On the Projects and Builds page, just above the first listed build is a blue bar that says Thread/ Thread Starter on the left. Towards the right of that blue bar it says Rating - Last Post - Replies - Views. Click on any of these words to rank the threads according to which you want to rank top to bottom. I click on Views and it ranks them in order of most Viewed to Least Viewed. This is how I read the most popular threads, the ones that probably have the best information because people keep coming back to them often.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

Its builds like this that almost make me hate the internet. I can't stop looking when I should be out working in my own shop.

Excellent job you are going on this one.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

New AEV low profile hood
New AEV tall fenders
New tall rear fender flares to match New front flares
Front and rear adjustable sway bar links
Front and rear Adjustable Trac Bars (panhard rods)
2.5 inch Old Man Emu lift
Soft ride Emu shocks
35 inch 12.50/17 Goodyear MTRs
17 by 8.5 inch Jeep specific Pintler Rims

Whew!

Andrew's first car, we tricked him telling him he was getting the green 2004 Suburban. The Jeep came this way with the goofy wheels and tires that stuck out 4 inches. No way I could leave it looking like that.

Andrew said he wants tube fenders front & rear and 40's for southern rock bouncing.

Good looking Jeep! Nice work.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

One day down, still on schedule! I'll flip this door over tomorrow, tape off the white areas, and paint it with the cab that is prepped and waiting. If that all goes well and the creek don't rise, the next day I can unmask and remask for the white areas and shoot them all before Friday. Friday is already totally booked with work and Friday night football - Go Bubby!!

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

Day 2 and still kinda sorta on schedule. Blue is on, but runs on the drivers rocker and a few specks of trash on the door. I think if I let it dry overnight I could wet-sand in the morning and hit it with one quick pass. Then maybe by tomorrow night I could un-tape and re-tape like planned for the white spray.
