Thanks. I can't wait to drop the engine & trans in but want to finish running the brake lines first.

I can only imagine how much easier it is to work on stuff like the engine and brake lines with the cab off.
I have a nice creeper, but I dont love it that much...
I bet you are looking forward to getting some stuff done this winter !!  |
It is much easier, especially for a fat, old, crippled up mess like me. It takes me longer to get up and down off of the creeper than doing the job at hand.
I'm really looking forward to doing some mechanical work again. The body work needed to take a rest for a bit.
I went down to the trans shop talked to them about transmissions yesterday and after hearing what they had to say, I ordered a HD 700r4 that will be built to more than handle my engine hp and torque and it will be ready by next weekend. I also ordered a CPP tubular center crossmember and mount. By spring I hope to have the chassis and drivetrain completed.
