awesome! yeah forums almost dead thats why i decided to do my build this way other than posting photos here and there on IG or FB. Making the videos have given me motivation as well to keep on it. Thanks for the comment! :)
Killing it dude! Looks great. Looks like the same color as mine. The passenger side is pretty rotted on mine, good to see yours is in good shape. I didn’t have the time/ability to do it myself so it’s been at a buddies shop for a year now waiting for them to get some time (price is right at free). Can’t wait to see you rollin this one!!!
Its taken a lot of work to get just this far for sure haha. Ive been itching to get it done because i wanna drive it. had it for way to long without doing anything to it. This year I've been working on it a lot
What under dash master cylinder you going to use? I’ve been trying to wrap my brain around what I want to do or use but as far as brake booster I want to have the same mechanical advantage if I’m going boosterless
While this is a very cool project I would like to send a warning to all watching and learning from videos like this. When you are cutting or grinding metal with that high-speed wheel, and also when you are welding- you are literally vaporizing that metal. If you do not at least kick on a fan or set up your workspace with some kind of decent ventilation you are basically vaping steel straight into your bloodstream. I beg of you, practice good ventilation or you are going to pay an unspeakable price, and it's only a matter of time. Your vital organs do not mix well with heavy metals.
Currently tackling this on my 79 ! so glad to find some new content on doing this after going thru so many ancient forums. thanks for the inspo!!

Make that old tail gate a table just seal the patina in with apoxy
Yeah i wanna do something with it for sure
Nice 👍
Nice job and super dope editing...
Question what's the purpose of making the towers taller?
It will make the car sit lower than a car with regular height towers given the same suspension setup.
Yup what Brandon said, also helps when you lower it to give yourself more travel so you’re not riding on the bump stops per say
the reason are you doing this is because when you put the air suspension is going to be more better because you have more room
yup
How are you gonna do the rear suspensions? Is there a kit you can buy for it or will you be designing it yourself?
The rear 4-link i was going to build my own. But having it built from the SeenIt guy. He's build several

I plan on using the CKW2 kit. I already have it ordered and it should be here this week I believe. I plan on making a install video for it 👍🏼
Paul Lehman awesome! Subscribed and followed on ig! Motivation to get my rabbit done!
sgiza228 awesome thanks!
Dude, how much do you want for your scribe/shim kit? I'm planning on doing the same with my towers and that little trick would save a lot of headache.
It helped me a little for sure. I just wanted the cut line to be straight. I'm sure i could come up with something to sell or rent.
I've got two trucks and a convertible. The second truck is becoming a trailer and the vert is just for parts so I have two good front ends as extras.
@@turtlebone That helps for sure!
Make a table out of your spare tailgate. Like I did.
Might do something like that or a bench outta it
is this thing even done yet?
Sadly no... :( still plugging away at it though!
Towers came out looking great! Planning on a fully shaved bay?
I plan on shaving it is as much as i can. I have done a lot so far! thanks :)
