Re: project orange crush 76 crewcab build

So after a long weekend and many late nights I'll start with were I left off. We came in Saturday morning to realize we only cut 7" out of the frame duh. So then we marked another 7" which ended up giving us a straight cut at 14" and not a z cut. So in all the confusion we decided to z cut another 3.5" thinking our centerline would stay the same. Long story short I ended up cutting all the rivits out of the spring hangers,shock mounts and brake line bracket and rolling the axle back 3.5 inches. It created another day and a half of work for me but lesson learned. If you never make mistakes how will you ever learn from them right? So with that said I know have a crewcab shortbed with a 150.5 wheel base.
