thanks for the kind words!
bartman i say go for it. im 6' and i still have space in these trucks. maybe that extra 3" makes a difference...
some progress, the rear end we decided to swap out. so new 4-link brackets, air bag and panhard bar brackets need to be welded, thanks Welder Series!
got the rear end installed with a few welds, more welds later when we remove it for paint...
i went under the cab and began trans cross member. the front motor mounts are installed. also checked space for under cab master cylinder with booster.
we bolted on front fenders n rad support for better mock up. removed inner rear fender brace so that the 6.70s would fit when all down.
i think tomorrow i can wrap up trans cross member. measure driveshaft length so it can be made and put cab on final place while checking all other sheet metal so that running boards meet the floor.
