Once it is there, you have a very hard time getting it out. May take a pardon from the governor.

I spent a few hours shoving, measuring & finding the right compromise for engine & trans placement. Then I cleared all the obstructions (should have done this 1st) and test fit.
Tomorrow, if I get time, I'll be welding...

So what's the latest on your truck, Bam? Been kinda quiet on your thread lately.

Not much buddy, but I'm doing what I can when I find time. The latest thing I've done was buy some drilled and slotted rotors and painted the suspension parts and install them for the last time hopefully.lol

Hopefully the rain will subside enough to celebrate my new baby boy by bringing him home in the 59 fleetside.

Removed the clunking rear Dana 45 that I couldn't get parts for and installed the fresh rebuilt 10 bolt from a 2 wheel drive 68 chevy truck. Added dropped blocks, new ubolts, brake lines, shocks etc. Just need to bleed the brakes and burn in the saddles after setting the pinion in the morning. Moved to the front enda after lunch. Pulled the stock axle and installed a 4.5 inch dropped Sids axle with new steering parts incl. New style tie rods. Have the tapered bearings kit and all new brake parts to install tomorrow morning. Should be driving it to lunch! Next weeked is the motor swap and 700r4 conversion whoo hoooo!
