collision repair for about 8 years before joining the Army and I have a love for it and I can't wait to start on my SS/T. But you do such good work with what you have to work with. Post more pics please. I enjoy all of your...

Don't be sad. As long as something is learned that can help carry on our hobby.

I would have bought the stripes a long time ago but the truck needs to be painted and I didn't want to waste $300 just to pull them back off to paint. Also I was gonna do the slider but I was advised to only use a Mopar one. I was told all of the aftermarket ones leak and I don't want to waste...

Yeah I got a sweet deal from from this cool *** guy I know online.

And this brings us to today. I had to go into to work this morning and do PT but then I was off the rest of the day, so I was off at 0730. I came home and my little one was sick so my wife and I took her to the doctor then it was time to get more parts off the shelf. On the list for...

So yesterday I really needed some me time so I decided I would swap on my 52mm throttle body. You can see the difference between the stock and modified TBs when you look at the section between the butterflies. You can see how much was taken out when it was opened up from 47-48mm to full...

So on the 2nd I went to Dover Delaware to receive my best friends remains. Was the hardest thing I have ever done, up until that point in my life. So after I came home I remember that my friend had made a comment on my Facebook page about my truck and how clean it was and he could still see...

The next day I received the phone call that my best friend was KIA in Afgahnistan. That pretty much ruined any motivation I had for working on the truck. However I did decide that I have to keep myself busy go ahead and put on my Mopar Performance air cleaner and Accel Kool Blue filter. Looks...

Ok so on August 31 I finally got to take the truck to the dyno and drag strip. I have been waiting to swap any parts until after I get some base line HP numbers and 1/4 times. So for the dyno it put down 192/240 which isn't as high as I would have liked but when you factor in that it was a...

Well today was a pretty good day. A local junkyard had a $20 all you can carry day, the catch is you have to be able to physically carry it over the scales about 30 feet. So I went early and packed my tools in my backpack with my wish list in hand. I was going for a set of stock spindles, and...

Ok now for the biggest improvement that is currently being developed. I am doing a big brake swap on the front to use 08 Ram front rotors and 04 Porsche Boxster S 4 piston Brembo calipers. I currently have the calipers. They were bought separately and one is freshly rebuilt and the other will...

As some of you know a cracked windshield can turn even the best vehicle into a miserable driving experience. So a new windshield was in order.

I also got my carpet installed but I can't find the pics for some reason so I will move on. I installed my tach as well. Now I know I know why does a truck need a shift light? Answer. Why doesn't a truck need a shift light?

Well I guess it is time to update this a little. I finally managed to get the issue with the wet passenger floorboard fixed. After driving the SS/T all the way to KY and back with no real issues other then the oil fill cap coming off the floor was soaked. I mean you could smack the carpet and...

Could have been a suregrip. You could get those in the 7.25 I believe.

Looking good. Tic Toc the clock is ticking.

That would be cool if it isn't any trouble.

Updating my Shutterfly account with all of the new pics since I got home almost a month ago. Dropping the truck off in the morning to get an alignment so I can really feel the difference the new and improved front end and altitude has made. I will be having the front bumpstops removed and the...

You are the man!! Thank you so much for the info I will be looking for a set soon.

One more for ya Mike.

Sneak peak of the drop. Finished it last night. I replaced all ball joints, tie rods, idler arm, pitman arm, all new Prothane bushings, 3 inch Belltech coil springs, and Belltech rear hangers. Needs an alignment still but the steering is very responsive now and when I turn the wheel it turns...

Leanna I am in Paducah for the next week until I head back to NC.

Are those the plastic liners for the rear? I have never thought of those but I wil definitely look for them now. Good idea. Found out earlier that I get to drive it all the way to western KY 650 miles one way on Sunday.

Dang Cliff that thing will be on the road before too long won't it. Moving fast and I would like to thank the great members we have here for all that they are doing to help. What can I do to help?

Went today and picked up my Craigslist score. I bought a Century fiberglass bed cover over in Rock Hill SC for $140, from what I can find the cheapest Century cover is over a grand new so I think for the price I can afford to get it painted to match.

Well I spent little time on the truck yesterday. Not getting in a big hurry and I am still getting caught up with the family. Truck has left the driveway once since Thursday and that was last night for a test drive to see if my check engine light was gonna come back on, it did. I have an idle...

Since you wanted opinions I will give you mine. I would get it up and road worthy first then do the upgrades you want to do. I would take a stock driver over an upgraded non runner. Once it is running and stopping good then worry about the rest.
