    Thanks guys ! It sure is hard not to miss any spots, just when I thought I had it all covered I'd find another spot.

    one step closer

     



    A little closer to getting this truck rolling again. Front end all done or so I thought. Had it all together and when I went to grease the ball joints grease came out around the crimped shoulder of the disc where the fitting is screwed in. This wouldn't be a big deal but the darn thing was welded and painted and the whole suspension was together. I took it apart welded the the seam of the ball joint, put in it the lathe and turned it a bit to clean it a bit. Installed the joint, sand blasted the area of need and repainted . I'll install it tomorrow.

    painted frame

    That's the latest on my truck.

    Started to assemble the truck one more time to fit all the sheet mrtal and install hood latch and door latches. First thing I ran into was tire and inter fender clearance. Here's my fix's.



    A little heat and hammer on this one, needs a bit of work yet .
