Re: Fatman, TCI, or Scotts IFS/Chassis on 49 AD
 

J, i didn't realize you guys were starting the build on the 22nd. I was under the impression it would be finished on the 22nd... glad your telling me this now. I'll have to redo my travel plans. With the brakes what is the smallest wheel that i can run? 15s? Are you thinking that those 17x8s wont work? I cant be the first guy to have this set up. Is there anybody I can contact to see what they ran?

Re: Fatman, TCI, or Scotts IFS/Chassis on 49 AD
 

I modified my original frame. Installed Scott's Hot Rod IFS and 4 link out back - all on coilovers.

Re: Fatman, TCI, or Scotts IFS/Chassis on 49 AD
 

Those wheels will place the tire .5" closer to the frame than the Revolver. The Revolver had more clearance on the inside than the outside. Worst case scenario you might end up with a 10mm spacer.

15" wheels are hit & miss with the 12" rotors. For delivery purposes we can leave the caliper off.

Re: Fatman, TCI, or Scotts IFS/Chassis on 49 AD
 

It looks like it needs a loving home.

It looks great!! My dad will be there tomorrow to take a look at it. I unfortunately am at work until after the 1st. So I probably won't be able to pick it up until the second week of January.

:metal: If I am not busy when he gets here I'll tag along with Evan and get a pic with him & the chassis. You know, just to tease. :lol:

Re: Fatman, TCI, or Scotts IFS/Chassis on 49 AD
 

I would really appreciate that. That would be awesome!!!

Re: Fatman, TCI, or Scotts IFS/Chassis on 49 AD
 

I don't think your Dad could be any more proud or excited.

Re: Fatman, TCI, or Scotts IFS/Chassis on 49 AD
 

Thats cool !

Re: Fatman, TCI, or Scotts IFS/Chassis on 49 AD
 

Thanks for the picture!!! You:metal::metal: My dad was wondering where the red calipers were cause thats what he saw at the show back in the summer. I told him he could pay for the upgrade, if they allow the change. Is that a thing that Evan or you can make happen? If so how much is that package, my price list is at home.

What do you guys recommend for painting the frame?

Re: Fatman, TCI, or Scotts IFS/Chassis on 49 AD
 

$900 for 4 piston calipers on the existing rotors. $600 additional for the 12" Wilwood rotors with billet hubs (up front). Not a problem at all to change out before you pick it up.

Re: Fatman, TCI, or Scotts IFS/Chassis on 49 AD
 

J we were trying to go down today, but its pouring outside, Im thinking about driving down either Friday or Saturday, will you be around that day?

Re: Fatman, TCI, or Scotts IFS/Chassis on 49 AD
 

Friday for sure :thumbs:

Re: Fatman, TCI, or Scotts IFS/Chassis on 49 AD
 

Leaving now, see you in 6 hrs J!!!!

Re: Fatman, TCI, or Scotts IFS/Chassis on 49 AD
 

double post

Re: Fatman, TCI, or Scotts IFS/Chassis on 49 AD
 

J missed you by minutes. Got there at 1715 your 210 traffic sucks. The 2014 camaro wheels fit the back not the front which sucks. Hopefully I can recoup my costs. Your many ships are awesome!!!

Re: Fatman, TCI, or Scotts IFS/Chassis on 49 AD
 

Last ones my dad just gave me. After this time for a build thread.

Re: Fatman, TCI, or Scotts IFS/Chassis on 49 AD
 

Oh no way. Everyone said you were coming on Saturday so I bailed. Soooooo, whadaya think?

Re: Fatman, TCI, or Scotts IFS/Chassis on 49 AD
 

Nice for sure. Bummed the rear didn't fit either so now I'm running drive all the way around without brakes in the rear.!!☹ but the engine went in nice and easy the bed too once I took the wheels off. Need to find some headers or manifolds. But man those welds are nice and I use to do cages. Finish work very nice.

Re: Fatman, TCI, or Scotts IFS/Chassis on 49 AD
 

You will have a truck to last for another 50 years !
When I get my projects to that point I like to get them started and runing and check for "things"

Re: Fatman, TCI, or Scotts IFS/Chassis on 49 AD
 

Getting down to business already, I like it. I'm going to talk with Rich from Magnaflow next week at MPMC about their headers. We always hoped they were going to mass produce them for us.
