Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)

i also mounted a junction block under the cab for all the large hot wires, not good pictures but here they are anyway ! Also installed my aluminum washers for my lower control arms from (Michigan Metal Works) and started working on laying out my holes in my new "shorter" cross braces, we are going to tighten up the gaps in the wood bed a little !

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)

make sure you mount the fuses for those big wires as close to the battery as you can , they draw a LOT of current and act like an arcwelder when shorted

Nice progress! Is the wood going on the truck itself or part of the display?

I am glad they sponsored you but I had a terrible experience with them. I found there sales rep to be super rude to me a few weeks back. They make nice products but they need some work on there customer service.
