Re: Ultra Family and Hauler Mobile

No big progress to report on this. We did get the rear end figured out. Dang pinion bearings are different on the inners from old body style to super duty. Also my rear calipers were deteriating and the pistons were coming apart. So it got new calipers and pads in the rear. The aluminum diff cover is on and new fluid and a new pinion seal are in. The fuel tank is back in and the fuel lines are hooked up from the tank to under the driver's seat area. The shift cable for the trans is installed and hooked up. Intercooler tubes are made, just need to finish grind them and weld one bead on another. I got a new A/C comp, but have to figure out the best way to complete the A/C lines. I need to rebuild the turbo, build the throttle linkage set up, finish running the fuel lines, and mount a lift pump. Then I should be able to add fluids and start it. It isn't too far off really.
