1992 Stepside Xmod

You might wait on the mounting until you have the bed finished. Without something to secure the rear, the cab will pop off. For a front clip, I always cut a square of plastic and then cut the shape of the clip out of that. You could start on that, but without the bed you won't be able to make it fully secure.

I have seen people use velcroe on the sides on the battery tray and inside of the body, if you get some heavy duty stuff this might be an option to consider.

i used that befor, exept i didnt have it on the battery tray, I think i may try that. thanks

im doing a plastic molding modual in Design/Manufacturing class next week. so that will give me a chance to work on my truck body in school

thanks for the ideas, you have been a big help. And just wondering where can i pick up some of this "Putty"

[Ol'Rover]

yeah, so i was testing for front wheel clearence today, makeing sure everything was turning and not getting caught, took it drifting around my room...and had an epic crash! a wheel nut came loose and came off and when i was in the midst of a drift it hit the chair! everything flew apart...i had my camera out so i took pictures

[Ol'Rover]

Still not sure what to do about the box, I chopped it on the right side of the tailgate, And placed it on, but since its a stepside theres a hunk of the box that hangs waay out past the cab now, and it dosnt look right. I also have my front fenderflares on and ill post some pictures.

any ideas on what i should do about the box?

[Ol'Rover]

front fender flares complete, Just need to worry about the box now.

thats quite the project you got there. one tip on the wheel nuts to prevent them from coming off you could get the aluminum wheels nuts they come in various colours too. and you can get them off www.ebay.ca umm www.xmodsinternational.com and www.atomicmods.com

looks really sweet for a chevy sorry im a ford guy lol but lets not start a flame war over ford vs chevy. looks good and what are your plans for paint if you dont mind me asking

[Ol'Rover]

not sure at the moment, But i was thinking Orange with black mouldings and rims.

[Ol'Rover]

Progress! Started to make the mould for the new box, I might be changing this project to a fleetside instead, im going to vacum form the box probably tommorow or monday

Then eventually im going to vacum form the whole truck.

Alot of people have made a Project with the Silverados and that all have turned out great looking. Good luck

[TheXmodifyer]

[firebird]

[TheXmodifyer]

[noturday]

firebird please start reading before you post, he just said it's broken and he wont be able to finish it.
