Things its getting right now-

Tnt truss
Custom long arms

Procomp 15x8 wheels with 2.75 backspacing

I got the axles out of minnesota so they were a lil rusty as u can tell, and have put up a good fight! But i got a good deal on them if that matters.

Yeah i weld on cross country gas pipelines. Anywhere from 2" to 42" lol. Yeah at first i wasnt a big fan of the 2 door but after i got used to it i like it alot more! Only bad thing is someone put 4 door seats in it so they dont lean up ugh. But that will change here shortly as soon as i find some.
