Re: 55 make over
day 8: started blocking the back of the cab and gas cap area along with the rest of the truck. hard to imagine that hey had over 1/8" over the cap area and to 1/4" going down to the cab corner and 1/8" to little over a 1/4" across the whole back! we ran over the truck with a magnet looking for any more thick areas and everything else seems to be solid, so we just started blocking over the body looking any low spots or weird areas that may show. so far everything seems to be good. we'll probably finish blocking the body out this week. the new doors and corners are on the way.
we still gotta adjust the rear end 4 link and pan hard bar a little and hopefully that'll fix the unsquared part...on a side note i pray they didn't cut the rear end and got one side longer a shade than the other!? ran into rubbing issues when we put it on the stands, just have to measure and find out...and also need to look at the drum brakes on the rear i think they seized up from sitting. truck is in neutral and no free rolling
thinking about doing the caddy lights into the rear sides by the tailgate, they make the shape of the caddy tail lights already...lol
