It's glock35ipsc's fault......

.......welll not really, but seeing his as a truck again got me in gear some today. I needed to do it anyways so I had room to maneuver and take the bed off.

Before I went crazy, I decided to finishing hook up my home made pipes and mufflers. Then it was time to get things ready to put the cab on.

Setup my homemade cab lifter again and got the cab in place. Front and back shot before she is set into place. This made taking the cab off and today putting it back on real easy, especially when the manpower force is just me, myself and I.

Re: It's glock35ipsc's fault......

Well she is in place, just loosely though until I get the front clip on. Uncovered the motor for a couple of shots without the shower curtain.

Pulled the taillights and rear wiring out after this, then called it a day.

Man, it is sure nice to see it with a cab on again, almost looks like it is ready to run.


Oh yeah, thanks for the motivation Glock...since I did start by pickin on ya!!

Re: It's glock35ipsc's fault......

Looks like major progress now Bill. Looks like there is plenty of clearance around those headers too.
Just got my engine back so I'll be moving toward the body and paint next too.

Nothing like a bit of motivation. I'm motivated but just no free time presently - hopefully soon!

Looking great - keep after it.

I need a garage like yours. Thats awesome! Truck is looking good. Good idea about the home made cab lifter, Im going to have to take note of that when we replace my fathers cab supports.

Glad I could be such a bad influence!!!

Great progress! I have temporarily stalled on mine, so-to-speak. Spent the last week or so getting the bikes ready to ride to Sturgis tomorrow. Plus, I bought an enclosed snowmobile trailer, so I have been gussying it up with lights, cabnets and stuff. And it's been hot, even with the A/C on!!

Anyhow, looking great! Keep it up!
