Hmmm - I do live pretty close... Hey Evan - let's get together and compare notes.
WOW! That is a beautiful truck.
If measurements off of my 54 will help, I'd be happy to get them to you - but my set up is different.
Thanks to all! I spent the day driving it from client to client. Not a single issue - I was very deliberate in the shifting pattern both up...
Thanks! I found a few posts by Nate and I'll check out the linkage. I'm pretty sure that you are correct about my shifting mechanics. I can...
OK - Got everything back together and went for a drive - about 50 miles round trip. Everything was great on the way there. On the way back the...

I completely agree. I'm ready to get the big stuff done so I can spend more time driving it than working on it... The gas tank is out right now....
Thanks for the thoughts. Since I live in TX the issue of the sun and heat makes sense. The other issue is that I have a zero rust cab right now....
Admitting you have a problem is a good first step... ;) I love your work. Cheers!
I see in the catalogs that you can buy the sheet metal, the glass and weather stripping for a 5 Window cab. Is it realistic to cut the rear...
Ken, Thanks! It's good to hear about people who remember what this season is all about!
