Alrighty, here's the pics....
Mockup cab with bare block and empty TH400 case in place, everything clears, lots of room behind the engine!
Mid plate mount, and engine/trans to firewall/floor hump clearance
Gotta show off the aluminum welds!
Rear suspension and Eaton HO72 with disc brakes and a Detroit/No-Spin inside
Extended frame and shackle hangers, still need to plate the rectangular tube between the shackle hangers and the tube so the surface is flush with the side of the frame.
Showing off some more welding, nice beads all the way around the rectangular tube
More of welds, also note the fish mouthed frame, less likely to crack and with a longer weld, stronger overall.
They didn't come this pimped out from the factory! Awesome paint scheme (flat black and Chevy orange), and a Detroit and discs, doesn't get any better than that!
And I figured you guys might like to see this, the dash that is in my rusted out mock up cab, its probably the best dash in one of these trucks I have ever seen, totally unmolested condition with no hacked up radio holes and extra holes for other stuff. Rare find for sure!
