shit man down!!!!

florescent tube exploded in my hand today at work had to go get sliced open so they could remove the shards of glass that got stuck in there then stitch me up. anyways can really use my right hand for about a week. and i may be getting a week off work from workers comp. so i cant really work on my truck. hopefully my fellow club members can help me out so i can get it done on time.

we raised the back crossmember for the gas tank 1.75 inches

and we used 1x1 box tubing to raise the front cross member 1 inche this will allow my gas tank to sit higher than the frame so that i dont drag though it or lay the truck out on it and damage it.

added 2 crossmembers to the notch for extra strength

a pic of the back cantileiver links put together

they would all be done right now but im missing a sleeve bushing for one so my buddie has to bring me another one

and finally we cut off the excess part of the notch and cleaned it up a bit

 
so hopefully since i cant go to the gym because of my hand injury i can get the whole back finished up with working valves,bags,compressors ect by sat so all thats left is body drop the bed then we can focus on the front of the truck!

 
OK got the 4 link and cantilever all done today and the rear bags are mounted. all that's left if finish drilling the holes for my pan hard bar and my link setup will be done then add in the shocks and do some plumbing and wiring looks like the back will be done 100% by saturday
