Probably leave the grill that is in it for a while, i kind of like it since its all in one piece and is still pretty clean.

I dont know but i need some more hours :lol:

See the difference in the frame on where it bends, i think it will be better in the long run especially if i haul with it.

Will you be able to use the larger tank from the half ton truck frame? If possible I would recommend it. The small factory tank on the crewcab's really suck. It is probably the only thing I really hate about mine!

Sorry dude i forgot about measuring that for you. It will have to have a carrier bearing in it, i should have drive line in today so i can get it measured.

You can tell in the pic about where the carrier bearing is.



Here is some progress for ya ;)

Frame done and rear lowering kit on

http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/k...615_181816.jpg

http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/k...615_175254.jpg

Rear is a couple inches lower than the front and not sure if the 1 ton frame up front is a bit different and making it sit higher or what.. going to raise the rear up a bit but it is close to sitting level.

Got it in and measured and with it up and on stands it measured 92 1/2, i cant get under it to measure it how it is suppose to be :lol:


Did get the tank in it and started up again. It smoked the first time i started it a few weeks back and was beginning to worry me a bit but the tank in the frame had fresh fuel in it and it purred like a kitten for the 30 min i let it run and no problems. It is lower in the rear and im thinking about flipping the hangers to raise it a bit verses lowering the front more and not being able to haul anything..

scotts62 08-07-2012 08:49 PM

Re: My 93 Crewcab Build
 
Well i flipped the hangers and raised it up a bit and now it looks a lot better. The rear of the frame was tweaked i guess from the wreck on the donor frame so i put it on the trailer and used the winch to pull it down then heated a part that was bad and pulled it back to shape ;)

So ready to get it driving! :metal:

Put the harness in for the power windows and put the door panels on and got it all working. And even managed to get the head liner out so i can recover it.

What are you using to recover it with? Make sure you takes some pics. I'll be recovering my headliner too in the not too distant future.
