Well I am not winning any awards for my brackets and tabs.
What’s worse I told myself I was just going to buy them (I am just too cheap)

Not much progress today Spent most my time staring at it then working. But I got the front Mocked up and I am glad it’s only tacked in cause it looks like I am going to have issues with my drive line and the upper link.

It looks great and you're moving right along, but you've built your front suspension and haven't mounted your motor. Are you sure it's going clear?

 

[Bucking Bronco]

from my measurments it should. but it is only tacked in place, also its still in single shear so if I need to move anything it will be real easy. I am anticipating moving the upper links as I dont like the way they are mounted to the chassis.

I am hopefully putting the motor and trans in this weekend

Thanks Next time I have my trailer out I will come get it.




It clears the motor but the belt and the extention for the oil filter get in the way. Luckily Its just tacked in place.

I like most of what I'm seeing. You're showing off some skills with this build and I am jealous! Well done and keep it up!

Any updates on this?

 

[Bucking Bronco]

Other then it needs to be dusted now. NO

Between getting busy at work and waiting for parts I have not had much time to work on it.

Just wait until it runs and drives, and then you have to strip it all the way down for paint. It feels like you lose sooooo much ground. Congrats on completing step 113 though, even if it is out of order!
