Re: progress pics

nice looking project.

Got any install pics of that later model column? How hard was it. I had planned on that originally but came up with a 72 tilt.

no install pics, camera batteries were dead that day. it was tougher to install than i thought it would be , had to do alot more cutting to the brake/clutch bracket than i thought and its was still a really tight fit. had to move the ignition switch, and make a cover for the rods from ignition and blinker switches to keep them from getting jammed up. i will have to pull the column back out to paint so ill see if i can get some more pics then.

thanks for all the comments, will keep this thread updated. let me know if you guys have any questions on what ive done.

yes, want to still be able to use the bed and dont really like the look of a tank in the bed so i got the long skinny tank. also plan on mounting the compressor and valves back there on the sides of the tank and building a box around them with flip up lid for access. going to use the sound deadner inside those boxes and carpet the outside so hopefully i wont have too much noise. not planning on hopping the truck around much anyway, just drop it when i park and bring it back up to ride height. im at the point now that i have all of my parts here , took the next 5 days off work so im going to try and get as much done as i can. have been working on it every min after i get home from work and eat for the past 2 weeks but dont feel like ive accomplished alot. ill keep snapping pics as i go so ill keep em coming.
