Thanks! Lots of interest, but still no buyers yet. So, I'm still working on it. I got the gas pedal and throttle cable mounted and connected. I used Rockcrwln's pedal bracket, factory 71/72 CST pedal and LOKAR cables and fittings. Next I'm going to finish mounting the front Accuair level sensors and then move onto the rear ones.

So, you're giving us new updates with old pictures, huh? You've probably been done and driving this truck for months. :lol:

:lol:, I wish. Here is another update. Got the rear level sensors mounted. I'm waiting on some metal pieces from the machine shop and then I will work on finishing the raised bed floor and mounting the Accuair air tank and compressor. I have to mention that I'm extremely impressed with how all of the Accuair parts are packaged. Everything has a picture in the package showing what to use it for! It really simplifies the assembly.

When are you sending a deposit? ;)


Got a little more done last night. Mounted the FPR and put some adel clamps on the fuel line. Just need to get it on blocks to finish the rest under the cab. I also notched one of the rear braces for drive shaft clearance when it's laid out. I mounted the rear bumper also just to see how low it will be when laid out. I need to do some more work on the bed and mounting structure this weekend. Pushing forward....

You do realize that with every update the truck gets more expensive right? You might get a deal if you buy it now! :lol:

Yes I know. But I do not have the time to finish it and picking up a project in the middle of completion I am afraid I would spend a lot of time sorting through everything.

Made a little more progress on the bed this weekend. I clearanced the inner bed sides a little more so I can air it up and down with out any rubbing. I also started laying out the inner bed frame structure that will hold the wood floor. I'm still trying to decide how I want to do the wood floor. Was thinking just some rough cut planks without any metal strips. Thoughts, suggestions and/or pictures greatly appreciated :D.

Personally,... I like the oem style bed wood, in its original dimensions, for the factory look, only at a raised height.

Interested in what tires these are in this post.? I've read all your build threads (a couple of times.!) but can't find tire info now that I'm curious....
