Gutted my bus last weekend, gonna tackle the lower rust in it as it’s way past due but had some sweet rocker trim that covered it up so it didn’t look so bad… After the camping supplies and kit was removed I think the rear raised up 2”. I have another set of torsions to put in as I think my current ones are weak and are twisting, I’ve reindexed the rear 3 times over the past couple years and it keeps sagging in the rear.
Crusty along the edges. Does it need cargo floor sections? Bottom 6” on a bus always need love.
yea I “patched” the floor with license plates and 3m 8115 eight or so years ago when I put the bus together. It seems to have held up but the rest has been getting worse. Gonna do both rockers, jack points, outriggers, B and C pillars, outer floors, lower inner/outer cargo doors, doglegs, front floors, and the lower inner/outer nose. Time to show it some love.
Double cab looks awesome! Can’t wait to see it in person. The rockets will be awesome to get fixed, winter camping is here 😀 . Baja will be fun, seems like all of us have one or are building one now. We could probably start on our own race between all of us.
Update… been a rough month or so for us, my grandma (last of my real family) passed 11/10 and thankfully we were able to get back to see her before she passed and then we had to take care of her affairs, then 12/8 we were rear ended in my truck/trailer by a drunk driver while we were moving a purchased recumbent exercise elliptical for the mother in law. The truck,trailer, and elliptical are all a total loss and dealing with stupid insurance still with that. Rodney and I are ok, however Leeann suffers from whiplash and a slight concussion from it and is doing pt and getting better each day.
Thanks JJ for the shirt, it definitely arrived at the perfect time
I spent as much time as I could between Christmas and New Years on my vacation and got most of the rust cut out and new tacked in, just gotta burn it all in and get it bodyworked and painted.
Hope everyone had a merry Christmas ans and a happy New Years.
