Going to lay down some KBS coating rust seal this week (weather permitting). So after I cleaned that up I started removing the harness and got most of it out...will finish today. Tidy up under the dash. Going to paint the interior cab and firewall. Then start the rewire with AAW update kit.
I need to do the passenger side kick panel and door sill also. I expect to find the same rust over there.
The more I get into this truck the more I see how the "upgrades" weren't done correctly. I want to replace/rebuild my power steering box. The box has only 3 bolts holding it on and isn't located in the correct holes. They drilled new holes and moved it back I guess to fit the steering shaft they had? So I need to get that taken care of and correct. Probably hit CaptainFab up for his power steering box bracket to be on the safe side.
Slow and Steady right?

Slow and steady my brother......I bought the PS bracket from Capt Fab as well....Just waiting on the unit to be removed from another truck so I can get it installed in mine.
Its funny how when you look at a truck to buy that you don't see all the little things that have been covered up...Lord knows I didn't know my rockers and part of my floor was a bondo pit....But its all good...Its being done right now.
