Re: Project Madera: A Jimmy GT
The truck has now been stripped of all it's 4 by 4ness and no longer has it's heavy greasy orange heart. I have it mocked up at close to it's final ride height, but really need to check and double check the numbers. It is sitting at 9 inches off the ground with a slight rake. Porterbuilt was telling me 8 and a half but if I drop the front stands by one notch to get 8 and a half at the front of the flat section of frame the 28" tall tire is slightly up under the lip which it shouldn't be when it's done. The well should be about 2 inches above the tire, so anyway that works out to just under 9 inches at the front of the straight portion of the frame and a hair over 9 inches at the back. This is how that looks.
Sorry for the stretch wrap on the tires and wheels, but apparently if you don't wrap them when you stack them the redlines will turn black from leaching of rubber from transfer from the adjacent tire.
