Re: Project “Learning as I Go”
Column looks good man. Only concern I have about the gauges is that that seems to be running a little high on the rpm's for where you are in this stage of the process. :lol: I think they look good in there. Not what I would run, but it's not my truck. If we all did the same thing then this hobby wouldn't be nearly as fun!

Re: Project “Learning as I Go”
Well it's been a while since I've updated this. Really hasn't been any big advances or picture worthy updates, but I still wanted to post an update just to keep track of my progress, and ask some questions. I finally got around to buying some parts I will need to get this thing back on the road. I have my new trac bar kit ordered, and will be getting my driveshaft shortened soon. I'm kind of concerned with the strength of the original shaft since I'm using the newer engine now. Do you think I would be better off trying to find a larger diameter shaft and get it modified to fit?
I did get my gauges hooked up, they all work except for the oil pressure. I've got a question about it posted in the LS swap section, but haven't found an answer for the problem yet. I got all my brake lines ran (they don't look that great) but I think they will work. Got my radiator installed and trans cooler lines ran. I am to the point now that I can set the cab back on and see if it all fits, but I want to try to get the oil pressure gauge working first. Sorry for the rant, and lack of pics. |
Re: Project “Learning as I Go”
Sounds like you're coming right along with it. I don't think you will have any problems with the driveshaft. PM Scotts62. He and the guy that he used to work with work with driveshafts daily. They should be able to answer your questions.

Re: Project “Learning as I Go”
Well like I said, my brakelines aren't anything to write home about but I have to post some pics. I think I might redo the rears, I have enought line do it, we will see. I talked to Scott and am going to get the driveshaft squared away soon. Dang my frame is dirty!

Re: Project “Learning as I Go”
Today I picked up new brake shoes, and wheel cylinders I just have to get out there and start working. I haven't worked on drum brakes for a LONG time, hopefully it's like riding a bike. The brown truck showed up a few minutes ago with my shock relocators, drop blocks and trac bar too. :metal: Figured I'd post some pics.

Re: Project “Learning as I Go”
Today was a good day, got the cab back on! Everything went really well, I was worried that my h-pipe might hit, but it was all good. I also got my old AC stuff pulled out, found a little mascot for the build, he was a little flat though. I also found out that the steering column shafts from the 71 and the 94 column I am using are the same size, so they will slide right together. Got alot of little stuff to finish up, but I should be driving this thing again fairly soon. Thanks for looking.
