Thanks, rear seats are 3rd row (1 1/2 sets) out of a Tahoe. Front seats are 40/20/40 out of silverado. I would have liked some storage but I needed intergrated shoulder belts for kids booster seats and better safety for front passengers.
I'm hoping to go to Weare but its the wife's birthday weekend, so I don't know yet. I'm don't know of any other events in the area, any insight would be great.
Well she's getting there I took a piece of flat steel and ran a line down the bottom edge of the cab to clean it up and reinforce it. I built a seat frame for my seats that are going in the rear. I got it mounted in the cab with the seats bolted down it's nice having a set up with the seatbelts...
Well, a lot of rain and yard work has held things up for a couple weeks. I sprayed some tintable u-pol raptor bed liner for the interior and on the exterior of the hardtop. I liked the 2 part epoxy bedliner for exterior of hardtop to really seal up any gaps that may have been present after...
Hardtop is on and almost done. I put on the corners for the hardtop extension. I cut the pieces to size and then used a spare piece of landscaping post to roll the corner to the approximate curve of the top. It seemed to line up pretty well. I got it welded to the subrame alright and I need...
Not sure, maybe 80 hours with no help. It's tough to add up time when I usually get 2 hours at a time. If we have decent weather, I try to get Ina hour or two once my kids go to bed, or once a week, I work a evening shift and get a few hours before work.
I welded on the side wall pieces and attempted to weld the hardtop together. Apparently you can't weld steel to aluminum without a friction welder.
So i'm thinking of pop riveting the center piece on and then applying an adhesive to seal it before Bondo.
Great ideas, I want to keep it simple cheap, (keep the good honest). I know a rock can defeat any window. And I'll have some hidden and locked battery cut off to deter the more committed.
i am concerned about a mechanical backup on at leat one door to get in if the batteries are dead.
The bed is welded together, I sanded, put "rusty metal primer" to the underneath and I put it back on the truck. I wanted to put a coat of paint on underneath but I was in a rush to get the bed back on with the excavator, since the owner came to pick up the excavator and I no longer have...
I was contemplating some type of power door locks with keyless entry when my crew cab 5 ton is done. I searched and could not find anything, so I was wonder if anyone has done this to a 5 ton style truck or has any ideas on how to go about it. I don't want to to manually lock 4 doors with a...
I found some 3rd row seats out of a 2004 Yukons that have the seatbelts built in. I got 2 sets in leather for $100 bucks. I can fit 1 and 1/2 sets in the back. Making seating for 4 with seatbelts. The other 1/2 set will go in the passenger front seat. Now I will find a front driver seat with...
