Just a quick update,I got the new wheels on the rear,also fininished the front control arms and was able to air up the front bags.I set the motor and trans in,I have some clearance issues with the rack but that is not surprising.I think I will get the cab installed then I can get the motor and trans mounts made.I also finished the rear panhard bar.I still have to get R & P attached to the spindles.I think once i get the engine mounts made I will start on the headers and exhaust.Thanks for looking.Attachment 925445

You get down to business. I look forward to watching your build.

Re: SANFORD build thread
Looks like you need the small balancer and a small pulley.... scot douglas had to do the same thing when he used a rack .. should be some pics here somewhere...
|
Re: SANFORD build thread
Awesome looking truck that you have and had.
|
Re: SANFORD build thread
Thanks guys,awbrown I saw in that build that he used the smaller balancer but i figure since I am building headers and exhaust any way I will just raise the engine a little and fit it where it fits best.Thanks for looking.

Re: SANFORD build thread
Nice Job...Is your rack power or manual? I'll be watching this one!
|
Re: SANFORD build thread
dbomb53 it is a mustangII or t-bird power rack from advance auto.It was around a$100 bucks.Your truck is cool as well,Thanks for looking.

Re: SANFORD build thread
Nice work! Keep it up!:metal::metal::metal:
Also are you making the headers ?...Fender-wells???? |
Re: SANFORD build thread
Updates coming soon,Hardwaa I thought I would build my headers but I have a set that I will make work,They will be under the truck and full exhaust with turndowns just in front of the rear bumper.Thanks.

Got a few updates,pretty much have the rack finished except for the steering shaft,pics show the outer tie-rod ends.I will do final adjustments when I do the front end alignment.also got the motor and trans set where I want it and made a trans mount.Attachment 934272

I had to move the engine to the front motor mount holes and raise it about 1 1/2 to clear the rack.I think I will modify the bottom of these headers so I can raise them where they wont hang lower than the frame rails.I usually have around 20 hours in building a set of mild steel headers,so I will clean these up and use them.Attachment 934277

I love this truck!
I do have a question. It appears your rack is offset to the drivers side. Won't this affect bumpsteer? (I'm no expert,.... I'm just trying to understand) Maybe it's just an optical illusion,... |
Re: SANFORD build thread
way cool!!!
