    2001 1500 sport restoration

    I have spent the last few cutting and fitting panels as well as patching smaller holes with sheet metal. It seems to be coming along good.

    2001 1500 sport restoration

    A small update today but a pretty big one. All my parts finally came in from LMCtruck. I gotta say I'm not too impressed with them. A lot of them were pretty beat up from improper packing and shipping but other than that they're pretty awesome. Sent from my iPod touch using Tapatalk

    2001 1500 sport restoration

    Yesterday was a little rough. I was in an ATV accident and took a few stitches in my leg. Not really a big deal but it made work a little slow today. After school I was able to drill out all the spot welds that hold the inner fenders to the actual fenders. It was a very tedious job but after two...

    Increase towing

    The truck is rated for about 7500 the trailer weights between 7500-8000 I'm not really towing that much over the rated weight. I'm towing at the limit. I just want to make it so my truck will be able to do it without struggling
