Re: What Did You Do With Your Truck Today ?
Sadly I do not know, this guy advertises them once in a while, says he gets them from a guy in LA area that builds show cars, they have been mounted, bases were modified to sit on a flat floor, I can find no manufacturers marks on them. 425 for the set.

Re: What Did You Do With Your Truck Today ?
Any more pictures on this? I always wonder what guys do after they've completed these kids of repairs to stop that surface rust you can clearly see is still inside? Seems like blasting would work good, followed by rattle can undercoater in there, but of course a good epoxy primer would be better.
Any advice appreciated. |

Re: What Did You Do With Your Truck Today ?
Throw that tape measure away and buy a new one!!! If you don't get rid of it before you get the new one, the new one will get infected!

Re: What Did You Do With Your Truck Today ?
Spent an hour at the hose shop getting power steering hoses made up. Pick them up today. Trimmed camaro radiator mounting tabs and started removing inside angles on the core support to give room to lower the radiator in. Someday...............

Just ordered new engine/trans crossmembers and mounts. The first step in many of a badly needed rehab for this sucker.
