Re: DLoE's Dropmembered 65 StepSiDe Build

Where did you get the sheet metal? And also, what did the mirrors belong to originally?

Thanks, Jon

Re: DLoE's Dropmembered 65 StepSiDe Build

I get all my metal parts at "The Truck Shop" in Orange CA. It's close to my house and the guys there are super helpful.. It's cheaper than alot of the other spots too. www.truckandcarshop.com

Re: DLoE's Dropmembered 65 StepSiDe Build

welded in the hole where the radio used to be, made a great spot for my manual air ride valves. Still need to grind it down and make it look pretty.. good enough for today.

Re: DLoE's Dropmembered 65 StepSiDe Build

well i tried to drop my motor in today but looks like i will have to make or have some one make motor mounts for me. when i get the motor close, the oil pan sits on the rack, also the passenger side of the 292 has a different configuration than the 250. The fuel filter and motor mount are switched.
