Haha it’s just primer but yeah did a ton of body work, and did some bartering for a new rear bumper with a hitch. Moved the spare inside, and swapped out the single blue Beard for matching black PRP’s, along with a speedway steering quick release thanks to AndyImageImageImageImage

Having no garage and a dirt driveway makes for slow progress in the rain, still need to figure out limit strap length, upper coil retainers, and maybe some rubber coil isolators. What do you guys use to mark bolt heads/nuts? Anyone use this Dykem stuff?

Good progress. That Dychem looks like pretty fancy stuff. Should work well. I just use a plain old paint pen.

Yeah I may just buy a red paint pen, I’m using it mainly as a visual indicator if something’s working it’s way loose

That's all I use it for. Yellow is easier to see than red for this by the way

Hmm.. but that may ruin my subtle ‘red white and blue’ suspension accents haha

I've used light blue before with success too. One "red" one I had came out more pink and was visible. The dark red one didn't stand out on the black frame well at all.

Sorry guys I promised more updates and failed to deliver. Can’t believe it’s been a year since I checked in.. anywho this is how the B2 sits currentlyImage
Been sitting for a few months awaiting some love. Between all the rona shit, completely remodeling a travel trailer, and starting a new job with AMR, I don’t have much actual free time. It actually doesn’t need that much to be a driver, I pretty much have everything I need to get it where I intended other than some things that need to be fab’d and new leaves/shackles. I have so many new parts waiting to be installed, should be a blast to drive between the new King smoothies up front, heimed RA’s, and 4.56’s. I still plan on reassembling it all as time allows, but I’ve come to the realization that I’ll ultimately have to sell it in the near future. With the 30ft travel trailer remodel almost done, I need a bigger truck to tow its heavy ass around, and I can’t bring myself to let go of my OBS F150 so that means the B2 is the first to go. But on the upside, when that happens maybe I’ll be able to finally give the ‘ol F150 all the attention I’ve been saying I’d give it. But again, the B2 won’t be sold off till I finish it and possibly with fresh paint(finally). That is unless someone wants to make an offer haha

Also I mentioned this earlier but I broke my phone not too long ago so if anyone tried to contact me via text or call recently and I didn’t get back to you I apologize, I have a new phone now with the same number if anyone needs to reach me.
