Re: PO has me PO'd
   TCS wires tied into harness gutter...Red, pink, and green/white wire mod. for the electric fan and water pump by M&H   There is 3/4" space between frame and core support for mount  Don't forget to install the emblem before you put the fender on the truck

Re: PO has me PO'd
Well, I uncrated it this morning...sweeeeet! Top was as you said it was. Nice to buy from a man of his word, gotta admit, I was nervous sending money, but after talking to you numerous times my gut said go for it
Nice packaging, very well done! No damage in transit. Thanks for marking those 2 bolts, would've never found them Anyone doing business with Jurassic-1 in the future, rest assured, he will not do you wrong

Re: PO has me PO'd
If I hear what your saying...the pass. side widnshield frame up top is to far away?
Is that what you meant by 'longer'? If you pull back the firewall just a small amount, it would translate into a fair bit of change at the top of the windshield frame. Simply pulling the windshield back isn't the answer till you check door opening dimension's. Last edited by vtblazer; 08-31-2009 at 09:55 AM. |

Re: PO has me PO'd
What about just filling the hardtop gap with this....
 Billy Mays wouldn't agree to sell it unless it was good.

Re: PO has me PO'd
Im glad I bolted my top back on and braced everything in before i sold it! Its a pain in the arse working around the braces, but will be worth it in the end. Good Luck

Meant to send you a PM, but since I have your ear, how are you making out with the floorboards? Personally, I would get rid of the torsion boxes, or whatever their called these days, makes it much easier to weld up the bottom seam, and seam seal your work. Tri-Pro makes some real nice repops

My PO sandwiched 1/8" plate top and bottom of the oringinal floor, then proceeded to fibreglass it in. When I cut it out with the cut off wheel I would have sparks, fire, heavy smoke, and drips of molten plastic I had to dodge. Did you ever get hot molten plastic on your bare skin? Post up picks on your progress and let me know where they are...Whats that Porterbilt guy like? Post up pics and we'll tell you if they are in the right location

Re: PO has me PO'd
SNAFU----averted, close call!!! I found out that if you hang 200 pounds of sh!t from the drip rail, it will suck the top right down
 -Greg, thanks for the idea, but I still had some leftover from the PO. He had it stuffed into a crossbrace under the bed, worked great as you can see, but the rest of the metal rusted out.LOL Found a better product, you can machine it, drill and tap it, and it really sticks to anything
