Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic
I would like to know the same thing. I have already purchased this combo. I have installed the front, but the motor is out so I can't really tell the difference.

Re: 198Plus build
Well I got bored today and started bolting stuff back together. New doors fit really well, and new fenders fit pretty good......I'm just trying to get everything put back together to see if I really have a truck

Re: 198Plus build

Re: 198Plus build
I'm trying to set all the body lines on my truck and I'm not no body man, I need help. I Put my tail gate on and I have a problem, The back left corner of tail gate does not line up.....The other side is fine, I've loosened all bolts to try to line it up and still no luck. I don't think its the tailgate warped at least I hope not after all the money I spent on it......Any suggestions ?????
