Re: 83/84 swb stepside long time build
Engine and tranny all painted. Getting the converter back on Monday then will bolt them all together and put on frame with new mounts from Porterbuilt. Then I can get the cab out of storage and see how much I'm going to have and cut out of the floor.

Re: 83/84 swb stepside long time build
Got the engine and tranny on the frame.Leveled the truck front to back off the cab mounts. Then put engine tranny at the recommended down 5 degrees. The front of the oil pan almost touches the rack and pinion. The rear of tranny is sitting pretty high up. Ended up mounting the tranny bar just under the top of the frame. Any know id that sounds about right?
