Ordered Vintage Air system, but saying it will be at least 4-6 weeks before delivered as they are so far behind. Need compressor so can make motor bracket for it, but did get bracket made & moved alternator to driver side of motor.
To the point where not much else can do to frame, so went for setting cab on. First cut out the floor & welded on nuts for high hump tunnel, painted the firewall satin black and set new Energy Suspension bushings all around.
When set the cab, floor board behind high hump was hitting on transfer. This was not even close to an issue with this combo in the Blazer, so not sure as to why in this truck. Motor/trans/xfer & rear pinion are at angles the y need to be, so just did a little more cutting on floor. It will all be under the seat & carpet anyway so not a big concern.
Hung door, set radiator support & front fender so get a clearer idea of cab shimming that will be needed ... yeah it's got to have some
Sooo much more work to be done, but it is encouraging to get a glimpse of it looking like a truck again!
AND NONE OF THIS WOULD BE POSSIBLE WITH OUT SUCH A TALENTED HUSBAND, WITH SO MUCH PATIENCE TO PUT UP WITH ME!
