ask all you want :)
fyi, I made it easy on myself and just took off the grill, core support and bumper, left the hood on and had tons of room. Don't know if my info will help, but I pretty much did 99% by myself and no helper. Good luck
I only have one question: how did you do with the A/C compressor, did you have to make some work on the chasis to make it work or what ??
no a/c
Update:
Truck is running like a champ. Took it to local cruise tonight. Idles great, stomp the pedal, smoke, haul ass. :)
I'll get a vid or two up when I can find a volunteer to hold the camera, lol
sweet :thumb: I have that problem too, can't find someone to handle the video camera or they want to do it with a digital stills camera and the video ends up looking terrible.
I only had to notch the frame a little, .5" x 2" and it was in front of all of the crossmembers.Quote:

Nice work.
I found your build thread on this site. lol Is your truck done at the body shop?
not done yet...my buddy said they started on it, told him to send a pic cause I did not believe him. No pics yet.lol
I'm not in a big hurry, maybe by years end, then I can get it home and put the trim and interior back in. I'll get some pics up when I get them.
Where are you getting all of your trim? I wanted too but i've already headed in the shaved direction. Please let me know when you get pics.
All the trim is in storage...took it off to get truck painted...
I didnt know if you have ever replaced any of it or not. I wasnt lucky enough to have good trim on mine. the owner left it all on, put heart beat of america stickers all over the truck then sprayed it maroon...... I wanted mine to look like yours does, but I think I'll be happy shaved. I will tell you, I'll never start with something this rough again. It's just way too much lol
