Tel me again why you are putting the master cylinder inside the truck.. >????

Re: Daverods 52
 

Because I did'nt want it on the firewall and I did'nt think I would have enough room to run my exhaust past it if I put it on the frame.:mm:

Cool tank

Re: Daverods 52
 

I need to buy a shifter for my 700r4. How do I know if I need a cable operated one? Or would ether kind work? Whats the difference between the two cable/mech?

Re: Daverods 52
 

Cable shifter are more flexible as to where you mount them,only require the the hole for the screws that mount them to the floor and a 3/8 hole for the cable can be mounted to flat or curbed floor, with littel space under the floor.
Shifter with rods are limited by the routing of the rods and space between floor / or tunal and tranmission , and need to be on the same side of the transmission as the shfter lever on the trans..

Thanks Bud.;) Guess I'll get a cable one that way I'll be able to move it a round alittle. I want to keep the bench seat I was kinda worried that the stick might hit the seat. Think I'll get the 32" Lokar.:uhmk:

Re: Daverods 52
 

Just make sure you don't make the cable bend too much. They tend to break. At least they did on the B&M did on my Belair. :uhmk:

Re: Daverods 52

Re: Daverods 52
 

You are building an awesome '52 here...Keep up the great job. You have gotten a lot accomplished....keep it up in 2012!

Re: Daverods 52
 

:mm: Two days to get this far. Started off with no plan that was part of the problem. After lots of welding and grinding and cutting. Ended up with this.:ito: First plan forgot about the pumkin moving up and down. After making room for the pumkin the second failed plan forgot to leave room for the shocks. After starting over, we're going with the 3rd plan. Still subject to change.

Re: Daverods 52
 

Here's one I did. Just an idea.
