Nice stuff!!

Thanks .....

Exactly .... my main concern is the body and the mechanical part .... as soon as my axles are under the truck i will be able to order my split rim double beadlock from Stazworks .... can't wait to have my 11.00r20 on the truck !!!

And after 4hours of works .......


My other MV ( 1964 404 UNIMOG ), sitting next to the home and waiting for the m715


Next week end will be final cleaning and painting with a base of POR-15 than OD ... then reinstall new parts including brake all around with stainless lines.

Some updates .... i just went to the bodyshop this afternoon





And look what they found ...... 16" star under the paint !!

There ya go...good for you!!!!

In the meantime ... painting all my part with POR-15 and then when it's still tacky i'm applying a coat of Krylon OD paint ... IT's look very nice and seems to be very resistant ... i drop a caliper from my hand directly on my driveway ..... you cannot see where the caliper touch the ground .... i will do my entire drivetrain and frame this way ... permanent fix.

The dodge d60 and the gm ¾t for the rear brake conversion

If you use POR-15, be certain to use their tie-coat primer. If not, all of the hard work of painting you've done will flake off soon afterward.

I found out the hard way with my floors, after I POR-15ed them then used the spray on bedliner. It started coming off after about 2-3 weeks.

Thanks for the advice but i never use any primer and i always had good quality job without any drawbacks .... i just apply the por-15 directly over the brushed surface.

If you prime and paint while its still tacky it should stick.

This is what we are presently working on .... 2 pieces beadlocks ... everything home made .... I want the Stazworks wheel but not ready to paid the price $2000 .... so this is only a prototype .... but it's working good .... Talk about everything custom ..... built not bought !!!
