after first rain storm install a drain tube

kevhill85 · 10-07-2004, 08:13 PM

me3 · 10-08-2004, 05:49 PM

bottom needs to be open to drain water or at least a small hole at the top

*1972C10* · 10-08-2004, 06:29 PM

On the bottom weld a 1/4 pipe nipple or somethign similar and hook a drain hose to it

68LSS1 · 10-10-2004, 07:49 PM

Done. Let me know if those work or you need more or a specific angle or something.

kevhill85 · 10-10-2004, 08:00 PM

thanks man . what size tubing was that u useed

68LSS1 · 10-10-2004, 08:05 PM

I didn't do it Ed @ Mothertruckers did. I was too scared. After factoring in the cost of the new cab and acid dipping I decided to go ahead and let him do it until my welding skills get a little better. I wanted the drip rails shaved and the firewall cleaned up also. It looks to be about 2" outside diameter pipe.

kevhill85 · 10-10-2004, 08:07 PM

u have pic of your truck . i'm think of doing th edrip rail to . i shaved my 84 all the way around . lol . it just a proj

68LSS1 · 10-10-2004, 08:14 PM

Not right now I don't. The tilt front end is sitting on top of the cab. Not enough room in the garage. I am working on a deal for some 16X8 Vintique wheels so I can get the frame mobile and be able to put the cab on it. Hopefully in the next week or two.

kevhill85 · 10-10-2004, 08:18 PM

thanks . like to see the pic when ever u can send them . u can go to mine in my sig . i'll have update one tomorrow to see. the one there r what i started with . lol
