    '17 Roof Gutter Trim Removal

    That was my truck you reposted with the roof seam trim piece deals removed. They are held in by a rivet under the rear glass. No good, to get at the rivet the back glass will have to be pulled. Once the rivet is out the trim piece is clipped in like you've discovered. Start at the rear and work...

    This was a personal project, we specialize in OEM mechanical and body repair. I fit this stuff in for fun and to bring a bit of excitement to the shop. Paint color is something we mixed up and spent quite a bit of time getting where we want it. Make your own blue, :D

    Sema does not judge the vehicles. To my knowledge the only company that judges every vehicle is Mothers Polishes. They go to the show after hours and inspect every vehicle in the entire show. Supposedly 1,200 vehicles were judged, 10 vehicles are selected as winners with one taking the overall...

    Some awesome shots all washed up and loaded up, I was completely drained and had no idea what was going on by this point. All I knew was the truck was on the trailer and my job was done. Lefebvre Bulk Transport hauled the truck enclosed, they do all of our transportation. The same company that...

    2016 Sema Project

    I am proud to say I wired every single rock light myself lol. It is one of the worst jobs so I took one for the team. 60 blue rock lights were ordered from josh at the diesel cartel. I figured I would use 40 or so, the red truck had 27 I believe. I ended up with either 55 or 56 lights. 6 in each...

    The wheels deserve a new post, Specialty Forged designed a new cut for the truck. Concave 26x16'' with 40'' fuel gripper mt tires, not some peoples preference, I understand but the truck was built with the most modern parts available. You don't show up to Sema with 18'' wheels and 44'' boggers...

    2016 Sema Project

    With the major lift components painted we were ready to install, all plumbing, wiring and fuel lines were routed and cleaned up as much as possible. Quite the mess but we got it, We basically went from a chassis with wiring and air lines laying everywhere, to the engine in...

    2016 Sema Project

    As parts showed up, for the most part they were fitted to the frame, removed prepped and painted the same day. The parts would dry over night and installed the following morning, that is the only reason we finished the truck on time. Many long nights were the consequences, but was all worth it...

    Mr. Trevor Hall over at PMF Suspension coming in on that Southwest Airlines freight cargo 12 days before the show! Yes 12 days, damn right I was there at 5am to pick up the parts and get started. First to show up was the subframe, link arms, cross members and a few miscellaneous pieces. Really...

    I will update eventually I promise. This week was a lot busier then I anticipated. As far as the concerns go. 4wd works perfect thanks to a new driveshaft and indexing ring. The wheels and tires are all preference, personally I like the way the wheels and tires look. Most pictures you have seen...

    We indeed made it. Just barley, lot of hardwork and less mouth running can bring great results. I will update for everyone as soon as I can. Probably sometime on Tuesday evening. It takes a lot of time to upload all those pictures and post them. I tried to get as many as I could but was busy...
