Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside

Me too guys. I put the steering column in and and it sits tilted a little but works. Like yours Matt. lol. I found a couple more leaks on the master cylinder and tightened them up. fingers crossed. I cleaned and painted the bracket and clamp that hold the column to the firewall. Its still tacky so it'll go on tomorrow. I also started my cowl.

Aww, man. It stinks when parts dont fit. It takes a lot of skill to drive a truck with a crooked column,lol.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside

I hear ya. I needed an exhaust hanger and Rus was nice enough to let me have one off of his frame that we just picked up. I cleaned it a little and painted it. I got some clamps so I should be ready to put the exhaust on tomorrow evening. I still need to get a longer flex pipe so it'll go out the door.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside

I spent the evening putting the fuse box seal on and aligning the fenders and hood. I got the drivers side close and the passenger side needs the door adjusted then the fender can be put right. I have been thinking about the porter bilt hinges kit and I really like them. I will save my dimes though. I shot some pics so you can see that having one panel or door off can throw the whole alignment off. I should have started with the doors then moved forward. But I think I'll start with them after Choncho gets running. I also threw the cowl on and it will be chopped and diced to fit like it should. I have never liked the way these cowls fit.
