Well...Lots of thinking. Its a two man job for sure. We figure we are both operating on about a half of a brain, so when we do work like this on our trucks we try to equal things out a bit by working together.

What are your plans for your cage on your roofless 60?

lowtideride · 04-23-07, 11:22 AM

Thats cool man, I think it looks good. I did the bob because I had/ wanted too because of rust and the fact that I destroyed all the body panels on the rear of the truck.

Wayneraintree · 04-23-07, 11:34 AM

Its getting hacked off right behind the shackle mounts. We are gonna do it after the cage is all welded in. We dint want the frame to shift at all when we cut the rear cross member off.

Wayneraintree · 04-23-07, 12:39 PM

So then you'll box it? Sounds good man, how much overhang do you think you'll lose?

kling-on · 04-23-07, 09:19 PM
