Nice brace job and rear disk convertion and I dig the braced up TTB in the back ground. Almost made me miss the fact he tried to hide the bike under a towl, lol.
Here is a brace idea for your 14, called the wrapter. Sorry HJ over.
I was going to say that about the braced TTB but you beat me to it. Looks like he did a decent job. Looks like he might have missed plating the bottom of the area where the pumpkin bolts in.

NOT my axle or my shop!
Yup that's Cheet-o's shop.
As for the sarcasm about the pics - sorry but it's hard to read inflection, sarcasm or whatever in the text. I get a little defensive because I have been called out here before for dropping a cummins, 14b, etc. in my truck and it annoys the **** out of me obviously.
I wasn't trying to down anyone's ideas for taking them from another truck(whether it be a chevy or a dodge). I was simply trying to state that I personally would do that cause I'd like the bumper to flow with the contours of the truck, and obviously fords and chevys are different. Simply put, I don't know if it'd look good(to me).
Its all good, I even watch your build thread on Off Road how's it going?
And yes back to bumper's......
No builds posted in the Off-Road forum. A couple knuckleheads down there make it so I don't feel like watching or posting there. Only threads I'm in are a prerunner one that hte guy PMed me and asked me to look at and then Cheet-o's.
My builds are slowly coming along. If I'd quit hitting the bars so often my crew might actually get finished soon.

My posting of the bumper on the Jeep/Exploder was just to show the style. I like the lines of that bumper and plan to produce something with a similar look. Now I know that bumper couldn't be just bolted on and run on one of these trucks, but the overall form/design can be adapted.
Chasetk754 I know what you mean about that forum to bad a few ruin it for the rest.
I know I have spied some pics of your prerunner build somewhere, tricking out a 2wd with flipped I beams and fat fiber front fenders......right? Cool IMO
No flipped I-beams for me. I'm the one always arguing against it. But yes, the build will be a little crazy/much more than most on here do. That build thread is in this 73-79 forum.
gotta say that bumper is ugly! Its way too big. It could definetely lose that bottom vented section.
I recently got mine powder coated now and it turned out awesome
hey. what part of vic are you in? what was the total cost to make? would you consider making one for my truck?
