On friday I had my crossmember arms bent how I wanted them to be, they turned out real nice.

toybuilt · « **Reply #155 on:** Aug 20, 2006, 03:45:37 PM »

This morning I put my crossmember together. I welded the arms of the crossmember to the skidplate and used 3"x3"x1/4" angle iron for the frame mount with two bolts on each side of the crossmember. All of the crossmember arms are 3/8"x5" thick and the skidplate it 14"x8"x3/8" thick.

No I haven't had to cut any more of the floor board out. I do need to brace it because it bends when you put just a little wait on it.

I have tilted the rear axle up, so I'm good to go for driveshafts which I ordered today.

looking sweet, I like the simplicity of it. its not that often that you see a full bodied truck with 60s thats not linkd, hydrod, blah, blah. Are you still in line for mcr5? I would really like to check it out there

All most deffinetly be there, but probably not in my truck. I'm close but I'm also out of truck money, so that kinda brings everything to a stop.

I got some cool stuff for my truck. My twin sticks for my np205, a universal slave cylinder and Tom Woods’s driveshafts.

toybuilt · « **Reply #168 on:** Aug 31, 2006, 11:53:47 PM »

Well I had anough time after work to get both driveshafts and my twin stick bolted in my truck, heres how they look.

toybuilt · « **Reply #169 on:** Aug 31, 2006, 11:59:47 PM »

Had to cut out more floor board for my twin sticks too. Heres the rear driveshaft.

crawlerdan · « **Reply #174 on:** Nov 04, 2006, 04:54:16 PM »

hes got about 90% done..waiting on fuel lines and wiring to fire it up

kneedownnate · « **Reply #175 on:** Nov 04, 2006, 08:04:41 PM »

How long are the splines on the front driveline?

toybuilt · « **Reply #176 on:** Nov 18, 2006, 07:30:36 PM »

Both my driveshafts are made by Tom Woods, the front has a 10" slip on it.

Well my truck is very close to being finished. Ill I have to do is put the computer in and finish the fuel lines, before I can fire it up. From there I am waiting for my electric fan to come in and double check everthing.
