The preheater hose is a good idea.

Is there any seals that hang down off the inner fender next to the frame rail? I didn't take good pics during teardown. Thanks

Decided to start welding on the fenders. They are a lot easier than the bedsides.



I used a Lincoln 135 gas welder that Shannon brought over. It welded really nice.

Grinding the bulk of the weld with a 3M 1991 stone.

That looks good on the fenders. I did that to mine that last time it was painted. I thought that it really looked much better after it was done.

I wish I was home to work on mine, the weather back home has been in the 70's. I have been over in Austria and Italy since the 15th for work. It is about 10:40 am here and it is 3:40 am back home...

You're getting closer to completion.!!
