I got to the point last winter where I got pretty accustomed to working in the cold. It's pretty cool how the body adjusts to the seasons. It does limit what you can do to your truck, though, as curing processes, etc. are really slowed down. You almost start wishing you had to torch more stuff apart 
Getting the front end apart is somewhat straightforward, but make sure you have a good internal spring compresser to get it back together. I couldn't get my external compressor setup to work with how the springs go up into the recess, so I borrowed an internal one from a local fella.
Good job so far! |
Thats good to know, I was just thinking about using some plastic if I bought a heater. Also, I need to get some insulated coveralls/pants or something ha. All I got is a long sleeve and some Dickies pants.
