Jas21 06-30-2003, 03:21 AM i was thinking either shave it off or try to fill in the lines in it to make it all smooth but im not sure ive never really done anything like that yet just use fine grit around 1200? sand paper and sand it down right? B16EF 06-30-2003, 01:06 PM Thanks for the compliments:smile: Jas21 your truck is lookin pretty good man:cool: How are you planning to do the rear suspension? To get the door trim off, I used a dremel to get close(but not perfect) then sanded the rest. bah humbug 06-30-2003, 05:46 PM Isn't C02 carbon dioxide? T\/\/iN-Tu|2Bo 06-30-2003, 06:20 PM Hehe.... think he meant "NO2" Killer truck man:thumbsup: B16EF 07-01-2003, 10:57 PM Originally posted by bah humbug Isn't C02 carbon dioxide? Hehe.... think he meant "NO2" Killer truck man compressed air... for the "airbag suspension" TheSyndicate 07-02-2003, 01:12 AM :lol: If that thing were filled with nitrous, that would be one crazy-fast truck. But yep it's for the airbag suspension. I've seen some people that use nitrous in their suspensions, though. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
