First run!
We have been working on my daughter's 68 step side. We had a few minor problems with getting the motor to fire but yesterday we over came them and she fired up for the first time. We tried 2 old start's my buddy had at his shop. Neither one would work. I bought a mini starter from O Reilly's and it was bad. Got the second one from them and still no start. We did some adjusting and figured out it was battery related.
Had a older battery and tried using it with no luck. Got another one out of a vehicle that ran but it died on us while trying to crank it. I pulled the battery out of the Ramp truck and it fired right up! Here is the first start of it. Hope to have the cab set by Thanksgiving maybe. Here are few pictures of the chassis & cab on the lift and the old LWB frame.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFq_F39i1cE

Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs. |
