Hmmmm I've never seen a single line on a front disc system. I always figured it would be better volume wise to have a separate line for each caliper.

Mine on my '69 is the same.

That same prop valve could be used in a 73-87 application where the front lines are plumbed separatly at the prop valve.

lol, WOW is exactly what I think of your build!! Crazy amount of work your doing!! I saw your build shortly after signing up. Love your build too! What I really like is how many of us all have same or similar taste!! Maggie said your reply was the best yet!! Wish we all could meet up, hang out, and talk cars and trucks all day! This is the best board I ever been on!!
Thanks for the comments!!

Looking at the valve it's doing the same as the tee, either splitting the fluid at the valve or later at the tee. Thanks for looking out, I like that!!
Thanks

btw, I have some U-bolts on the way for the rear end!!

So we had big plans today, to get a lot done! We woke up to rain so our plans changed (no junkyard trip). We got up ate breakfest, watched tv, and rested!! We left around lunch went to home depot and picked up some wood.
Than to her grandfathers house to use his old table saw. Got a few boards cut before the saw quit working! I found a couple on craigslist, my plan is to pick one up this week, finish the boards, than give it to her grandfather.
Heres a few pics.

I was inching up on my measurments so I ended cutting some boards twice than the saw started making all kinds of noise, bearing must have let go. So for now this is all I have, but you get the idea!

We went with Cedar, it was cheap and the right width. I didn't have to rip any boards, only cut to length. Got the strips blank and cut to length from Mar-K. We will seal it later. Going to try and finish it this week.

jdoisher · 09-20-2012, 08:22 PM

ok I have to stop working on the truck!! This is my stopping point! The bed floor is done, I have a million holes to drill and I want to seal the wood but even those will have to wait. Heres a few finish floor pics and a few others, I threw the hood back on so Maggie and I could have a look!

Great job! Great build! The Home Cheapo bed floor came out real nice. I'd quickly throw some thinned out sealer on BOTH top and bottom before a long break though. A shame for sure if that new cedar started to twist, cup, and bow on ya before getting back at it. Keep up the good work!

coulter · 09-21-2012, 03:35 AM

the bed turned out nice!!!! hurry up and get ur new shop setup so yall can get back to work!!! this truck is gonna be sweet

northern 85 · 09-21-2012, 05:53 AM
