getting close to driving

i ordered a rocker. and two gallons of paint. i ordered gillespie's 30277 camo sand. and 30118 camo field drab brown. the both of those including shipping/hazmat came out to $103.

parts and paint should be in by friday

now all i need is the flaires, tail gate, and brush guard.

...and a battery box half?

Very nicely done, man!

[foodstamp]

the battery box is a whole diferent monster. my idae for the battery box is im going to line it with undercoating on the inside, drill a hole in the bottom and put a valve in to make it into a ice box the valve will let the melted water drain out, and ill be able to use it for more than a ice chest. this might be a cool camping rig. i also plan on making a canvas cover for the bed, so i can put a matress in the back, and for cold nights i think i might rig up a wood burning stove. the last time i went caming in tahoe the tent i was in held 10 blow up beds and had a wood burning stove it was the coolest tent ive seen.

I have a couple Fisherman fabbed brush guards left if your interested. Things are coming together nicely. Keep the pictures coming.

[foodstamp]

sweet rig, alot of hard work there, what did you use for the clutch linkage?

[foodstamp]

militarytrux. i just seen your thread. i used the gm hydrolic clutch. workes great so far. it is a little stiff. but its great. if their is no pics of the set up on this thread ill add them.

with the gm hydro clutch it required a new clutch bell housing. im not sure if theirs a after market style out their. but i went and used all gm parts.
