why would this not be the way to go for a cheap build? you are using no new parts...[/QUOTE]

no new parts yes but you will be doing a bit more fab work and spending more on the metal and just more time in general. If you have a good supply of metal and skills go for it. I think the underslung frame is sick. But from the one ive seen you need a big set of wheels to get good ground clearance

 

yea the big wheels wouldnt be an issue because there will be no tucking. i do have access to pretty much whatever metal i want, welded, broke, laser cut, whatever.

 

i dont undersatnd. So you dont want it to tuck

 

the original bed will not be used. it will be open wheel all the way around.

 

now im very interested in this build. Because im lost haha

 

ha good. i hope it is going to turn out as good as it has in my head and a few rough drawings i have made. everyone i tell my ideas to are like "um.. i dont know.. i just cant picture it"

 

what are u really trying to do if u dont mind my asking

 

ha ill hold off til it really gets going. im taking a lot of pics so far, but so far not much has really been done towards the goal except taking it down to bare frame, taking out torsion bars, all bump stops and shocks, and removing rear of leaf springs to get a general idea of ride height. ill be starting a build thread very soon.

 

lookin forward to seeing the build then

 

thanks man. hopefully a purchase will be made in the next few days to really get this in gear
