What’s up fellas.. been a while since I posted last.. neways long story short I wait and waited for my suspension parts from Keith over a Nfamus.. well I finally got them.. got 80% of interior sound deader installed.. and most of the 2/0 cable run to the rear for stereo.. . Blah blah.. what I’m lookin for is some help form somebody that knows more about bagging than I. And also somebody that weld better than i! It not asking for free. I’m good to go for paying.. love to get started ASAP but still waiting mon my bags and compressor along with hose and blah.. but I’m looking to spend what I have to spare around $500 maybe little more for few day help.. and I’ll be there to help the whole time.. also don’t expect everything done just some help so I can learn more. Hopefully some you guy will offer up so I can get in my final stages.. I do have all tools and welder but not gas which sucks.. I can have it striped and ready where parts go and anything else prep setting on jack stand., this is a 100% give you mine word as man just looking for some help but don’t expect it free. In the Shreveport area not fear from Clyde fant Park way.. help me out fellows .. please get back with me even if answer is nope.. thanks for all in advance.. hope to post pics soon as I get her on the ground..

Dennis up there is definitely a good guy and good help when it comes to several things.
What exactly are you trying to do/need help with? Putting on your bag components/notching/etc? Going to be hard to find someone to weld/do that unless you can weld like you said and just need help removing the bed/holding stuff, etc.
I know previously you said you didn’t have FB but if you do or if you have Instagram look up Pomp’s rod shop. He’s in Keithville/Stonewall and someone I’d let work on/bag my stuff but he’s a shop so you’d have to get a quote and see what he charges if you’re willing to go that route. Use to be on here as @johnny-O

Right on fellas .. appreciate the responses for sure.. all in all I’ve already dropped the truck with mg spindles and flip kit with frame notch.. I now have tubular control arms top and bottom along with bag mounts .. a gas tank crossmember to raise it.. along with full 3link wishbone and watts link for the rear all with bag mounts and of course a new full c notch.. to tuck 26s.. unfortunately still no Facebook.. just not my thing brotha.. I prefer to do the work for the satisfaction of hey I did this but I still want it all right in the end not just that will work..when I do it..
working on getting bags and rest components ordered now but still rather pay somebody to help rather than a shop but I may have to go that route.. just be more savings and time.

I’m the same way but really don’t know anyone with those kind of fab skills other than Johnny and he recently opened his shop. As much as I’d like to do/learn, etc if I were to bag my truck tomorrow he’s who I’d hit up and get a quote from as he’s a straight forward honest dude.
These are a few of his personal rides he’s done most the work on...

Right on man.. well I’ve looked and looked for a number or some type contact info for Johnny and found is Instagram but no location other than a dot on map far side of 49.. any other info would be awesome or if somebody could help me out getting in touch .. thanks again for looking out fellas..

Do you have Instagram? Best bet would be a message on there since you don’t have FB to message him. His number is on this flyer though so I’m sure you could shoot him a text and set up a call with him or something. Know him personally and he’s a solid dude
Well I broke down and started myself. Got driver side wheel assembly taken apart and most I got back on was lower control arm.. just getting it on was a pain and still need to press my ball joint in. Figured I’d try and find time cut my sling pocket and upper control arm tabs off along with bump stop get to welding my tabs on for the uppers.. sure would help if Nfamus sent a signal piece of how to paper with these parts lol.. either that or I’m just dumbass.. can’t hardly find anything at all about installing other than a random picture of damn s10s.. .. if anybody wants to plan swing through and help a brotha out.. I can feed and beer ya along with some cash.. just hit me back..
Also does anybody have a clue how to remove the upper from the spindle.. I know it’s a 10 mil with a Allen thread screw but I can’t get enough slack to get a wrench or socket on the nut and then Allen through it..
