Hey flk5crawler Nice job on the doors, what are you using for a handle to open them with?
You got a shot of how you did those rock sliders? I am building a 73 K5 and want to do something like that so my rockers dont look like my trucks do now..

The old door lock rod comes through the door .It has a skull knob on it to pull to open the doors.I'm going to post a build up thread in a few days with alot more detailed pics,I don't want to hijack the thread.There is some pics on my webshots with slider pics.

i did the shackle flip from ORD. Money well spent too.
I was seeing how it flexed after I did the 6" lift with the new dana 60.
I figured out that I need longer shocks now, they are stopping me.
I will go and check out your photos and see how you did the linkages.
I will try to get up a pic of the skins I made for the rainy season, they came out nice. got zippered windows in them too like the jeep guys.

i wish i could drop $180 on a flip kit but i'm on a broke college kid's budget. i would spend that money on a 12 or 14 bolt rear and dana front if i had it. o well. dang...new 8 lug axles= new 8 lug rims....haha i love spendin the money i dont have. :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
