Re: Dumptruck Dolly
Worked on the motor some more. The headers came from my C10 but hung too low, so I get to put the Doug Thorley’s on Dolly...hope they clear everything. I am waiting on a water pump and a thermostat housing that clears the oil filler.

Re: Dumptruck Dolly
Great Progress.
I just noticed / You really like those Extended T wing & Y wing hold downs. I will share a trick I learned. Once you get the Engine (Broke in) / (Warm-Up) and (adjusted). It is a good idea to put a Touch of silicone on the inside of those T-Wings. So the next time you raise the hood they will be there. .

Re: Dumptruck Dolly
Ordered new flywheel, clutch, pressure plate, (with throw out bearing) from my local parts retailer, but they included the wrong throw out bearing...have to wait a bit.

Re: Dumptruck Dolly
We have lift off today...I’ll be able to clean the frame and paint it, and then drop the drivetrain in all at once.

Re: Dumptruck Dolly
I found a pair of old skool cool pipes that I think I’ll add to the exhaust.
Also ordered and received some Warn lockouts. |

Re: Dumptruck Dolly
Got back to the frame...found a common spot on both the 3/4 and 1 ton frames. Measurement was made from the 3/4 ton and transferred to Dolly’s frame. The 2 1/8 “ location is the front bolt hole for the V8 crossmember.

Re: Dumptruck Dolly
I got rid of the 2wd driveshaft and the 6 cylinder exhaust and cleaned/painted under the cab. Next time I’ll get rid of the transmission crossmember that’s used with the 292.
