Re: 48 Burb, bagged, 5.3, 20 year wait
The pesky fuel leak in the '56 Chevy turned out to be the screws holding the sending unit in. Some rubber gasket on the back of the screw heads seems to have fixed it. That took way longer than planned to fix so haven't had any time on the 'Burb for more than a week.
There was a thread on here (can't find it now) where someone was asking the difference between an AD Suburban and 1/2 ton truck frame. The only difference I've noticed (aside from the fuel tank straps) between the Suburban frame and the truck frame I have for this project is the second and third from front body mounts. Of course the truck doesn't have the third body mount. The fourth and fifth body mounts are simply a hole on top of the frame on the Suburban and the truck has the same holes.
Here are a couple pic's of the second and third mount.
