What did you do to your truck today?

I really like the design of your front end support. I’ve seen many where the main heavy tube runs straight front to back against the firewall, and would seem to be rather dangerous for the occupants in a front end crash. Your design would absorb a lot of deflection rather than sending it into the cab. Beautiful workmanship.

I finished up the front bracing to the radiator support on both sides and finished up my Frankensteinish/Porter Built cross member/driveshaft loop. I need to scope out if I need to weld on the small clips that hold the end of the brakelines or if they will just pass thru the frame, other than that I don't think I have any more fab work to do but guarantee there will be something else. Always seem to need to remove new paint somewhere to weld on a project.
