Well, I didn't really get anything done to the truck tonight but I did make progress. The I6 is GONE!! Thanks to Track70's Dad for giving it a second chance! So with that gone I was able to get the cab stowed in the garage so my queen can park her inside... Happy wife, happy life. ;) I also received my CPP Big Brake kit from Tommy at TnT-MotorSports (ksbrktracer).
Attachment 1332402 Attachment 1332403 So maybe tomorrow night I can get at that notch.:ito: |

Also, I would tack weld in some braces in the door opening before you even cut anything loose. On mine I just took a bunch of measurements and it worked out okay. I also have a few extra cabs laying around that I can measure for reference, which is handy. In hindsight, I would have spent more time fitting my doors. I had a few issues with the rockers and the door gaps that really should have been addressed before I finished bodywork. I ended up adjusting my passenger side door up after the truck was assembled. What a pain! I didn't even know the door was hitting the rocker until it started scuffing the clear coat. For reference HERE is where I tried to fit up my driver side door for the final time. For the record, I also only used GM panels, no aftermarket stuff. This tells us back in the day GM had pretty loose tolerance for fit up of our trucks. I fit the passenger side too, I just didn't notice the door was contacting the rocker until it was shiny :( Sorry for the novel but just know this, I learned a ton about what not to do. I will help you any way I can when you go to making sparks. :chevy: |
