Re: 51' 3100 build in PA New to Site

Bed, Bumper, Front Clip

Put the actual front clip on, still have to make rad support and bumper brackets etc. Got the bed mounts all done. I am doing a plywood bed (which I am customizing) I have it set up to grade down towards tail gate.
The bed itself is actually level from left to right and cab to back, doesn't look like it in the pics though.

I am going with no rear bumper and I put on this tow hitch for towing and it actually beefs up the rear for support and the bed lays on this as well. I think
I hit 3 birds with one stone. Plus I really like how it looks.

Got my s-10 brake pedal, I should be using. Hopefully I can tuck it up high in the firewall so it isn't an eyesore on the inside.

Lastly I started a thread about door locks for the drivers side 51'. I figured out that the door locks from the inside, using the handle. Better than not locking at all, but I will be changing that set up some time down the road.
