Thanks that is what I thought after looking at it for a while.

I also noticed that with no engine and transmission the upper control arm rubber is sitting right on the large cross member. With weight I am sure it would sit right in the middle of the upper and lower control arms and their respective rubbers!

Guess I better get back on the cab.

We, meaning the wife and myself, have decided that I will not be getting the engine and transmission until about this time next year. We are planning a cross North America road trip with fifth wheel in August to visit our daughter in NFLD.

Should give me lots of time to get cab sorted including the doors that have lots of work left. As well the million other things to do...
