Re: 5 speed conversion with pics

I tested the clutch pedal - all works as intended so far. I will know more once the clutch is hooked up. I don't anticipate any problems since it looks pretty straightforward. Next I will be fitting the transmission and engine back into the truck to see where the crossmember and hole for the shifter need to be. I have gotten a little sidetracked though with the immense level of corrosion on my radiator core support. As you can see, the only thing holding the core support to the truck was the fenders! It is supposed to be the other way around! Luckily I have a TIG and plenty of will to rebuild it. I am cheap so I don't want to spend $300 to get one from LMC. If I fail in my repair (not likely) I will buy it. I also have some repairs to do on the cab that I wasn't expecting.
