Great looking build you've got here.

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
I have been strongly debating getting a set of those bearclaws. How hard were they to install and get everything lined up? Did they come with that panel insert or did you make that? Looks really good.

That dash looks awesome! That's also awesome that the air unit is totally invisible! Great work!

Ok guys and gals,A little progress here---Christmas in January!! Got my Mod 5 wheels in ..........unbelievable polish......setup bed to get actual dimensions for narrowing rear....these pics are where truck would be aired out......also almost done with Nates x-member upgrade......I know its an upside down shot but i love how slick the dimensions of these frames are after the pieces from Nate totally change it!! More later when finished (I know Nate when U see this U will say "He changed the bar arrangement!!" Yes I did "tweak it" but I think U will like the finished product)..Haven't installed trans crossmember yet..............jim

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
Very nice! Those wheels do have a super nice polish!!!
|
Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
Sweet.
What's the specs on the wheels and tires? Lots of dish,... so the backspacing must be pretty low. |
Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
20 x 12.....6" backspace........Schott's.....the centercap is so precision made I've had 2 people that couldn't find the line were cap meets wheel......tires are 315-35's............jim

Amazing... simply amazing!!!

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
Wheels look great.....
I had to go back and read the thread again because I noticed a tube configuration change in Nates X member. It looked braced differently than mine. Nice work! Did you determine that you cannot use 55-59 truck dashes for that awesome look? |

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
Thanks for the info.....Turned out really nice.
My kit came with poly trans mount bushings. Is the Delrin the new standard bushing? |
Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
Nice build so far...don't see how I missed this one

Ok guys----little update during halftime!! got 6.0 liter and 4l80 mounted in chassis...I'm a little concerned about height of tailshaft and drive shaft angle to carrier bearing....but got a call into Nate with pics to get his opinion...the engine has 3-4* drop in pics with frame level--really don't see why I can't run this oil pan also..has 1 1/2 " clearance about frame rail--Only about 1" lower than dropmember..........Cab comes back tomorrow and I will see how it all fits late this week............back to the game.........Madonna (ugh!) I guess for 53 she's not bad..............jim
