1 question, how do you plan on painting the cab underside? I am almost to this point and wonder what the best order? I was thinking about painting the bottom firewall and interior before mounting on the frame. Then paint the panels before assembly.
I plan on pulling the cab off the frame and paint it on Jack stands. This worked well when I stripped and primer-ed the cab. I was able to prime it all at once. I also plan on removing the engine and transmission one more time. I am not sure of the condition of the clutch, flywheel and throw-out bearing. Thanks
