Progress is looking good! I think the poke is too much. Personally I'd try to get them in to tuck or at least flush. Its hard to say what the best way to do that is without the final wheels or knowing the rear track width. Those front factory shock mounts you're using for the coilovers aren't designed to support the weight of the truck, so I think you'll run into trouble if you don't make different heavy duty shock hoops. Sounds like you're considering a lot of that already. Can't wait to see this thing come together!
Trucks gonna look tough. Id like to see a widebody on it . Nothing too wide but something thatll fatten it out some. Cant wait to see that IRS under the truck also.
Awesome progress Dustin. Nice job on the cleanup. My shop is always in some state of disaster :) I'm always very impressed with you guys that just wing it on stuff like integrating that rear suspension. I would scan everything and get it into CAD first. I think the poke is a bit excessive though. Would it be easier to get some 6 lug wheels and get new flanges made for the rear maybe?
Nice work. I agree, there is plenty of room for some taller shock towers under the hood of that truck. I really wanna know what you said to your wife to make her pop you in the nose like that. 😂😂😂
Have you had any problems with the wheel adapters not being hub centric? I am planning on doing something similar in my S10, with the Mustang IRS and a Silverado front suspension. I want to use the Mustang wheels.
Can’t wait to see how that IRS mounts in ! I have a 2013 Camaro IRS waiting to go in mine
Nice!!
I love y'all man

Thanks for the input. Yeah lots more to come on the front

Yeah we’re definitely going to have to figure out that stance and what to do? Once I get the IRS under it we’ll get into it.

Thanks yeah definitely need to figure out a way to get rid of those spacers…
Updates???? I just binged watched all this because I'm doing a very similar build 😅
Working through it, hopefully a week or two before another video
@@FactoryFreshChannel looking forward to it! Thanks for the reply

Haha she keeps me in line. Probably buying to many car parts
Would you be kind enough to post the viking coilovers part numbers you bought for this project? Thanks in advance!
I’ll take a look at it and let you know

No. I was worried about that too but the conical lug nuts centered everything perfectly from what I can tell
Coming along nicely,it’s gonna be a beast!👹rest those nostrils 👃 👍🏼
Haha will do
Oem or reps on the zo6 wheels?
I may be stepping up to a larger wheel size? We’ll see
Way too much poke.
