Jomax's 2017 Daily Driver "build"

On a side note Truck has 1200miles already.

Not trying to hijack buddy's thread. But most D-A's/Sanders are Orbital Movement. Orbital is just the type of rotational movement the sander makes. It's not bad at all. Unless your paper gums up or you get dirt in the paper and it gives you god awful pigtails you can't get out. But little sand with 1500 and some good gritty compound and it'll come out.
Cut and polished that truck i painted tonight.

Your taste, your preference:thumbup:

Personally, I think it's hideous. Like put the fuel on the outside and burn it, hideous.

Jomax, you better put in a little more time, 1200 miles in what, week, week and a half? Stop slacking, man!:shocked::lookaround:

get those mudflaps off before they ruin the paint. May as well loose the powerstroke badges too now that youve started...

So here it is lowered..

Front dropped about 1in and rear almost three. The rear is 1-1.5in taller.

I also cycled the suspension without bumpstops with the plates hitting the axle and he axle made no contact. So I trimmed the bump stops accordingly. From the factory. The truck had 1 in of travel before it would contact the bumpstop. It now has 2in.

My husky mats and bed rug come today. Also my 20x10 Novakanes will be arriving today and fingers crossed I’ll be able to mount them today with my Nitto 420s.
