Great progress on the truck, I'm glad to see it moving along again. The rust on it is epic, I don't honk I've ever seen axle tubes rusted to that degree. I was wondering if the center section is still good, can't new tubes be welded in? I know that can be done on some diffs I'm just not sure about the 12 bolt.

Hey Richard, thanks for checking the thread.

This have slowed a bit whilst I'm saving and searching for parts.

Regarding the diff, the centre section was also not worth saving. I wasn't going to trust new axle tubes being welded to it. Unfortunately, I'll need to replace the whole thing

Just came across this thread. Hope all is going well with the build. Can't wait to see the finished product. Can't imagine the work,frustration,time and money that has gone into this build.

Any progress over that last year? I gotta say you have some very impressive metal working skills, I didn't think there was any hope for that cab. It is still bazaar seeing the steering wheel on that side of the cab
