Listen you sand suckin hippy. I like the height but you gotta remember that theres no weight there yet. Just cab and front metal. When i add all the rest of the sheetmetal and then the cummins/getrag and dual 205s its gonna settle. SO i need about 3" more for it to settle where it is now with full weight

So Cheeto what are you going to do with this thing? Tow Rig? Mall Crawler? Going to wheel it at all?

The thing is coming together nicely. I love the look of it.

I forgot you rednecks back there can't remember crap.... The STOCK springs on these things only settle maybe 1" lower than stock with the cummins in there. So before you go all "look my truck is cooler than yours - I can fit 78" swampers" get the motor in it. THEN mess with ride height

It took me a second to get that.

Haha. Why's everyone so down on Cheeto? :P

So far i've concluded, cheeto is a turd burgler, he has six toes, wears rainbow socks, building the crew to haul barbie dolls, taking his time because he's buying food for his son/sisters kid. :P

Damn. Rough life Cheeto.

Getting there. You forgot to add that thanks to me (apparently I jinxed him today) his truck will never be done.

I just think it's an excuse though
