Re: My '87 SWB Project w/pics!!

Well I got a little further this weekend. I spent Saturday pulling weeds and trimming hedges (did not plan on doing that); took my son to play a basketball game, put the bed on the truck to measure were I needed to cut the filler door in the bed floor, which i did not get it cut yet , but it will the next couple of days. Today I drilled the holes in the front and rear braces, that holds the fuel tank, to bolt up the skid plate. What a PITA, but I guess when your tooling with these ole trucks it's to be expected. Wasn't too bad I don't guess. The reason there is not bolt in the right side of the rear brace for the skid plate is that I forgot to re-tap it. I had to re-tap all the nut-holes in the skid plate due to the rust. There is always 1 you either forget or one that gives you hell.

3r!c84, I forgot to take a pick of underneath the bed, I should be able to get it done tomorrow evening after work.
