Bottobro's Build. Laura let's get SASSY

[bottobro]

Awesome, man! I just finished gutting the interior of mine. Got rust to deal with before I get to do the fun stuff

Never had that problem with my truck. The guy that owned it before must have garaged it because there is not a speck of it. I mean I did the 2" BL and I could have done it without pb hahah

Haha, whoops. I forgot to throw in there It's not an Xterra I'm working on. I just bought a 1981 Chevy K5 Blazer as a Resto project. Little bit of rust on it. Frame, Drivetrain and Motor are all in good shape though.

Just ordered my Scan gauge! Now i can really tell how crappy my fuel consumption is!

 

[Prime]

You don't need a scan gauge. I can tell you that your consumption is terrible.

He apparently doesn't answer emails. Your better off calling I hear

 

[caseycamby]

Yeah I know. I talked to him a while back and he said to email him because of the special requests mine had.. We'll see how it goes

 

[Prime]

Email him the specifics, call to follow up and remind him of the email. That's how to run it. heh.

[Prime]

Hells yes! Is yours tubeless as well?

 

[bottobro]

Hells yes! Is yours tubeless as well?

yea didnt feel like welding it on myself, plus i could always add after lol

 

[Prime]

I think that the tubeless look is bettah. Once it's mounted, throw the tube up there and see what you think.

 

[bottobro]
