Re: "FRAME OFF" Has Begun - Wish Me Luck! - Pics
Here's a few more pics....More to come...scored the NOS grill off a local member....Also started to install the wood bed today....Got the 4 short boards in and all but the one short cross sill...I'm using the MAR-K kit with the hidden fasteners, so I can't go any further until the bed is back on the chassis...which is gonna happen on Wednesday along with the cab....The she's coming back to the homestead!

Scratching sound was I assume the new throw-out bearing full of cold hard fresh grease trying to tun.

Re: "FRAME OFF" Has Begun - Wish Me Luck! - Pics
Well....I mounted the cab & bed yesterday at the painters shop and brought her home today.....Looks like the tires are gonna be a little too small...aargh!...Gonna probably bump up to some 33x10.5x15 All Terrains.....hopefully my stock wheels will be able handle them as I'm pretty close to the tie rod already with the 9.5" wides.
Spent today getting the bed & cab aligned, shimmed and squared and started installing the bed wood.....The hidden fastener kit from Mar-K is SWEET....Check out the tailgate, the painter did just an awesome job on the white letters!

Re: "FRAME OFF" Has Begun - Wish Me Luck! - Pics
Man that looks sharp! I am sooo jealous, I'm going to do blue/white as well, just a bit darker blue. Trouble is I'm still at the chassis stage. Great work.
Bill.

Re: "FRAME OFF" Has Begun - Wish Me Luck! - Pics
Making a little headway….....also learned that Muratic Acid is simply awesome for cleaning parts & hardware...Oh yea, I did get a new set of tires for it (no pic yet)...I just bumped it up a size to 31x10.5x15....I also opted for the All Terrains instead of the Muds....It looks a ton better!....
Waiting on a couple small tailgate parts….but she’s about ready to get installed Cleaned, painted, lubed and installed the parking brake assembly Cleaned, painted & installed drivers side air vent….I don’t think I need the passenger side as I will be installing a Vintage Air system Also scored some NOS taillight & headlight bezels

Re: "FRAME OFF" Has Begun - Wish Me Luck! - Pics
Thanks all....just taking my time one part at a time...I'm still learning so it's probably taking me twice as long to do everything...LOL
Quote:
The bed strips are the aluminum type....I really liked the "T" bolt style fastener that it has....For aluminum they are very stout as I guess they are a quality extrusion!...I can't say enough about the Mar-k product....thier stuff looks awesome and fits perfect!
