Great to see an updated - I'm eager to see this one completed!

muddyole 69 · 12-10-2006, 02:36 AM

Seriously cool truck how much of a pain was it to mount the chevy cab to the dodge frame ? Have the dodge truck sans body and 69 cab etc was seriously thinking the same deal with a focus more on work truck than show yours looks to be a truck worthy of showing off

and very often keep us posted Mike

1Ton · 12-10-2006, 11:17 AM

Looking good. Should be fun when done.

chosn 1 · 12-10-2006, 12:13 PM

in response to muddyole 69, the mounting of the cab and frontclip was much easier than i thought it would be. i removed the dodge cab mounts completely, then i hung the cab and front end over the frame from an overhead gantry, i centered the wheelwells and lowered cab down as much as i thought i could get away with then fabbed some blocks to temp hold everything in place ithen checked some clearances. if it wasn't for the fact that i wanted the charge air cooler i could have used the gm rad support with no mods but c.a.coolers help make serious hp so i used the outer portions of the gm rad support and grafted them to the dodge rad/ cooler support. after that mod the rest was a cakewalk. I went acouple step further and cutout the firewalll and tran reliefs and made a flat firewall and totally flat floor too! oh by the way this truck is not really for show as i will be running it daily as my steel hauling and portable welding rig

OHsweet69 · 12-11-2006, 07:03 PM

thanks again for the update. LOOKS SWEET!!!!

chosn 1 · 12-12-2006, 12:29 AM

maybe this pic will show alittle of what i have in mind for my rear fenders

chosn 1 · 12-12-2006, 12:32 AM

alittle bit of massaging and that 67-72inner fender just might look at home there!

muddyole 69 · 12-21-2006, 01:51 AM

Thanks for the reply I will be following this one closely

Mike

Bishops Trucks · 12-21-2006, 04:00 AM
