I'm planning on keeping the pictures coming. What I'm doing now is test fitting the mechanicals in the frame. The frame I acquired had some cross members missing so swapping them from the long bed donor frame. Next is the transfer case.
Once everything is fit I will remove the engine and transfer case and take the frame over to Ballard Forge and have them rivet the mounts in place and rivet any parts that were bolted to the frame. I have several hangers that were bolted in place prior to my ownership of the frame and all are loose to some degree.
