Re: "The Bucket" project diary
Actually drove the Bucket down the road yesterday!
Got everything under the truck painted & lots of odd & end items finished. Then Friday put the frontend back under it for the final time. Spent most of Saturday installing driveshafts, shocks & working on the brakes.
Got the body trimmed so the rear tires don't rub; only lack trimming the front.
But it was good enough for a test drive!
First test was a few laps around the yard & all was good. The crossover steering setup is way better than the original steering ever felt. Then made a short trip down the road - it handles great!
From the ground to middle of the front wheel well opening was 37" before & now it's 44" high!
