I figured it was time to start a build thread for my M923, code name Ralph (from kids movie wreck it ralph, since main character is big,little slow and wrecks everything he touches).
I will be putting few posts in from my new members thread http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?99660-new-from-MD/page3
and then will start updating this thread instead. First post here will be uber long just to get you caught up to date.
Plans were to get a 923 or 923a2 and bob it down into nearly pickup truck size, turbo it and then just have a weekend cruiser/car show truck while still using it as a truck.
1-2-13- truck is paid for sitting at GL lot
I just wanted to update I officially have a paid for m923, now if I can get it home before my 10 days are up. I will be taking lots o pics of truck and keeping as good of records as I can of the bob job to follow. For now here is a gl pic of my truck.
1-17-13 truck is home to my parents house (where garage is that I can work on my cars)
ok picture time, first one is sitting at bikemans I had popped hood to fill power steering next ones are sitting in my parents driveway. I suddenly dont think my moms dodge ram with 4.5" lift and 35's is all that big anymore lol.
3-17-13
ok well I got my 2 425/65/22.5s mounted up (had to buy a 1" impact to get lug nuts off after twisting the head off a 3/4" breaker bar)
I also have my 6" CAT stacks on truck with stack box to help with drone, still need to paint them black and finish up a set of supports to help keep them from wobbling around at tops. I also took the stock flex connector from stock stack and re-mounted it under truck cab and welded 4" 90 elbow to it so the stacks can move a bit without leaks. I also decided to go ahead and get a set of 52's for truck since the 43's just dont fill up fender enough (still look better in person than the factory 11r's did up front though).
