My truck is a 1989 isuzu. It's powered by a 350 chevy V8 with a turbo 350 tranny. When i bought it it was a basket case. I've never seen that much bailing wire and speaker wire holding stuff together. I cut all the inner sheet metal and core support out from the firewall foreward and used round tubing to frame it in. It's a lot cleaner now. I then bought some suburban wheels and put some low pros on it for now.
After getting it cleaned up.
After driving it a couple weeks i got bored and decided to bag it. But I like to fabricate so I designed and made all my bag mounts and my entire 2-link setup.
Here's the notch and the new crossmember for the relocated gas tank.
Another pic of the notch with my 2-link bars just bolted in.

Air tank mounts and custom bag mounts.

Back of truck almost all the way up. 15" of lift total from rear. and that's measuring at the wheel well lip not the roll pan.
