      Do you have any pics of the the wheel well side side of the minitub? I'm looking to minitub mine this winter. I'm currently running a 3 link and am wondering if I need to relocate my front lower link mounts inboard or not. I'm guessing not.

      Did you just use replacement wheel tubs?



      Cheers,

      Hey Wes..

      I looked through all of my pics but didn't find any...

      I used a stock replacement inner fender and cut the old one long to give me about 3 extra inches ... also trimmed and reinforced the wheel side of frame rail.. the lip part that is welded to the floor.. I'm sure you will find a better way than I did since you have the cool tools and all the talent.. : )

      Very interesting. Did you have to move the frame rails also? Did you move the leafs or set up a 4-link.
      Thanks Mike

      Hey Guys..

      Sorry I need to set my threads up to email me when I get replies... Have not got as far along as I would have liked at this point but I do have 4 kids so sometimes time and money are not always unlimited.. : )

      I did get it running last week and all the bugs worked out with wiring etc.. Will be going in for paint soon.. I'll take new pics this week..

      Looks great, can't wait to see it in paint. I think you nailed the stance and wheel/tire package.

      However long you think your project will take, double it and you might be halfway right.

      Hey Guys... a little update.. paint has taken forever because it's hard to find an honest body man.. So it's not quite finished yet but does look a little different..
