Re: Matt's 56 3600 4X4 Build

Sorry, no pics for this update. Front and rear end refreshes are almost complete. Will be putting the axles back under the frame this weekend.

I am trying to get most of the truck back into the garage before the cold rolls in so after this I will be finishing the 700r4 (needs tq converter, wiring and paint) and np208 (needs gasket and paint) so I can get my powertrain on the frame. Then I will be getting a gas tank and doing my fuel plumbing. On that note, Dave from Hollister Road was EXTREMELY helpful in researching a mustang tank set up. He took it upon himself to figure out which tank set up would best fit my needs (looking to have a rear fill, carb pick up and mount it under the frame rails to avoid moving the crossmembers and thus weakening rear spring support).

Once all that is done, I will be repairing my floor pans and front mounts on the cab so I can drop it back on the frame and have a warm place to work this fall and winter!
