We haven't even started working in the engine compartment yet. We are switching brake boosters
eventually. I plan to run ProAm snouts, hubs and brakes up front. Although, we aren't budgeted for it for another month or
so. Thanks.

| As of
today, I am done bending 2" tubing. The rest is all straight pieces and lots of notching. I will have some bending of
1.5" and 1" for seat mounts and grab handles.

Hey Gary, that vertical tube is a dead tube. I would put a "V" from the center of
the hoop up into the corners of your engine cage for triangulation.

Hey Gary, that vertical tube is a dead tube. I would put a "V" from the center of
the hoop up into the corners of your engine cage for triangulation. |
I
partially agree. The verticle tubes on passenger and driver side are the support bars for the horizontal tubes that come from
the cab cage through the firewall, and of course they connect to eachother over then fan shroud. The engine cage is tied into
the hoops for now and has a small 1" tube gusset down to the frame.
But, for the record, this engine cage
is really premature. For the most part, I just wanted to enter in to the engine compartment through the firewall, so as to
not have to tie in to the cab cage at a later date, which would require dissassembly of the dash, again.
The final
plan is to remove most of the components from the engine bay, inner fenders, install a 1 piece front fiberglass, and completely
build a legitimate engine cage that will not only remove the existing shock hoops, but also continue out the front of the
grille arear to a more desert style bumper, for nerfing.
In short, the existing engine cage is merely a foundation
for the next phase.

We
tried really hard to make it work. But I really wanted my center console, and there was just not enough room. So, bench seat
for sale, buckets on order. Now, I can either mount/build a center console for the rear passengers, or mount a cooler between
the two rear seats.

Air bags are all removed. I left some open space in the dash. I had to use some of the space
for my air ducting, since I had some 2" tubing running horizontal through the dash. I might use that space for mounting
a radio system. If I can afford a Lowrance, it will probably be installed in the part of the center console where it meets
the dash.

| Gary,
please dont take this the wrong way. Im not out to bash you in any way, just offering my opinion.
If that rearend were
to come up and smack the bottom of the cage you want the force to push outward, your current configuration would send the
force upward into a single point which could possibly break the cage. I added lines to your photo with one possible configuration
which would distribute the force outward lessening the force on that single point.

| No offense
taken. In fact, I've built much of this truck with the collaboration of friends and their opinions. In this case, there is
still more triangulation and x-bracing to be installed. These pics are, as usual, in progress. I plan to x-brace the tube
area forward of the axle, just like in your drawing. But, the area behind the axle, I chose not to do the triangles like you
have drawn, because I was more concerned with the rear shackle mount having a direct shot of support up towards the vertical
bar. kinda hard to explain. Also, you said if the "rear end were to come up to hit the cage", well, it's a mile
away, and will be bumped accordingly. Also the bump cans will have that same outward idea of support, not just up and down.
In other words, it's not done yet. Which makes me re-think posting progress pics.
One thing that I
do know for sure about this build. As soon as it's done, I plan to put it to the test. I don't think you've been offroad with
me, but I run hard. I will build it. Run it hard. Then, post pics and videos of results.
Do you mind me asking
what your fabrication and cage building background is? I always like to know where peolple's experience comes from. Do you
have any of your builds on a forum? website? or race-dezert? etc..? just would be cool to see some of your work. I'm always
trying to learn.

possible configuration which would distribute the force outward lessening the force on that single point. |
So, just to humor myself, and a few of the guys here at the shop. We jacked up the rear end
to full bump(based upon driveline angle, and 1.5" of negative bend in the F87's, at this point) and the rear end is still
14" away from the cage. I'm not sure where you are getting the idea that my rear end will "smack the bottom of the
cage". My rear end will only "smack" my bump stops, which aren't even mounted yet.
I welcome constructive
criticism. But, I don't think it is wise to criticize someones build that is incomplete. It's like looking at a picture of
a cab cage in progress, that has only 4 posts(A pillar and B pillar) and then start posting comments about tubing missing,
when in reality, there is still a ton of work to be done.
After your comments about " the dead tube",
which was installed only to build off of, in the future, and also your Velocity(howe steering thread) comments, and now this.
I am starting to question your intentions on this forum.
If you want to criticize, make sure you know what the
f*** you are talking about.

Yep! Batteries, might, just might fit on either side of the cell towards the back, one on driver
side, one and passenger side. If Optimas's dont fit, I may try Odyssey's. The cooler will be mounted in between the rear seats,
hard mounted, but detachable, and we might even run a drain line out the bottom through the floor. Kinda nice, as the ice
melts, it simply drains the water right out the bottom, that way by the time the drinks are gone, the cooler is empty, wipe
to clean!
The jack will be mounted across the back, right behind the cell, on it's side, locked.

| You going
to polish that fuel cell ? or powdercoat ,That aluminum looks crappy after the desert silt hits it !
As for the jackI
think racer x or somoene else makes a badass mount for floor jack that fits the craftsman jack .Will check my Dusty Times
.
We used to buy the craftman's jack unbolt the wheels and made a mounting plate that the jack would bolt to and then
it to the truck .That way if the Jack breaks you unbolt from the plate put the wheels back on and warranty it .

