Re: 75 Dually build

Nice to hear you're getting the vibration removed in it. To add to the operating angles, if you don't have enough operating angle on the u joints, they can prematurely fail as well. I've had that same battle with newer seat mounts. They are always to high it seems. Making new frames/mounts is what I have done too. Definitely faster. Good luck getting them done in time!

We are going to take our time driving to the show this year. I just don't want to run into any issues.

The seats are just about done! I will have them finished tonight, and hopefully painted and ready to be finally installed for the last time.

Wait until you see the center console, and the speaker door pods we are making. They are going to be really nice!
