Frame went off to blasting, 3 coats of chassis saver sprayed on the frame and diffs/suspension (stuff sprays nice) and has been sitting for a week in the booth drying while I cleaned and wire wheeled the underside of the cab, 3 coats of chassis saver, then 3 coats of raptor liner (bed liner). Alternator bracket done, and had the alternator checked out before final mount...glad I did cause she was toast. Bought a brand new rebuild...
Been working on filling in the cab light holes and CB antenna holes in the roof along with heat shrinking the roof skin/dents, and shaving drip rails, welding up the roof seams, ground down the wind shield seam (showing signs of rust), and it got 2 coats of chassis saver as well. As well I drilled all the holes into the inner headliner skin and pillars, filled with spray foam...and roof is good and solid now along with some good sound deadening qualities.
Then my air dryer went to hell in a hand basket and internally rotted out I guess, destroying my filter and regulator. So working on redoing my air system now which has been taking up all the shop time. It needed done, so revamping a few things I was not happy with the first time around.
Ordered up a 5 gallon pail of spray on sound suppression liner. Found a source for the stuff that Audi and BMW use on their vehicles so should be as good as lizard skin I would hope, maybe even better. Definitely a hell of alot cheaper!
Got some pics.....more when I get time.
