My 1993 RCSB Build.

[Pierced]

Awesome build!

Dang thats a great looking truck, great build thread! Always good to find those junkyard, craigslist finds!!!

Damn that's a lot of improvements! Looks great man.

love a slammed obs, very clean, nice to see it at the meet!

Was good to see this in person. Pictures dont do that tank justice! Color is amazing in person

This. Love the way that tank looks in person :shake:

Thanks guys!

Didn't know you were on here allen , truck looks great

I'm everywhere, like a ninja

Update:

Started working on my new front inner fenders/wheel tubs.

This is kinda what I am going for here.

I want to add some sort of side to it kinda like they did there too.

I have my tandem fender and sheet metal to smooth out the fender sides and cover up all the factory holes.

Heres what I started with minus the overflow. I have a billet overflow on it now.

Got the driver side inner fender out on Wednesday after work.

Did all this yesterday.

New tabs for mounting the battery tray.

Cut the brackets off the battery tray.

Got the passenger side out and re mounted the battery. Don't worry the tie down is only temporary until I make a battery hold down bar.

Under the battery tray. All this was ziptied up and cleaned up a bit after the pic was taken.

I will be notching the fenders tomorrow at work where I can use the plasma cutter.

Arms should be back from powdercoating today too :thumbsup:

Are you going t lwo enough where you'll have to relocate the battery? Looks like it could get in the way if you run a big enough rim and you're laying frame.

 

[Pierced]

I moved the battery a couple inches towards the firewall and raised it a few inches and looks like it should clear my 245/35/20s. My current wheel/tire is what I will be running for a while but if I do upgrade to a bigger wheel or tire I will prob go ahead and relocate the battery into the tool box with my tank.

Mmmm candy red powdercoat.

Got the uppers together and the master cylinder.

 

[07burb]

wow those came out nice! I love that color

 

[Pierced]

bye bye stock lowers.

The tires clear the fenders without cutting and lays out in the front now.

New master cylinder is on and the ABS is deleted. I ended up not needing the fitting to adapt the lines on the abs delete, the line just screwed right into the proportioning valve.

Got almost all the new brackets and pulleys together from the junk yard. Just need to get a crankshaft pulley, idler, and a alternator then they will go off to powder coat, candy red brackets and silver pulleys/ silver alt housing.

Chopped on the fenders some at work with the plasma cutter.

Definitely ripped my valance off after I got it the fenders cut up lol.

Random picture.

I saw that yesterday, why you selling it?

Just kinda threw it up to see what kind of offers I got and if someone wanted to give asking price I would prob let it go. I really want a CC dually OBS too lol.


Been getting a little work done.

Got one cleaned up and just threw a quick coat of paint on it so it wouldn't rust up again. I might mess with the other one some today after work.

Got some new tail lights.

Got some film put on my windshield. The stuff is made by Sun-Tek and is called CXP80, has 80% light transfer, 44% heat rejection (about the same as most 20% dark tint), and its not very reflective. This stuff is super clear and doesn't even look like anythings on the window but I could tell a difference in how much heat was coming through the windshield. We will see how it does today after sitting in the sun at work all day.

The film is on the windshield now.

Put a brow back on top of the CXP80.

Here's where we cut around the inspection sticker to show how clear this stuff is.

Hit a bit of snag while Workin on em the other day. The pass side is too big for my battery to fit back in. I am going to go ahead and relocate the battery back to the tool box. I still have to pull the pass side back out to trim it cause its not sitting level.

What the battery would look like in the tool box .

The plan so far is to come off the battery in the tool box with the 4/0 into a ANL fuse holder(unsure on what size fuse to run on this main run?), then up to the engine bay to a 1 in/ 2 out distribution block, from the block one run of 4/0 to the new 140a alt I just ordered, the other 4/0 run will go to the starter, then piggy back off the starter to the truck distribution block on the firewall with some 4awg, does that sound like that should work pretty well?

Should I fuse the starter and alternator runs from the distribution block?

I also ordered some new stainless braided brake lines too. Once I get the new alt and brake lines here I will be taking my spindles, calipers, engine brackets, pulleys, and EDC mount in for candy red metallic and silver powder coating.

beautiful man.i love this truck

beautiful man.i love this truck

Thanks man.


New powdercoated 140a alt came in and some new stainless braided brake lines.

Some of the goods for my battery relocation project.

Got my primary run of 4/0 made up that will go from the tool box up to the engine bay and modded one of the fuse holders to accept the ginormous 4/0 wire lol.

Still waiting on a couple more fuse holders, distribution block, and some grommets before I can finish it all up. I also scooped up a set of 6.5" infinity components to go in the doors, ordered a 4awg wiring kit so I can get my 4ch hooked up finally, and ordered some speaker baffles for the 6.5s and for the 4x6s in the rear pillars. Later today when I get off I will finally be dropping off a box of parts to be powder coated.

I haz new pictures.

There's a few spots I'm not real happy with on a couple parts but I don't think the spots will be visible once installed, at least I hope anyway. I want to get started but its like 9000* outside right now so eff that.


Got the last of the big parts for the edc just need a couple misc fittings.

More fuses, fuse holders, grommets, EGR block off.

4ch amp kit and some speaker baffles.

 

[Pierced]

Those were already broken which was part of the motivation for doing all this.

Went ahead and scooped up a new water pump and hit it with some gloss engine paint.

Put on a billet EGR delete plate. Thing runs better then ever now surprisingly.

I replaced all the nuts and bolts I could with grade 8 hardware for mounting the brackets.

I am gonna try to get the EDC mounted today and do some more engine clean up, re routing of wires, and get some better pictures.

I need to do my intake now.

 

[statonburrell]
