    Hey forum mods and admins.

    On some of my other online car forums, some of them have a forum called "project logs/recent mods"

    In that forum users can create a thread dedicated to their truck. They can post the trucks history and also have a place where one can post their progress as far as modding is concerned.

    This is a valuable place if some members are tracking a trucks progress and need to refer back to see how a mod was completed- gains versus problems and general discussion.

    I've got a project log for my Avenger that is 30 or so pages long that details my engine swap- transmission rebuild- how I had the custom axles made- how I built and tuned my Megasquirt ECU- built my electrical system... ect...

    The idea is that all the relevant information is on one place and easy to follow.

    It just a great place to watch someone as they build their truck. Separate from the normal performance section or general discussion.

    2 cents

    :)

    Well, I know I could Move Doms into that thread.... Find me 10 or so that have threads dedicated to what you speak and I have no problem helping with the request for a dedicated forum for such projects

    OK. I'll create a thread in general to ask for a list of those who would like to create a project log.

    THANKYOU!

    Thank you for making the:

    "Viper Truck Builds
    This is for those that have major build and want to share the experience"

    Thread. I would ask that the name be changed to "Project Logs/Recent Mods" and change the verbiage of the description.. As there are many members who are not in the middle of, or would ever attempt a "major" build. The idea is a place where any member can share their vehicle and the specifics of where they are at, regardless of how much money or time has been invested.

    Even the little guy who is proud of his new floormats and window tint will have a place to post.

    There is a reason for "major build", other wise they can just post there floor mat upgrades here:
    Visual Mods - Dodge Ram SRT-10 Forum - Viper Truck Club of America

    and their used but almost new plug wires here:
    Performance Mods - Dodge Ram SRT-10 Forum - Viper Truck Club of America
