Major Progress Today!
Well I got my crossmember from ECE today and man it looks good. I also got my parts truck down to the frame so I can pull the suspension off for my 5 lug conversion, disc brakes and power steering conversion. I also got a 350 to serve as a mule motor while I build my drivetrain. My neighbor and I did lots of damage!!! He is a big guy and that really helped out with getting the cab off the frame...

Re: Major Progress Today!
Tearing them apart is the easy task but it also gave me a good idea on what I can do to make sure mine goes back together. Now I know I can pull the cab and paint all my parts off the truck. I also plan to install my suspension without the body in place.
