SSThunder Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Nice!! I'd like a D but it's just not practical for me. Old age has me thinking about what I need more and not what I want lol Can't wait to see the finished project Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmf21209 Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 (edited) Why dont you go EFI live instead of ppe? I recently sold the SS and bought a D-max myself, and yeah I'd never ever pay that much for a grille...

04CHASE Posted March 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 well i got the grille anyway , found someone who had one but never installed it , got it for less than half price. man i love the interweb. so im dont spending on this thing for a while . until the irs decides to send me my dam tax refund . going to go finish up the lift right now . probably be working until about midnight since i have to fab a crossmember for the rear shock mounts . then tomorrow off to get the alignment done and then to snap pics for you all .

W2W402 Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 I never checked on the price of the RBP grills...that is ri-cockulious. What about fender flares? I have a friend that might be selling a set of unused bushwacker Pocket style fender flares. They are black but I'm sure you could paint them to match.

BigBlack Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 Holy crap Chase that HD is badass.. Just wondering if you have a money tree in your back yard...LOL Now you got the best of both worlds.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
04CHASE Posted March 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 man just work up , had a long night yesterday . got real sick towards the end of it but i kept welding . the perches on the axle are done , the shock hoops are pretty much on , the passenger side hook and a arms are all done . today i will tackle the steering components , the torsion bars, the support bars , a slight alignment to get me through the weekend . last i still need to finish the cross member and relocate some sensors'cpus in the rear frame. also have to re charge the shocks , cant wait to drive this beast. i didnt realize how much work this was going to be , even with 3 of us its still a ton of work but this isnt your everday lift. so it should look tits when done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

04CHASE Posted March 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 ok man what fun that was, but its done . have an issue with an abs light that i think i must have pinched a sensor , need to get to a tech2 to check and also change some parameters( tire pressure sensors and add back up cam) but here are some pics of the progress and completion should be busy with minor stuff next weekend too . so far ive driven it 5 miles and its awesome , already getting lots of looks almost reminds me being in the SS.

alex.t Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 thats awesome man, looks like it was alot of work, imagine yourself pullin the ss on a trailer with that truck, now that would be some crazy looks hahah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
04CHASE Posted March 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 it will be pulling it , ill be looking for a decent 18-20 ft car trailer later this year. right now it drives awesome rpm's are a bit low but it still has plenty of power to move. i think 4.10's would be perfect but need to hold off on spending money on it for a little bit. got some home expenses i need to cover next month so back to work tomorrow . seems like i didnt even get a day off this week.