I've already got one, I think it's the
same one. But, I still need the jack.  Probably could use a little help mounting.

| Bump
pads welded in place. UGH, that took some warming up to. I wasn't excited about mig welding to this piece of artwork(tubeworks
housing), but we had to move forward. Notice the angle of the pad doesn't match the angle of the leaf pad, because we kept
the bump pad 100% perpendicular to the bump stop.

Hopefully tonight. Notice, we finally welded the plating, I'll clean it up and get some better pics. My apprentice has been

| The 2.25"
piece of tubing, cut at an angle, on the outside of the leaf, will have 2 seperate tubes running down to it for support, from
two seperate points.

| Here's
the point at which most of the force will be focused upon hard bumps. If this ever breaks, then I'll hang it all up.
The aluminum tube plug is just sittin in there for the pic. It will be fully pushed in after paint.

1.5" tube, with .250 wall, would be 1" ID,
so my bumps won't fit in that, so you must be talking about something else. Are you talking about the front leaf mounts? Because
I have something similar to that description running inside the frame, as a collar for the bolt, you mean that cromoly stuff
on top of my tool box.??? be more specific, help me here..

Oh, gotcha. It's a few thousanths over 5/8" I.D. and I think it was 1.125 O.D. I used it
between the leaf and the frame, as to not permanently build too far out off the frame.
Here's the run down from
outside - going in.
5/8 bolt running through 2.25" x .120 tubing, soon to be gusseted, it has a 3/16 backing
plate. Then the leaf spring. Then the cromoly spacer (in question). Then a 5/8 cromoly weld washer welded to a 3/16 round
plate, welded to 16 gauge sheer plating, welded to the frame. Then the sleeve. Then the inside of the frame, 16 gauge plating,
3/16 round plate, cromoly weld washer, then a washer and a nut. Confused? I am,

| Thanks
to help from Navvy, Chris, Doug and Pete, we hooked up the fuel system and electrical, and we started the engine up. This
was a huge milestone for us. The anxiety of the engine running or or not, after pretty much tearing out all the wiring harnesses,
was driving me crazy. Now that it runs, we're tearing a bunch of it apart again.

Rollover valve not needed. If the truck rolls,
the fuel will fill the vent line, but won't exit the tube, because the tube end will be higher then the tank. |
Was there saw what you did

Rollover valve not needed. If the truck rolls,
the fuel will fill the vent line, but won't exit the tube, because the tube end will be higher then the tank. |
Was there saw what you did |
Did
you mean? " I was there today, and I saw what you did?"
LOL, I know you were jerk! I figured I'd answer the question, just incase anyone else was curious.

mounts for rear doors, tacked in place. We dreaded mounting these. We got 'em first measurement, first cut and first tack,
perfect.

have you seen that done before? if not thats a cool idea man. i was curious if youre running a support bar from the top tube
down to the mid bar or if its not needed. were running into comfort/clearance issues with the beards and that bar. debatin
what to do but wasnt sure where you were in that part of it.

well, compared to most of the high-end prerunners out there, I have more tubing per square foot then
they do. I just noticed Baldwins new F150 build by CRC and they hardly have anything in the door areas. check out their door
bars, or lack thereof http://www.race-dezert.com/forum/showthread.php?t=37032
If the truck goes in the racing direction, I may ad more support later.
I'm
also not exactly sure what bar you are talking about, b pillar cross support to c pillar? it's only an 18" gap, remember
extra cab, not crew. same bar area? or no?

awww, I gotcha. yeah,
I was on the fence about that. I'm over it now. I'd be interested in what you come up with though, and if you find any pics
of something cool, send 'em my way.
And, you're probably right, after some scratches, I'm sure I'll race atleast
one 1450 race. Just need links, more horsepower, front hubs and tranny work, UGH!

Welcome aboard! I think I was talking to you
on my RDZ thread.
We dont have much for dezert style off-roading in our area, we have to trek a few hours. We
go to Pismo sometimes, and recently and mostly to Reno(random dezert trails), Fallon and Sand Mountain. Sounds like you live
in the heart of it all, I'm jealous.
I havent posted much on my truck, a little bit of burn out. I just pulled
it in the shop today for another rounds of fab, additions, etc.. So, hopefully soon I'll have some updates.

