Re: Daverods 52
Winter here, hope to get some things done on my truck. Put my shifter on my transmission. Moved my vent handle to the other side. In the process of mounting my gas tank.

Re: Daverods 52
Two days to get this far. Started off with no plan that was part of the problem. After lots of welding and grinding and cutting. Ended up with this. First plan forgot about the pumkin moving up and down. After making room for the pumkin the second failed plan forgot to leave room for the shocks. After starting over, we're going with the 3rd plan. Still subject to change.

Re: Daverods 52
It's kinda hard to get a good picture. I just welded to square bars 1x1 from driver to passager side. One all the way up and the other about 5" below that. My biggest problem was moving the handle for the vent. It was really easy still need to run brake lines. That's next on my list.

Re: Daverods 52
Steering hose thing is pissin me. First time I got a 84 s10 hose. The hose going into the pump would'nt fit. Then I got a 81 350 hose. It has the wrong end on it, I guess I have a old steering pump or somthing. I need a hose with a invert on one end? Do they even make yhat? Maybe I better just get a newer pump?

Re: Daverods 52
Decided to buy a newer steering pump. I guess the new pumps use the o ring style the older pumps use a flare. I just hope it mounts up ok.

Re: Daverods 52
I was puttting my pads on.....? Is there anything that holds the outside pad in place? It fits where it needs to be, it just seems loose? I've limited brake smarts. So be ready for more ??? I'll get some pics when my phone charges..Damn phone. I have some of the old brake line I was going to see if I could reuse it on the front. It looks really small and easy to bend.. It's gotta work right. It just seems a lot smaller than other stuff I've messed with.

Re: Daverods 52
Worked on brake lines alittle. Used most the old s10 stuff. Thinking about a xpipe and some turn outs. The headers came with 1 7/8 going out. TYhink I would be ok if I changed the collector fitting thing to 2.25? Seems like all the xpipe, turn outs and stuff are all large than 1 7/8. Confussed
