I know reality sucks don't it. Could'nt bring myself to sand blasting my frame. I did wire brush it good though. Put a coat of rust restorer and two coats of gloss black. I was in such a big rush to get my bed back on I forgot to take some pics. I missed driving it. I don't want to spent a lot of time or money on the 64 yet. I'm just going to drive it ther way it is for now. I might get a couple bumpers for it. Now I can work on getting my 66 to lay frame. Or it least thinking about getting it to lay frame. Hunting season is coming up quick and the month of September is'nt a big $$ maker for me. It's hard to make cash chasing elk for a month.

Re: Daverods project 66

I've got two bedsides that look about the same. Think this could be fixed? It looks worse in person the curve part is really wacked. The first pics shows it the best.

Re: Daverods project 66

if your crossmember is pancaked then you will be good, to lay that thing out with dropspindles. You'll have to get 2 1/2", some people use 3" but you have problems with wheels. One thing you can do if you have the SD cups too is to cut them down to 1".

Hot Rodders usually Z the back of the frame. I guess it's called the same when you do the front. Another way to get it to lay rockers is to body drop it, or channel it. (Same thing) But you loose floor height. I would rather Z it. Then the inside of the cab looks stock.
But what question did you have? Did you just want to see pictures of how it's done?

Re: Daverods project 66

Dave I dont think you will have to Z it, I think the SD and PD crossmembers are raised up 1 1/2" as well and Mine lays out. But check it first. I'm going to PM you some info on the Z.

I is a member. 106 Makes me just sweat thinking about it. I have to tear a dormer off a roof tomorrow and install a skylight. Bring it. I'm hoping I can do most the work from the inside. With the AC cranked.

From what I remember Hilandr on here is a pretty good electrician and a great guy when it comes to helping people. I would look him up.
