Re: Maggie's Custom
This is what I worked on last night!!
As you can see I have a lot left to do!! The motor is wired and running, I have to run the tail light harness from the cab back, install the rest of the cooling system, the front headlight harness, wire the turn signals, you get the idea!! Maggie is ready to drive it!! I can't get it done fast enough!! Jason |

Re: Maggie's Custom
Nice updates man! Nice to see ur wife back at it with you too! Is that a one piece drive shaft? Have more pictures of that? Changed ur mind about running the exhaust through the frame rails? Can't wait for the start up video!!!

Re: Maggie's Custom
I shortened the stock drive shaft (one peice). I can take more pictures of it tonight, I had Inland Truck do it for me. She is out there as much as she can be! Always helps when she can. It looked a ton easier to do the exhaust out side the frame rails.

Re: Maggie's Custom
Nice pics, & great work you're doing. Won't be long till she's on the road. I know I'd be anxious to drive it as well! Oh, & nice score on the rear bumper; it fits the look perfectly.

Re: Maggie's Custom
Now see?
Coulter makes doing your own exhaust look wicked cool and impossible to replicate. You make it look easy enough that I think I could do it.... Hmmmmmmmm

Re: Maggie's Custom
nice build, i have quick question. im putting mine back together, if you can, can you tell me what the big whole next to the gas pedal right on the firewall is for or is there just a plug covering that hole and only used its for a manual trans?

Re: Maggie's Custom
Quote:
That hole (just left of the gas pedal, on the firewall) is for the manual transmission linkage. A rod going from the clutch pedal assembly will pass down through that to a clutch throwout link which will then, in turn, push against the clutch fork. You can plug it if you are running an automatic trans.
