Re: AD Truck Project
 

Looks like I need to make some room out in the shed and bring a motor stand home.

I looked out in the garage, and I did not dream. I did tack the crossmember on lol.

I bolted a fender and the core support on to get an idea where the suspension would set in the fender. The lower arm is sorta on, as well as he spindle. I just set the rotor on to look at it. I would get a pic from farther back but that require tearing down a wall of my garage. lol

With this crossmember the front will set a bit higher. One neat thing about that, is I will not have to cut the inner fender. At most I would just need to fill the hole where the stock steering box would have been.

I have a small parts update. Scott's Hotrods had bags on sale, so I ordered some ss6's after talking to Jon. Slowly but surely... lol.

Next on the buy list are 5 on 4 3/4 pattern rotors from Parr, since it is about 10 minutes away, and I need the cross shaft bolts for the upper control arms.

Sweet!

Re: AD Truck Project
 

I really need to post an update with some meat to it.

Hey man progress is progress!

A few more pieces to the puzzle.

Re: AD Truck Project
 

I have been thinking this afternoon and I think I will just use the 5on5 rotors for mock up purposes and so I can hopefully make the front end mobile in the next few months.

Re: AD Truck Project
 

AHH nothing like a late Christmas.. :metal:

Re: AD Truck Project
 

I could not pass up the price. Maybe I can trade a kidney for a 4 link?

Re: AD Truck Project
 

Sweet! :metal:

Re: AD Truck Project
 

Hey,
I have some 5X5 rotors for you if you want them. Still have the 305 heads/block if you want them too. Let me know.

Re: AD Truck Project
 

I have some 5on5 rotors already. I tried to find a rearend narrow enough to do 5on5 on the back without redrilling but no luck.

Ive got a motor to get from Scott too. I just have no way of unloading it after I get home.

Re: AD Truck Project
 

I have some portable a-frames you could use. It would be a little drive for you to return them. Let me know.

Re: AD Truck Project
 

Nothing new to really report on my project. A few weeks ago I did work with some clr, water, and scotch brite and cleaned up some surface rust on the driver side door and on the hood. Since we have had snow lately, here is a pic of my 4 door snow plow.

I was just wondering how your crew was doing in the white stuff.

Re: AD Truck Project
 

Nice! :metal:

Re: AD Truck Project
 

It has been doing better than many stock height trucks and suv's I have seen.

I just got back from rib crib.

Re: AD Truck Project
 

Ice, nor snow, nor dark of night keeps me from bbq. :metal:

Re: AD Truck Project
 

I bet you were really pushing some snow in your crew. Glad to here you were able to get around though. another inch here at the house this eve.

Re: AD Truck Project
 

Yeah, it was pushing quite a bit. Tuesday and Wednesday I worked from home, so I did not have to mess with it.

Re: AD Truck Project
 

:lol: nice! :metal:

Re: AD Truck Project
 

Did you get new wheels on the crew? I didn't remember those being on there.