| Yup that
was me on RDZ, I live in a very small town called Pinon Hills, I used to(when I still had breaks and seats mouted in it) hop
in my F150 and take off straight from my house and would be boucing and flying in the air in minutes. If any of you Nor Cal
guys have every heard of the Speed Trials, where people see how fast their cars will go and they try to break land speed records
on a Lake Bed in El Mirage, well I can ride my quad there in 20 mins. Sorry I have a habit of being off topic, the reason
why I was asking where you guys go to have fun in prerunnera is because last week I was working in Bishop, I am actually leaving
to go there tonight, I was talking to some locals but they were more from Mammoth and I was trying to see what areas are around
there for dirt bikes and prerunners, apparently there is some good trails for Jeeps and 4x4s but that will not do, I want
to go fast and fly.
Your guys should make a trip down here to Barstow in July for the Night race, I mean if you guys
can and have a trailer, its a great place to check out some the toys out here and there is always cool people to meet and
hang with. Hit me up if any of you guys are interested and I will be more than Happy to get you the info |

| Finally,
I have addressed the shackle mount and location. Deaver says F87's pull 13-14" with simple bolt in. After some experimenting,
I am at 16.5". I am going to remove the bolts in the leaf pack keepers, rear only, and also try one more shackle location,
in an attempt to get 18" out of these F87's.

| Now,
to make things more confusing. Deaver has a spring under leaf (designed by Jesse at JD Fabrication) that is rumored to be
17" travel bolt in stock Chevy, up to 21-22" travel with clearance, shock and bump mounts and all the correct geometry.
This is a similar set up to the Giant kit offered for the Ford's.

| careful
pullin the keeper bolts, although the travel increases, they start to react different and will develop a new memory. ill try
to dig up some photos of the old 88 we built, but we ended up needing new springs after doin that cus they got pretty worn.
so bad that they ended up saggin out on the driver side of the truck, and we never launched it the way you do, it was only
a little yota too
o and sorry i didnt make it out there the other day, he ended up needin to spend money on some unexpected
bills. stilll wants em but if you can sell em dont wait since hes already flaked once

I agree. I think I'm
going to smash on these F87's until they are done! then , sell them, stating that they have a case of amnesia.

| As usual
we decided to do something last minute. Navvy is going to race Vorra this weekend, and we are going to use my truck to Pre-run
the race on Friday and Saturday. So I've got a couple little things that need to be done before we go:
Fab mounts
for rear seats
Rear seat harnesses
Fire extinguisher
Solid body mounts
Fuel filler fab and mount
mount and wire radio and antenna
wire Optima batteries
mount for tool box and parts
mount cooler between
rear seats
I know it looks cramped in the rear, and it kinda is, but a friend of mine sat there for about 20 minutes
and said he would have no problem riding there and felt that it was equivalent to the same amount of room in a stock interior
extra-cab. I know my kids will fit easy.
Here's a few progress pics:

to the guys over at http://www.billetclamp.com/ we have a cleaner mounting device for our jack handle. Now, some one may argue that there are too many
components and the fact that there is a bolt that can be dropped in the dirt, and even worse, a tool is needed to remove it.
Well, keep in mind it's a prerunner(for now) and in the event of a tire change, hopefully you're not in a hurry. Plus, these
clamps look Bad Ass!

you're getting close to the end of one of your build phases, when you get excited about taking pictures of your truck because
it fits in your garage.

Testing the waters. I'm torn between a toy
hauler vs. motorhome. If I go toy hauler, I need a smaller truck. We'll see.... |
You know I was having the same thought because I have an F150 that I want to build. I asked my friend
the same question he told get a flat bed trailer and a motor home, the only problem is that after the race in Barstow it raid
like hurrican and my dad got stuck in the motorhome while my uncle and every one else with a 4 wheel drive F250 with trailers
had no problems. I sugest that you sell your truck to me for $100.00 and build a trugy. |

| I finally
made a decision to keep the bumper prerunner friendly, as opposed to a race bumper that could be beat up by nerfing. I realized
that I'm most likely not going to be nerfed in a prerun. So, here it is complete.

| Added
padding for the passengers, when not wearing helmets.
Picked up some clear 3M number plate background for some
of the cage, to save from scratches. I know, I know, this is probably pushing it a little too far. I can't help it.

| | How did
you paint the whole front bowtie red without painting the stock mesh grill? I have the same style grill on my 05 silverado
and the piece you have painted red is all attached to the stock mesh grill. I know the obvious answer would be to tape off
the grill but it fits so tight together the paint would never look right. |

We do it all the time. There is a defined line between the mesh grille area and the grille shell.
Most body shop can handle it. BTW, my bowtie isn't red, it's black.

KMC, to be exact 6 x 5.5. They use a machine, jigged up to drill out the holes, and chamfer the holes seperately. Keep in
mind if you drill those holes by hand, and the tolerance of the 6 x 5.5 is compromised, you are no long lug centric, and it's
barely hub centric with 4.25 center bore. So be careful. The last thing you want is your wheel coming loose on the trail.
I should have the ankle padding done soon. LOL

| | I meant
the piece that the bowtie is bolted onto. The long piece that usually comes chrome from the dealership. How did you paint
that piece red? (The piece that seperates the two halves of the front grill) |

Take it to a body shop, it's really not that big of a deal. If you have any more questions about
grilles and bowties, hit me up at the shop 925-634-3222.
