Several have contacted me to inform me that my MSN Users photo site is gone. It showed a picture sequence of doing the S10-AD frame swap. I guess that since I never added or deleted photos it was considered inactive. Being such a computer dunce I don't know how to recover it but will help with what I can. The one thing I think is the most important on any frame swap is to leave the AD truck COMPLETELY TOGETHER. Just pull the steering column, tubes, cables wires, rods---anything between the cab/front clip and frame and leave it in one piece; this will save you multitudes of alignment problems later on. Pics show a 100# tractor weight hung on a channel bolted to the radiator core support and a chain anchored to the upper hinge to door pillar bolts to give a level cab/front clip angle (small weights can be added front or back to fine tune). This is very important since as you lower it onto the donor frame it makes tire position in the wheel well, the areas where trimming is necessary,and the position needed for cab mounts and the core support mount become obvious. If there is any interest in this I can show pictures from this file as a need arises. Pics show: (1) unbalance with lift bar through cab, (2) balance weight hung, (3) hanging in air completely level.
