Re: Starting my 2x4 to 4x4 conversion.

Well, Finally Made some progress. Got everything off the 4x4 truck. I used a grinding wheel to remove all the rivets...actually wasn't too bad. Everything came off fairly easy. The real bugger was drilling all the holes in the 2x4 frame...(my forearms are still a little sore) I then mocked up everything to make sure it fit before I started Painting. I tell ya what...POR 15 is the way to go. It lays sooo nice and seems to level itself out and looks like it just rolled off the factory floor. I guess time will be the real test though. Michigan Winters can be rough on a truck. Anyways...Tomorrow I'll be finishing it up and re-assembling everything. All in all this project wasn't as hard as some people make it sound. I've read a lot of forums where people look down on this kind of project but I definitely have to say it was fairly easy...just time consuming.
More to come !!!
