Got the accessory drive situation figured out. All this discussion and contemplating when the solution is simple. Just move the radiator forward duh!!! My aluminum radiator mounts to the stock core support I grinded the aluminum mounting tabs off and will attempt to re weld them back to the radiator. I have a tig welder but have never welded aluminum. Got some alimunum scrap and filler rod and will practice before I make my attempt. That will give me a couple extra inches required to run the truck accessories. Got the mini Sanden bracket from ict billet thanks for the video Curt from TN! The truck alternator and power steering accessories fit without cutting into the frame. I'm pretty happy with how everything is looking so far and will be finishing the frame welding soon. My goal is to have frame and some other parts to powder coat by the end of the month. Mounted the wheels to check stance everything looks good. Drop down battery is going to be tight between the tank and roll pan. I will need some bed components before I mount since I want to tuck it up as high as possible.
