Got the filter mounted to the frame last night. I'm still waiting on my hose and fittings that I was expecting to arrive Friday but will now be here next Wednesday. Amazon has better prices but the delivery needs some work.

Looking good

It has been a while since I have posted any progress on the truck. I. Did manage to get the rest of the fuel lines made and installed. I used Russell fittings and line and really like how they turned out.

greg65 · 02-25-2017, 01:52 PM

I also relocated the trans cooler from the crossmember to the frame right under the radiator. Now I can take advantage of the radiator's internal cooler as well as the external cooler. Decided to go with Summit's fittings. Really felt good working on the old truck again.

siggyfreud · 02-25-2017, 03:55 PM

Looking good! I too have used both the Russell fitting as well as Summit's brand. Both have come together equally well, though I haven't actually used fluid through either setups yet.

likaroc13 · 02-26-2017, 09:29 AM

Nice to see you making some more progress Greg! It does feel good to get out there & tinker with stuff.

Looks like we are in the same boat. The truck has been put on the back burner for a while and really looking forward to getting it back on the road.

Yes it does Phillip. I know you will be stoked to get your truck back running again.

That'll be a neat day for sure! Gotta work on getting some seat belts installed.

aggie91 · 03-01-2017, 11:06 AM

Glad to see you back on it. I like where you mounted the trans cooler to make it cleaner to use the one in the radiator too.

Look what big brown dropped off today. Big thanks to Matt at MCB's for the great price on my wiring kit. Since the front wiring will be run under the inner fenders I need to mount the fuse panel and drill the hole on the firewall. Hopefully I can get that done this weekend.

greg65 · 07-10-2017, 12:10 PM

I started working on my cowl side panels this weekend. The passenger side had a couple pin holes right behind the antenna opening. After bead blasting and welding the area, I cleaned both pieces and applied POR 15 to both. Here are a couple before and after pictures. Now for a little filler and sanding.

Looking good Greg, fuel lines are awesome.

Thank you sir. With a seventeen and a fifteen year old I don't have a lot of truck time. But it will get finished one day. Hopefully.

My daughter Jordan getting her senior pictures made and my son Evan at his Spring game with his friend Tyler. I hope all is going good with you and thanks for checking in.

Great looking young lady & man you have there, Greg. I know you're proud of them. I'm learning all too well about lack of time these days!

Thank you Phillip. The older they get the more activities they get into. But I wouldn't trade it for anything.

greg65 · 01-26-2018, 11:05 AM

I haven't posted in a while but here are a few updates. Took the truck to my brother in law's shop to get the fenders and front panel lined up. As usual with aftermarket replacement sheet metal I had to slot some of the holes for proper fitment. The grille mounting panel was a little high on one corner so we had to modify it a little.
