what was the ride like? I planned to use the 1 ton springs with normal ride height. was it rough or just didn't feel right?

See the difference in the frame on where it bends, i think it will be better in the long run especially if i haul with it.
what made the old setup bad as far as load?

It rode fine the whole 200 ish miles that i drove it. I ended up putting the crew cab on my X cab frame and shortening the bed like a newer 5.5 style trucks. I put overload bags on it and it rides great. Im in the middle of doing a 6.0 4l80 conversion in it now..

I scrapped the old grafted frame idea because it was going to be my tow pig and i had the perfect setup with the other truck.

All good on my end. Just popped on looking at some stuff and decided to check out how you were coming on yours. Picked up a '53 thinking about putting a 6.0/4l80 in it, have a 454/th400 sitting in it right now but not driveable yet. Still have the ole '64 too(sitting just like it was the last time I updated the thread...). Anyway, gotta start getting back on here again for motivation, been too long without playing with this stuff.

With everything you have going on I don't know when you have time to work on your stuff. Keep working at it though, you'll have it together before long. Gotta have a tow rig, right?

BTW, wanna repin a harness for me? :lol:

Not sure i would use half ton suspension and keep it a dually but that's me. Mine is a heavy half 6lug frame.

So i picked him up at lunch and we went to check it out, she has some problems but if we were worked like this ol work truck has been we would too :lol: it has a 454 tbi and auto trans, and with a little negotiating we drove it home for $400. :metal:

What a story. Ended up being a cool rig. Hopefully you can finish it to your satisfaction. Nice work on all of the rigs you painted.
