|  Diaz Designs hi-lift build well i started my build of my truck. i ordered a set of ball bearings but they won't be here for a couple of days. so i started on the chassis. i got the hole patterns lay out and i cut one out of alum. today. once i get the whole thing put together i can change the chassis around to make sure everything looks and fits good . here's a coiple of shots so far, so for the crappy pics but my other camera took a dump  |

|  Hey those look awesome  I havent seen the factory ones so maybe you could do a comparison shot. Were you able to find the bearings you needed at WALAWALA? Good luck on your build |

| I'll take durability and performance over looks. The F350s frame rails, although aren't as scale as that of the Bruiser or Mounty, are more durable that more scale offerings. |
