*UPDATE*
Sorry it has been awhile, I have alot of projects for other truck owners I have been busy with and between this build and my "X-MAX" build I have to watch how fast I am putting money into these rigs. I never have a stock truck to test product on so it's been nice not going super fast...
Here is the reason I put this build on hold for a few months --> http://www.thetruckstop.us/forum/showthread.php?38949-LML-3500HD-Dually-Nor-Cal-Nick%92s-Hauler-Project&p=443575#post443575
But now I am back on Project X-MAX and if all goes to plan the new suspension I have been looking at...

* UPDATE *
Ok so here is the first pictures of alot of the reason this build has been on my mind for awhile, I defiantly want more days and full trips like this! My son turned 4 years old on July 24th and leading up to his birthday I asked him what he wanted to do and he said "I want to ride...
We are happy to anounce a new project for NorCal Truck.
The idea behind the build:
Growing up in an environment where camping was a frequent activity and the basis for just about every family vacation, it’s only natural that it has carried over into my own family and I plan to continue this...

Here we have metal in place of the shocks to hold the suspension at ride height while the truck is in the air and we are working on it. Finding center plum on the frame:
