progress on the truck is SLOWWWWW
in all honesty, this will most likely happen in late jan/ early feb
been slamming on house projects, work, and holiday fun!
but i have douched the entire yard, and 90% of random car parts are where they are supposed to be!!!

i still cant bring myself to scrap my 10.5 Sterling axles lol

there just the semi floating axle shafts.
the 01 CC SB frame is going under the bronco when all is said and done,
hopefully with 37's so it would be smart to keep them i think....
the 01 cab is going on a 02 F350 DRW frame.

actually just got a sponsor and a spot next year @ SEMA!!!
gotta slam this project out!

For what it's worth, late January may be doable for me, but I'm out of town for the first part of February. But, I'm just one person...you gotta do what you gotta do. If I can't make it, I'll be there in spirit ;Sweet

ok fellas, i am slow at all this truck building..lol
you know the saying " lifes a ....."

instead of having a "firing it up" party, im going to throw this get together when it comes time to installing this engine.
not really trying to host, cook, charge batteries, do this , do that, and not spend 100% concentration on the engine i just slaved over.

itll be much more relaxing to BBQ, drink, bs, slap a engine and a trans in.
no " oah i gotta wait for this, or that"
with a new build, in my experience, theres always that 1 thing that can set you back until the next day.

i really want this project done before april.
i will update when i have a good date.
