Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
I'm not looking for nothing crazy... I was looking at some injectors from bd diesel either 45 or 60 hp then a 3 piece manifold and a superb single turbo... But I have lots of other things to tie up first.. Brake lines fuel lines pump sending unit all the good stuff

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
Well waiting for the lift pump and some russel fitting for the fuel lines, also have the proportioning valve coming all the brake lines and fitting... So back to body work till that stuff shows up... Blocked out the epoxy primer find my problems areas and got em all beat out and filled and blocked... Just need to get it up on stands and do the rockers and it will be ready for a coat of epoxy primer followed up by some Polly high build... Depending in how long the brake and fuel parts take to show up I might even get the box sided blocked down and shot in high build aswell

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
Cabs all epoxy primed and sprayed with high build fixed all the dings I could find see what happens when I guide coat and block out... All my brake lines showed up the rest of tho fittings will be in first thing and my summit order is on its way... Can't wait... Only thing I'm not sure on a time frame is the fass lift pump which was back ordered

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
Gettin back at it a bit... Trying to get my acreage yard done aswell finally got a break from it... Changed my traction bars again and changed the mounts this is the final time ... 1.750 x 0.250 wall all the jam nuts and tube ends came in. So there all welded up and 7/8 hiem joints in the ends... Shouldn't break them anyways. Got the rear diff brake lines all bent and run up to the frame just have to mount the proportion valve and tie the brakes in. My daily driver went into my buddy's shop to get upper control arms by the end of the day it come out six inches taller... Nice guy but cut into my crew cab money...

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
Got my front end set back on just so I could hold the rad support while I cut n hacked it up... Got it all cut open and supports removed n replaced with 3/4inch square tubing around the outside edge of the intercooler... Not pictured but the top mounts are in just have to build something to hold the bottem... Going to order paint and bed liner and hopefully get the fire wall sprayed and the cab floor inside so I can get it back on the frame.

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
Ended up ordering paint for the firewall today as well as bed liner for the floor... Didn't go with cordova brown reason being I don't want to spray tri coat paint seeing that the truck will be sprayed 3 separate times for the brown... So I had to open the wallet and went with house of kolor root beer candy basecoat... Very nice bright brown in the sun... Very expensive ...hopefully don't screw it up haha.

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
This is the colour chip from house of kolor pretty nice... Got the cab floor all sanded down ready for some epoxy and bed liner ... Should be shooting tomorrow if the bed liner shows up then it's prep the fire wall so it's ready when the paint shows up...

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
Got the poly blocked out on the box and any fixing needed done aswell and everything sitting together for final tweaking of panels... Haven't touched the truck in a few weeks been real busy with work... The gf and I have also picked up another project, she wanted something she could help on and learn the ropes so... How about a 1952 Morris minor 4 door it's about 90% complete with just a little rust in the trunk floor... Ill throw a picture up once I haul it home Monday..
