Beautiful! I love seeing a project coming together.
In pic #2 I see that the board supports are hurting a little bit to hold that cab up. YOW! I would have been s#!tting myself if I saw that kinda bowing after I lifted my cab I'm trying to devise a way to lift my cab off the frame. I was thinking of installing a pulley system in my garage. I hope it will hold, I'll really have to reinforce it. Good luck on the remainder of your truck

Nice progress. f that shop were heated it wuld be done by now! (yes I'm jealous).
Stupid question: Why install cab, then motor, then tranny/xfer case? Would it not be easier to install tranny/xfer case, then engine, and finally cab?

Yeah, Yeah, i know
I am in the process of swaping a 4 speed for a automatic, but couldn't get it from Teeitup until today (i called him on Sunday) So i got impatient and did all that you see. I figure i have access to a lift and a transmission jack, so the swap shouldn't be to tough. Thanks David
