Re: Porterbuilt Dropmember
 

Are you not wanting to drill a hole and run the tubing thru a rubber grommet?
Not sure what you are looking for.
You can buy "bulkhead" PTC fittings that would mount in the frame rail.

Re: Porterbuilt Dropmember
 

That's a nice fitting Keith! Pricey too! :lol:. I will have to check into those.
I have no problem drilling a hole in the frame. I'm just trying to figure out if people are coming from the front side of the front crossmember (red) or from the backside of the front crossmember (blue). If you come from the front, you have to loop the air lines 180. If you come from the backside, you have to contend with the brake lines and the shock mounts. Either way, I don't see and easy or clean way to do this.....

It is, but I'm not doing the steel lines...:(

Re: Porterbuilt Dropmember
 

Super clean. I say run it bed less

Re: Porterbuilt Dropmember
 

I most definitely will for a while especially because it will take me a while to build the bed structure to clear the notch and what not.

Pluggin' away...

Once I get it all assembled, checked for clearance etc, and working with the body on it... I'll blow it all back apart for paint & powdercoat.

I'm having an issue with the BBC sitting way low in the chassis, but I actually found that in post #597 I asked and was answered, that the mounting tabs for the SBC and BBC are the same. I can't even use a set of manifolds with the motor right now as it sits...it needs to come up 3/4" or so... Waiting to hear back from PB now.

Newer pics, but I’m no where near done. First pic is ride height.

Remember, I’m a touring front DM and mild rear DM. The kmember lays on the concrete.
