I called the drive line shop (Ron's driveline in Gainesville) Steve was super nice and helpfull. He lives close to my work and will bring home a yoke and U joint tonight and I will pick it up in the AM. He told me to slide the yoke in til it bottoms and back it out 3/4" and measure center of cap to center of cap. |

I measured the driveshaft like the shop told me and it came to 59" to the CL of the caps.
Also applied the peel and seal. Boy, that stuff is sticky. Better make sure it doesn't conatct something you don't wantit to, because it's not coming back up in one piece. I haven't done around the passenger side firewall yet. I have to see where my AC and heater lines will be. Also got the majority of the carpet done. Some might say it is too soon and it might be. It will be more comfortable to lay on when I'm under the dash. |
Re: Project Vitamin C-10
What are you going to use on the firewall under the dash?

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Quick question, I'm starting to run wire and I'm at the brake light switch. I used a ohm meter to check the switch. It's got constant continuity unless it is depressed. That is opposite of what I think it should be. I think it should get continuity when depressed so it energizes the brake light. Am I smoking crack?
EDIT: I think I'm wrong :dohh: I was thinking wrong as usual. ;) |

As mentioned before the wiring has begun. At first it was a little overwhelming with a hand full of wires. Once you break it down to one wire at a time it's not too bad.............yet. Got the steering column done in the cab and I'm almost done with the ignition in the cab. Loosely running things as I go and will secure everything last. |

A switch or relay is referred to as having contacts normally open or normally closed. This is the contact position of the switch or relay ,UN-installed and no interference with the operating mechanism, in the at rest position . Some switch's and relays can also be a double pole or triple pole with one set being open and one set being closed. When installed the brake pedal arm holds the contacts open, until you press on the brake allowing the contacts to close and the light to come on. |

I now have two hoods. I just picked up a hood nice on the big open surface across the top, but needs some help around the inner supports. My hood is pretty banged up all across the top but is rust free. So between your post and Bugeye's thread, I think I can make one really nice hood. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=415609 |

I'm back after being without power for 26 hours due to a EF1 tornado that was spawned from tropical storm Lee. It had a 24 mile track and passed within a mile from the house. We didn't have any damage at the house, but 400 other homes had damage or were destroyed. Things are getting back to normal. I did get 2 light coats sprayed yesterday. It was looking very nice until it started drying. it sunk in some, but still looks 100% better than before. I have to get another quart and lightly sand and spray again. I also pick up my drive shaft tomorrow. |
Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Glad you are okay!!!!!
Alan you are an inspiration for all of us to continue on our projects. I wish mine was finished but I realize that we are having too much fun driving it now to pull it off the road ... Remember---- no hurricanes in Montana!!!!! |
Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Yeah, glad your OK. Close call huh?

The first pic shows a close call. I installed the wiper motor and realized it will be close to the radio, thinking the radio might not fit. It does clear, not by much. Drive shaft is in for a test fit. I will be removing it to paint it later. Also installed the 175 amp maxi fuse. This should be a safe place and out of the way. The wiring is not secured yet. Once I get everything inplace and working. I'll try to clean it up some. It won't be as nice as I would like it, but I'll do my best. ;) |
Re: Project Vitamin C-10
The truck is coming along great, keep it up, I love the routing of the wiring so far, nice and clean!

I cracked open another bag of wires tonight (late) and studied the diagrams for a few minutes. Bubba or any other elctrical guru stayed tuned. I will study them tomorrow and see if I can figure it out. No matter if I figure it or not I will post pics of the schematic and my crazy idea of how I think i should do it. Then get graded. :sexy: My problem area is the fan relay and all related parts. |
Re: Project Vitamin C-10
tuned in!!! I wish I was closer .... I'd come over and help!!!:chevy:

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Yeah me too, between all of us, we can really f*ck it up. :haha: :haha:
