Re: 53 Surburban "Family Truckster"
Now onto the rear. Once you have located the locator hole in the front, you use this same hole and measure back to locate the placement of the rear notch...I confirmed one of my initial concerns. The rear body mounts interfere with the rear notch. I removed the mounts for now. They will be easy to reattach. Since this is a suburban that I'm building I bet PB didn't realize this would be an issue since they mocked up to truck frames. This is something that I took pictures of and I will be communicating back to them.
I cleaned both frame rails with a wire wheel, to make slipping on the rear rails easier. I later determined that I need to clearance the frame for the welded nuts on the inside of the notch. More thought/planning is needed here. I will figure it out.
Again. I'm like the challenge of figuring this out.
