Thanks bud, I can't wait to get everything on the truck. My conservative goal is to make 900 on fuel. I think once Mark does some tweaking we should be a lot closer to 4 digits though. I just don't want to set my sights too high and be let down by these 60 overs.

He's local to me and I saw his price drop...i damn near drove to industrial and snagged it right then but I saw you bought it first. You sir, got a deal of a lifetime.

I agree. I don't think I stole the thing but I know I got myself a great transmission for a lot less than it would cost to build. Knowing it was built by George at Dipper and Spec'd by Andrew specifically for the demands of his truck gives me a ton of confidence since I won't be making anywhere near that kind of power.

I would think George at Suncoast built it not Big Dipper.

Not built by big dipper. It was built here by My builder George here at SC. Built to the tilt.

Oh, I completely misunderstood that. I assumed when a guy named George built a trans it was done in Maryland haha. All the same, should be great!!!

you came out on top trust me. George is quiet and low key but he is on point. Anyone who has been building these for a while will tell you the same.
I believe it. I'm pumped to have it. I plan on torturing it to the best of my ability for ya!

Got some pictures of the progress from Chris. Been waiting to do a few of these things for a while and now seems like the best time to do them since the truck is down anyways. Kryptonite UCAs, SuperSteer Idler pivot, Moog pitman and idler arms, Rare parts tie rods, drop shackles, airbags, true trac, mag hytec cover, rollpan, bigchevyhitch hidden hitch. While the motor is out of the way Chris put all new brake lines in the truck and the bed was off so it got a new fuel sending unit with a ppe pickup and 5/8 line all the way to the motor. Everything is pretty much back together out back and the motor should be back in the truck within the next couple days. Can;t wait to get this thing back on the road!!

What kind of bags did you get? Are they desidned for the ass end to be dropped? From everything I've read the standard kits won't work with the rear end dropped.

A truetrac will hold that kind of power?
I hope so....

I believe they are pac air bags. Chris did some test fitting and there doesn't seem to be any clearance issue. I think the shackles only drop the rear 2".
