Been cleaning up the wheel wells to avoid any further issues. Pretty much waiting on parts!

Travis,
Looking good.... a quick suggestion; Add some tubing to the inner fender skin from that white zip tie down towards the molding on the door. I built my inner skin similar to yours and after about two years of hitting the dirt, the skin started to crack a bit.

Just asuggestion.... and since your waiting on parts, gives you something to do.

Thanks!

I was planning on doing something like this. The red would be more square tube with a lower piece that bolts to the cab, and then I was going to plate over it all. Going to run a piece over to the core support as well (kind of hard to see in my auto cad rendering!)

Yup, but I would add one more that goes all the way down, either the yellow or green added here

Looks like the angle of the photo cuts off the other one. I can see something that may be the base of it, but it's hard to tell.

Yeah she's 3 wheelin!

Small, more down the road news...
Let a buddy borrow my 9 inch 3rd member for a race. He blew it up so it's now coming back with a 35 spline spool, and a set of 4:56 gears. I think the 4:56 should be a better option over the 4:88's it had, especially with the C6 that is going in.

if you're running 35's I think you'll be much better off with the 4.56's. Unless it's a dirt only toy.

Next set is going to be 17's/37's. I'd just like to be able to drive it long distances and get somewhat decent mpg's, 8ish is all I can hope for.
