I had one of those clips in my TC as well....the clip snapped into a groove in the case if I remember right, and the magnet clipped into the clip.

Coming along nicely!

Thanks Brian, I will install that clip in the garbage pail then, now that i know it isn't needed and I didn't miss anything

Love the truck and the progress...



But I'm sure you're already aware of this....

gyman98

Thank you, yes but it's nice to hear others are excited to see it come together too. Helps with inspiration during set backs and frustrating times

Blue Goose

fantastic work

gyman98

Well doesn't look like much progress but it took me quite a while, the floor from the seat forward and nearly all the fire wall is done. Tomorrow I'll try and get the transfer case installed so I can finish up the floor then start welding it all together

Blue Goose

that floor looks fantastic. you can tell the work that was put into it.

gyman98

Not a whole lot of visual progress but a bit of progress regardless. Test fit the transfer case then removed and finished the floor. Set the valves in the engine while the cab was off. Modified a advance adapters 4wd shifter bracket just need to build a new shifter now. Started test fitting the seats. Finished the rear air bags. Lots of loose ends to tie up still

Wanted to buy new box sides from tisdale coach works but they are just to far out of my budget so with my newly learned sheet metal skills (?) I'm going to try and build new sides.

I just voted for your crewcab om LMC's march mayhem page.

gyman98

That was cool, especially with back stories on all the trucks.....went through and voted on all the trucks I liked.

Thanks for the link Mark!

There are some pretty nice trucks there.

Been hammering away little by little on the power wagon whenever I get a free moment. Gave my buddy some bud light to use his large computerized brake and shear and got the box sides bent into shape. Need to cut and bend the wheel openings yet as well as put the pipe on top. Also sheared the pieces needed to bend the stake pockets up which I can do on my brake. Finished the 4wd shifter and cut the floor open for that. Made a centre console modelled after a Tuffy Jeep model I found online.
