Default Leaf Spring TLT Scaler Chevy Hard Body

Thats bunk I had a write up and was about to post it with pics to start my thread then I lost it haha but anyways, heres is my scaler im starting from scratch. Anyone who reconizes things, yes this truck used to be this: New Build (step by step) By A Newbie To Crawling!

OK any questions just ask! It's easier then typing everthing out which people don't like to read anyways

I really wanted to do one of those cartoon guys with the thread but I don't have a figure big enough, so it just didn't look right!


TLT axles etc. that im using


Home made frame, now that I finally got material to make it out of! To bad I dont have any very good things to cut it with.




not bad for only having a jigsaw, hand grinder, and bench grinder/wire brush if you ask me

now Im off to do a mock up to see what size I'm going to have to make my leaf springs. Im using a lawn mower recoil. Should be another tuff job! but worth it when done Should be happy sailing after that point.
