Looking forward to see how you do the trailing arm setup. Really curious to see how much more work it is, if any than what I did.

In for the build. You are making quick work of that frame. Looking forward to seeing it back on the ground!

Thanks hewittca. Hopefully in the new few weeks I can have it rolling around again. I will pull it apart later to have the chassis powder coated, so I don't need to worry about any of that stuff now.

"Hang on, gonna be a wild ride".


Truth be told this is the part of the builds I love the most.

You and me both Paul. I am not etched in stone on anything yet. I will start looking more serious at that end of the chassis as soon as I get the back side of the crossmember bolted, welded, and plated back together. My plan is to then tackle the rear suspension, Sit the cab back in place bolted tightly. Then I can start making measurements on the front section of frame as to what stays and what goes.
