Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
Great painting! Your garage looks pretty dang nice. Were you able to get it finished before snow flew?

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
No I didn't get it done. I finished the front and one side then it got to cold the siding was just snapping when I tryed to cut it... Gives me something to do once spring time comes... I'm hoping to have it closed up by summer and hopefully paint the truck in it before I move out of the shop... Nice big paint booth lol

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
I just came across your build and I cant wait to see it done. I will definitely be following your build. I am also doing a CC SRW Cummins conversion using a 24 valve Cummins, 4L80e and a NP205.

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
Got my new tie rod assembly and steering shock, also my tailgate, handle, rods n latches showed up... Tailgate wouldn't close the stamped body line is stamped to low so here we go... Cut time I'm just going to turn the body line inside out... I fitted two designs of factory tailgates and they both worked but the new one didn't...

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
Nice work. That is weird about that one being wrong. Makes you wonder how many others are wrong along with that one?

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
Yeah I was confused I thought that line was supposed to sit just above the bed floor but it sits about 3/8 of an inch to low...

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
Got a few other odds n ends done got the tail gate cut n fixed so it will close now as well as all sanded down... Hoods sanded down got my draw straw put in the fuel tank. I also built a dolly for the cab just have a little finishing up to do on it and off the frame once again for the last time... When I get some free time I'm going to get my last prime on the entire truck... It's time everything will be ready for paint except the tail gate and hood which both need high solids and a good blocking...

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
Been a while since I've had an update on my truck... Currently I'm the process of finishing up the last bits of my garage and slowly getting things moved over... Hoping by mid next month to be able to get back at the truck. Going to give the body it's last prime before I move the truck home keep my garage clean for now lol.

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
All my primers are ppg products and the sealer base and clear are all house of kolor... It has bed liner on the fire wall it's proform I've always liked how it lays out I thin it out with acitone so it's not quite so rough... I did it More for the sound as I want minimal engine noise and road noise in the cab. I want it as quiet as a newer vehicle

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
Been a while since I've done anything I'm now moved out of my shop and everything is home ... I managed the spray the door jams before I moved... Got the doors hung back on door weather strip fitted damn it's tight... Also ordered a bunch of new hardware for hinges and latest new strikers .. Got
My hood and tailgate all blocked down and touched up just have to get em over to a buddies booth and reprime them then everything just needs a sand n it's ready for some colour... Also started pulling a few wires just waiting for some power and ground distribution blocks to put in the cab. Also been working on brooding benches and shelving for the garage and have to get a few flashings bent up for the windows and doors.

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
Still alive around here. Havnt had a whole lot of ambition to work on it lately.
I have got most of the truck sanded and ready for paint last few spots that needed minor attention are done. just have to get my butt in gear and get the rockers, window edges, front bed panel, and the small spot between the doors on the drivers side. Also finished up my second bench in the garage. Just have to build some more permanent shelving some day.
