i did notice that but i believe i coverred it in the first post.
time played a huge factor in the outcome.
the length is such because it was originally cut to fit a hummer chassis but i wasn't happy with the hieght so it went on an extended evo after it was already together and puttied.
again,time came into play.

Regardless that is one AWSOME looking van. great job turning that Dodge into a GMC! Mr. T would be proud!

that was one of my concerns at the beginning of the build.
i didn't have much to go on(had to build the bumper) and had to mount the shell + the brushgaurd.
my solution was to add a solid piece of styrene stock behind the bumper spanning between the rails of the brushgaurd,the front clip screws into the styrene stock.


thanks for all the cool posts guys.
please keep in mind though that i only had 2 weeks to turn a halved dodge van that was missing most of the parts into a GMC A-Team van.

cheers,
