I finally had some time to start cutting and notching some tubes today. We have the whole truck drawn up for a blueprint so to speak, and I really think you guys are gonna dig what we have in store for it. I cant think of another Raptor out there that will have a rear end setup like we will finish up with. It will look way different from all the other linked trucks that we have seen.

Luckily I have a good Body guy (Kirk, cough, cough) that is gonna take care of the two big holes in the rear of the cab. We were gonna just drill a few with a hole saw, but wanted to make sure we had room to get a good 360 weld-joint on the tubes landing in the cab. Gonna work on it some more tomorrow and will be sure to post up pics as the progress moves along.

Oh Jarrett you shouldn't have... Looks like I'm gonna be dropping my truck off for just a little bit of work.

You forgot to cover up the blueprints this time

Oh yea, sure is.

but seriously, I'm gonna have to fly out to get a ride in this when your done. I'm dead serious when I say I want to do more than just the standard 3.0 upgrade. I want to do something with at least 18-20" travel all around, and caged. This might be the ticket.

Just a ride? shoot how about we throw you the keys to take here for a spin in some of Barstow's toughest terrain.
