I'm jealous, those are high on my list of needs because I don't have seatbelts which means I can't take my son in the pickup which means it doesn't get driven.

You can have my seat belts from my truck. PM if you want them.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

Picked up motor mounts and paint for engine today.

Going to bolt in drive train this weekend. Then, it's on to gas tank, flatbed and patch panels.

I can finally feel it coming together!

what tool for the puller did you replace with. i have the harbor frieght stud welder and it seems to onley work with the big studs

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

What we did was go to a hock shop and buy a heavy duty made in the USA vicegrip and put it on the slide hammer. then migged welded it secure. worked great.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

I bought a harbor freight stud gun and the studs you get there didn't work good for me. I had read to get some studs from a body supply place. I Did and work so much better than harbor freights.

Seats look great, I have the same set with power! I hope your not a tall person though, they will not go back far enough for taller people! I'm only 5'-3" so they work great for me!

Finished pulling my 556 HP factory Supercharged LSA and 6 speed automatic for my project Low and Go....So far so Good

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

Well the picture didn't load so I wll try again....

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

Trial fit for the seats to see if I'd fit. I'm 6'5" and a little less room than the stock seat but not bad. I can see a tilt wheel in my future.

Lol see I told you, u must be sitting straight up. If u get a custom steering wheel, 13" it will help too! My boss is 6' and his truck came with these seats....
"I just sold him my OEM bench seat" because of this space issue! Be sure you can live with them before you mount-um, just saying...

Wicked stripe.......you did a great job on that

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

I just went for a test ride before I mount the front bolts. I can see a tilt wheel in my future and it wasn't that bad. Was very comfy.

Today I picked up and installed the new master cylinder, bought and installed a tow hook rated at 10,000 pounds, installed 3/8" eye bolts in the stake pockets for tie downs and started cleaning up the step bumper I got for it.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

Got my new CPP 4" drop coils. Much nicer ride than stock springs. http://i1280.photobucket.com/albums/...ps1cf9e7be.jpg

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

I think the ones I had were from a heavy half ton from a 72. Sure rides much better now.

CPP sent me a set of those "wire gauge" springs for my suburban-- I was like "that $hit ain't gonna work!"

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

Painted the Jeep rear coil springs to prepare to install them, stripped the interior and prepped it for sound deadner(once it arrives) and wrapped the bench seat! Attachment 1061840

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

The old springs look like they were heated up to me, for the old school drop

I got to use my new stud welder today.

Modded the slide hammer to start with:

Then I took out all the dents in the cab.

This one had at least an inch of bondo:

This is a shot downward to show how flat it came out. No dolly work at all just pulling on the studs:

Took 13 pins strategically located.

This tool is one of the best things I have EVER purchased.
