[ilikebmxbikes]

Here is my 5 link scab build. This has been a long journey so far. The first installment is below and I will follow up with more videos as the story progresses as I continue to take this truck to the next stage.

Thank you guys!

Holy crap! Sorry you went through all that, but the truck looks amazing.

Cool build regardless… Avalanche on a SCAB is actually my favorite combo. Nice.

Wow what a journey. Maybe gave them way to much slack as folks like that will take advantage of you easily. Hope they get you compensated and there business dries up.

The truck really was a great starting point. The options + the condition really is a rare combo these days. Not too many scabs out there and most are not 802a and of those that are 802a, most not first year w/ avalanche and orange interior. Only thing that could have made the truck better is if it was a slick top.

Its been a tough ride but I can only move forward. I hope RPG does come and try and make things right as much as they can. They cannot make up for the wasted time and gray hair, but they can compensate me for the parts that were damaged, incorrect, not included, the labor that was unrealized or incomplete and the damages that incurred due to their negligence or poor craftsmanship.

agree 1000% !!

Mine has the moonroof too, but honestly thinking about cutting the roof off and welding on a non-moonroof (slick) roof, or maybe simply removing the mechanism and glass and filling it in with a carbon fiber panel, then replacing the headliner with a non-moonroof version.

That’s pretty low on the priority list right now though! LoL

ive done that on BMW's but looking at the raptor the weight savings isnt as important and the SCAB roof is pretty small. So ima just roll with it.
