Re: '59 Apache "Low and Mean" long term project

Got an update on the truck. Finally got around to starting on the frame. Got the rear dropped out need to get the spring perches cut off now. Dropped the front suspension out yesterday and cut my front horns off for the core support and bumper brackets. Rolled the subframe up to the front. I'll start looking at where to cut the frame off at this weekend.

My original axle center line is 29" from the front of the rivet on the cab mount. Is this what you guys normally have? If so, am I right saying my new wheel centerline should be 31 1/2"? Just want to make sure I get it right the first time. Also can some of you guys that did the No Limit subframe post up a few close-ups of how you put the two together.

Here's some pics to show the progress.
