Thanks Kim!
Hey Luther! How ya been? We're excited to be back on the 58, been sitting too long. We've got a bit of trimming/massaging to drop the cab down to the chassis...hope to get that done over this next weekend (they're forecasting rain all weekend...perfect for shop time )

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
Been doing good! What are y'all thinking for body mount design? Are you going to include rubber mounts? I know on my truck I didn't add any rubber body mounts since that was not the original setup. That Cummins engine in my truck makes sure I have alot of rattles and squeaks.I kinda regret not adding them now.

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
Worked on the front bumper tonight. The stock bumper was bent, gouged, and twisted, but a bit of time with a BFH and the press had it straight enough to use. We decided to flip it upside down and after filling and smoothing the stock mounting holes, a couple simple plates welded on the inside allowed it to bolt right up to the front frame horns. We took it down to bare metal in preparation for some type of push bar and to plate the gap left on the top edge. Stick with us...I think it will come out alright

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
I did almost the exact same thing with my front bumper.
They fit the trucks lines better upside down. Kim |

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
Started eyeballing what it's going to take to fit the radiator in with some kind of fan...not a lot of room.
Picked up a tilt column to start laying things out...
