Re: 51' 3100 build in PA New to Site

Aug-22 weekend.

This weekend was pretty good. Finally got the clutch bled, wow took me hours. Got MC bled but need to bleed brake lines yet. I did a lot of finishing touch work to several things such as cab work, floor board work and bracing the clutch and brake better since it really flexes the firewall. So I built a brace that connects the clutch to brake and from the brake to the steering column. Really made a difference.

Got the floor (first have) done. Need more insulation and then some carpet.
Began moching up my EZ wiring harness. I think it will work out well, the fuse panel should mount on the drivers side kick panel. Just missing the stock Ebrake
release and pedal (yes I am using the original set up there) other than that should hit the wiring hard next weekend.

Also put in drivers side window - Yes vent has to come out and I hate those stock "clutch" head screws.

Finally got a matching set of gauges and I am very happy with them. I should be able to get them all to work, speedo will be last on the list. Who
cares how fast we go anyway. Got a slew of parts from classictrucks and they are by far the best IMO.

Lastly been tinkering with my 54' dump truck. I have the windshield I gotta put in yet.
