Still working on the cross member, had it taken out, cut, welded, and did the grinding in three days. Now thats with working a full time job and side jobs, to fund this truck. Put the first coat of paint on today, yes rattle canned it. Im going Saturday to see what i can scalp from the 1986 parts truck my buddy found for me. He brought me the brakes today. Its missing the calipers, they were used as cores on another project. Im picking up the power steering parts tomarrow. Then I'm headed to the junk yard to hopefully collect any additional parts. I know i have to track down a power steering pump bracket, one that mounts on the drivers side of the motor, and brake booster.
I plan on bolting the motor together this weekend too. The long block has been sitting there a week now. But this cross member project has taken over my life. But it should be bolted in Saturday.
Still have so many projects going on this truck. Feeling overwelmed. I was hoping to have this project done by next Friday. Now reality has set in and theres no way. With working a full time job, theres no way to tear apart your truck, and rebuild almost every part of it in 30 days.
