A 220/240 plug is a sinch to wire up! I wired up one in my garage, along with wiring in the 220 air compressor.

Got a 30 ft extension cord with two plugs on the end so I don't have to unplug the welder to use the plasma cuTter.

so who thinks a t-case index ring will make my bgtl truck have happier d-shaft angles in front? seems like $80 will make a stock d-shaft shaft work with a huge homoghey lift.

well here's what happens when you get bored and hammered and can't be outside because it's raining. you sit in a closed garage and spray paint stuff. ventilation is for sissies
god bless the little messicans that can do good masking and painting in body shops, could have used one of them last night. i don't think i could have masked the lip any straighter even if i was dead sober. they look ok from 5-10 feet though. Grabber Green btw.


here's 2 more pics with a light behind them. kind of wish they were this color and all metallic looking.

larry i just want something a little different. I've never really dug the black rim/tire combo unless it had a chrome lip or something. i might get some weld on beadlock rings down the road and thats where the idea started anyways, cause i was gonna paint the rings when i did it.

the wife hates flames, and she was against the green until she saw it done. showed her some gravedigger pics and she mentioned maybe doing the cab black with green flames, not sure if i'll do it, but maybe......

I'm sticking with my original vote :flipoff:



Should have went with pink. Lol










But really, it doesn't look bad at all. I would have taped off closer to the edge so was less green than.
