Last weekend I made a trip to LMC and got the parts needed to properly mount the radiator core support. It was a long trip, about 1600 miles one way but worth it
OK, so I was in town already, so it was convienent just to stop by.
I got the front sheet metal all hung.
Then I took the truck for its "initial" 1/2 ton voyage. I just drove down the driveway. Its a little bumpy without the rear shocks hooked up, but it drove. The brakes worked well.
Then I went to the place where I get metal and got a piece of square tubing to make it easier to use my engine hoist to remove the bed. I'll do that tomorrow to get the cross member installed that the shocks mount too. Also got some welding gas while I was there.
