No trophy.... Clean it run it and start looking for the leak, should be a PITA.

Re: My 68 swb build.

i got the cab mounts finally tightened down, started securing the brake line on the frame and doing some little stuff under the truck while i had the jack under it. i think im gonna rerun the gas line so the bends are the same as the brake line...

What pickup are u referring to? Shouldn't matter where you put it just as long as you can access it easily. Mine is right on the frame just a few inches from the pump, another at the back above the rear axel.

ya..when you close the door, and if you put it in the jamb like i did, you need a place for the wiring to go...or it would bunch up and the door wont close. in all honesty, i think i screwed up but it ended up working in the long run....one reason is i dont have the vents anymore...and i think thats where most people run the wiring...

Re: My 68 swb build.

and it was really the only place to clear the one piece window track...just remember that if you drill in basically the same area, you have to go thru the inner support brace inside the door....and i did this with the doors on with a 3/4 hole saw...one in the door, one in the jamb, and one on the inside of the cab directly under where the dash and kick panel meet for the wiring to run through
