Been mulling over how I was gonna get The Van on the Dodge Ram frame. Gonna use your video as a reference, lol. The tough part for me is where the swoopy bit that raises up for the bed; the floor of The Van is flat. Either I'm going to have to cut out the swoopy bit and have a super raked frame (or put leveling kit on the front), or cut and raise the floor in the back half of The Van. Not sure how we're gonna grease that pig yet, but I'll figure it out. In either case, thanks for the video! Glad to see Desperado back on the menu and moving full steam ahead!
Ooohh yeah that’s the issue I ran into, but without the frame. The van was really high in the back after I put the diff in. I like the idea of a levelling kit in front, jacked up vans look nuts! Man I couldn’t wait to get back at Desperado, the only thing holding me back was a good frame and I finally got one 😁
It's been proven over an over that a square cut is equally as strong as a diagonal cut. You're confusing it with a joint of wood where it's joined with glue where as steel is fuzed with a weld.
I got my knuckle while cutting the bump stops off that s10, didnt notice until i seen the puddle of blood (great band name btw) on my leg 🤣 then i almost cut my finger tip completely off like a week later
It was such a joy to watch this video and it was super educational. I'm happy for you and your build
Well hey I appreciate the kind words 🙂 have a great day
I saved this to my " watch later " list. I like what you're saying, but I have had too many beers . Lol.
This one’s best enjoyed sober 🤪
Or well maybe two or less 😁

I was never dead. I was just looking like it.
My wife and I have been watching a gallon of mead ferment for the past week, can’t wait to try it around Christmas
An other good video and this time you have a solid frame by the looks of it 👍🏼👍🏼💯
It is very solid! Can’t wait to get the cab and bed on it
Can't get over how clean that frame is man. Wicked base to start Desperadp with!
It’s the best I’ve seen around here!

That was enjoying watching this, look to seeing more videos
The next video will be out on Wednesday 🙂
Great video. Good editing.
Thanks R S!
Shes full short bus now. Ready for all kinds of silly stunts. 😂👍
All of the shenanigans!
@@StationroadRatrods now I want to watch super troopers. Lol
@Jordy-927 go watch it right meow
@@StationroadRatrods lol. Such a great movie.
If you think you need to,you could put a 1x6 strap on top and bottom of frame over the weld.
I’m happy with how the frame and the fish plate worked out, it’s plenty strong 🙂

I did the exact same thing to my finger, except it was a zip cut wheel, cut right to the bone.....

Same finger?
@@StationroadRatrodsnah, did fry it with a weld the same day tho
@brandonleisure9999 ahhh shit, slag burns are worse than cuts
What size is your shop? Do you have a video “walkthrough” of it perhaps?
Great video by the way
Shop walkthrough! #shorts #reply #thanksforasking #shortsreply #cool #goodquestion
Thank you!
If there was areally big glob of birdshit on the frame it would look like I welded it!
I feel the same way about mine most days 🙃
