Kents 62 knock out knee knocker
I'm posting this for my pops. What started out as a "flip truck" and a "rat build" took a quick turn. Having fallen in love with these ugly trucks It wasn't as easy to let go of. He acquired the truck in a trade and decided to build it for a fast flip. He decided to fix the rust and 200 hours later it has all new everything.

Re: Kents 62 knock out knee knocker
The frame matched the cab pretty well. It was pretty nasty so it was sent out for blasting and then base and cleared

Re: Kents 62 knock out knee knocker
What year is the frame? A 62 should've had the torsion bar front and "X frame"
And yours looks like a 63-66 frame Wade |

Re: Kents 62 knock out knee knocker
Ya we switched over to a 66 frame. the X is just too much of a pain in the ass.
I will grab a few more piks of the gas tank install here in a bit.

Re: Kents 62 knock out knee knocker
the rear of the frame was boxed in. He made a front mount with a piece of angle. then bent his lower mounts to set it to the depth that would hide it the most and keep it safe. Then bent some straps to hold it down from the top. used some anti vibe rubber strips all around it to keep it quiet and firmly in place.

Re: Kents 62 knock out knee knocker
I am not as familiar with these years and I was told the 60-62 cabs were specific to those frames as far as cab and bed mounts. If that is true what did you have to do to make it all work on the 66 frame? I've got a 61 is the reason for my curiousity.
Thank you, Wade |

Re: Kents 62 knock out knee knocker
Everything was the same except the front mounts. on this one he just drilled out a new hole and used new mounting hardware to fab up a new mount. the inner brace runs over the 66 frame in the same area. really easy.

Re: Kents 62 knock out knee knocker
The rear bed crossmember and the crossills are also different since the '60-'62 frame is wider in the rear. However they can be modified to work with the '63+ frames.

Re: Kents 62 knock out knee knocker
OK .. So stupid question?
"IF" you ever have to remove the tank,,, will you need to remove the bed first? From the Images it looks like the lower supports are welded to the frame?? Or am I just to old to see right? |
