  • This is episode 3 of project defiance.
    This is just the start of the long process of building one of these trucks, but in this episode it mostly is covering the install of the cab cage and trying to get most of what is involved for that.
    These products also will all apply for Chevy Silverado’s as well.
    The end goal of this truck is to have long travel, back half, 4 link truck, something to take the family out and explore with, whether that’s track side at KOH or going out to glamis or ocotillo maybe even some overlanding trips

    Your roll cage build resembles a bomb shelter. 👍

    I just started gutting my interior for their 9906 cage. What pads were you using on the die grinder to clean the milscale off?

    Does the cage come with instructions on the order to put things in and weld them?

    • @connorellisx
      @connorellisx  3 місяці тому +1

      Not really, it comes with a printed out form showing where things kind of should go off of, maybe other ones that have more done have better more detailed instructions but I’m the second one on this specific cage

      @connorellisx damn, I'm gonna be picking up at 2015 silverado. Would love to do this but dammn the price. Gotta pay to play I guess. Love the content. I was so nervous when u cut the rear fenders. I don't know if I would have the balls to cut up a good truck

      @@rayvettevlogs trust me I’m terrified! I mean there’s a ton of options that aren’t nearly this involved, like getting an LT kit and rear shocks that get you out and having fun with a badass truck, this level frankly is just all consuming at this point for me but I am really enjoying it!

      @connorellisx it's definitely a badass build I wish one day my truck will be like this. I'm just kinda on the fence about the afm bullshit with Chevy. Ima be picking up a used 15 silverado. Ima have to do the afm delete I'm buying the truck for a v8 not a 4cylinder. So dumb. I would love to get a 2005 like my bros but they are all beat and a ton of mile . He made it all full long travel. It's not caged but it's close to what u have done.

      @@rayvettevlogs honestly I don’t hate on the AFM, lifter may fail on you at like 120-150k miles, but that’s the perfect opportunity to throw a cam in and make a repair a fun upgrade instead. The LT motors make a lot more power and are all aluminum blocks so they are a lot lighter. It’s a better motor in my opinion
