Started assembling some more CM kits… 84" kit going to SDHQ In AZ for a customer of theirs.

A 91" kit going to a new 6100 build. They also purchased one of our 3.5" housings for their prerunner.

I think we’re on axle housing #11 or something as well now in the last 2 months and now have them in 3 states.

Another new housing done and ready for Bryan Blagg’s class 2000 truck.

3.5” housing, fully tabbed and ready to drop in. Took hot old 3rd member and swapped in a new 40 spline Strange Spool, Currie 40sp axles. Jamar 5x5.5 2.5” hubs.IMG_4795.webpIMG_4813.webpIMG_4816.webpIMG_4812.webpIMG_4803.webp
 
My buddy Nicks truck kept bending (typical OBS Chevy truck) at the front body mounts. So added a 2” TE Designs cab cage kit. Tiring it all to the engine cage and bedcage should eliminate that and having the cage is safer anyways.. but fuck these trucks forsure lol 😂 IMG_4839.webpIMG_4834.webpIMG_4876.webp
 
My brothers build coming along very quick.

I put together a axle housing for him, ordered a 2” cab cage and backhalf kit from TE Designs, he got a 70gal fuel safe cell brand new for $1k, new PRP Alpha seats, Desert Specialty hubs front and rear, Chevy LS with 4l80, DIY beams and all our pivots/swingers. 3.0c/o and 3.5 b/p front and rear.

Total time into build is less than 2 months total.

Should be a fun truck IMG_1686.webpIMG_1685.webpIMG_1682.webpIMG_1639.webpIMG_1529.webpIMG_2283.webpIMG_2265.webpIMG_2172.webpIMG_4929.webpIMG_2090.webp
