Still need to order Detroit locker for front, Bilstein 7100 Resi shocks, F250 shock towers, 37's im goin with the MTR Kevlar and a 17' Rim still need to order them too and prolly more crap lol
 












Update I have all parts from ballistic fab 3' joints heims and crap. I have never delt with a company who doesent care about their customers, made my order in late may and got my last box the end of december. They got kicked off pirate for a reason but lets get back on track. I need tubing, tires, wheels, t-case and a few little parts and a trailer to move it from my moms to my new house. I plan on having this thing finished late feb or early march (knocks on wood). Pics soon
 






Thats just insane! Over half a year to deliver parts! WTF! Jerks!

I would have had to go a diff route, waiting that long would never have worked for me. Glad you are able to make some progress now tho. We need to see you up north at one of our meets someday. :)
 






Yea i tried to have patience the only thing that kept me from goin somewhere else like rough stuff was I have another car to drive and I already paid em. Ive been wanting to go up there for a trail ride for the longest time, May would be sweet!
 












Damn thats funny
 






Get this thing going an we'll hit Hot Springs! Or Gilmer, which would be closer to ya.
 






Hot springs sounds bad ass superlift park?
 












bump
 






long time no update i had to put the ex in storage i have just got it out of storage to my new house. Not much progress done at all in over a year all i really did was weld all the brackets up. Got the tools out and the parts out of storage ready to finish this thing I hope by january. Up dates soon!!! ;)
