Re: '59 4x4 Build

good forward motion. keep plugging away and you will be done before you know it.
since it is a 4x4 I would recommend to go back and reshape the brake line over the rear axle so it doesn't get snagged by a random stick or whatever. on 4x4 trucks I usually try to keep the brake line close to the shape of the diff cover and sort of kept tied down right on the outer edge of the cover. that means anything you drive over that could snag the brake line doesn't get a chance because the diff housing pushes the brush or whatever out of the way first, like a shield. when backing up it works sort of the same. that way the only thing out in the open is the flex line from the frame down and there is no hiding that.
