    Show your 1st gen flex

    I cut out four 1/4 inch plates, 2 of them slightly shorter. Drilled the holes and mounted them to the framerails. Notched the ends with a grinder to fit the main tube and just built up from there. Tacked pieces together, then removed to fully weld.

    SASed....But Drivelineless

    Yea I was just going to get some tubing and heims for the steering but the D30 sway bar mounts are in the way. I might just go ahead and flip the one I have now. I still have half inch flat stock I have to cut out for the shackles, rear shock mounts and other small stuff to do. I just wanted to...

    Oh Im not worried about taking the paint off the side of my truck while wheeling, I just wanna try to stop the metal on my suspension from rusting as much as I can, its still bare metal. Even then its going to get pelted with rocks and such.

    What tires? I wanted 35s but Im not sure how top heavy it will be and with the Dana 30 factor. I was thinkin wide 33s like 33x13.50s or 14.50s.

    The water wasnt high enough to reach the engine, just high enough to get the carpet nice and wet and burry the axles under the sand. The brakes didnt like that very much either...especially the drums. This was last June also, it hasnt rained that hard here since then and my truck is SASed now...

    Banishment...??!! Alright, One night I went out to meet some friends out in Box Canyon out by Wickenburg, Az one night.
