Are you linking your pictures from another site or attaching them?

If from another site, click on properties, copy and paste the URL address, then put [img] before the URL and [/img] after the URL.

Or click on manage attachments when replying and add pics.

Make sense?

rockthedog · 01-27-2008, 06:47 PM

looking good dan.......did you take any pics with the axels in? ........what was the wheelbase we measured?

wheres my tire........ did you set it on fire to keep you warm in the shop?

war pony · 01-27-2008, 07:26 PM

Yes it has been cold in the shop, and I am out of propane. your tire is safe ,its a good referance for me . The wheel base now is aprox 105.5 maybe 4 more inches out back. The front axle is way forward. I have a few more pics in the camera, try to get them on soon. I was working on the front bumper a bit, got the light holes in not mounted yet I didnt like the first set of brakits so I will do over.

NVScouter · 01-28-2008, 02:58 PM

Brandon,

The body isnt that bad for a couple guys. When I did my body lift years ago the hard part was breaking it all free of the decades of rust. I bought a 4x4 adn cut it into 4-6" sections and jacked the body up and used them as wedges.

After that it was a 3-4 person job but 2 of us did it since that was all we had.

war pony · 01-28-2008, 05:36 PM

hey Brandon, its just 3 inch chanle with some half inch holes i also used my engine hoist for the back. i put a spreder bar bolted at the tail gate latch/hook plate. works prety well when you are by your self

war pony · 02-05-2008, 05:30 PM

The engine may be coming down to the Isuzu 4bd2tc , insted of cummins 4bt. too hard to find and I have the Isuzu.The rough part is my front dif, is driver side .
