Nice job. What paint did you use.

Here is mine. I used a sawzall and cutting wheel and welded with a MIG. Much easier than I thought. Just purchased a high end metal blade for the saw.

I'll be waiting Chris. [thumbzup]

I just use a plastic "sippy" cup so it can't spill. If it falls over it just rolls around the cab but I have to wait until it rolls back to get another drink. rofl

I cut 36" off the rear of my bed just before the post with the tailgate chains on it. Used a sawsall and a cutting wheel with not problem. Welded the tail piece back on and the bed installed using the original mounts with no problem.

I use a 10" 1/4" socket extension for the upper bolt by the frame. As for the M/C itself, you have to wiggle it around a little and it will come out. I did not remove my airpack.

Thanks Gimp. Do you slide the slides sections in first and then try to pry the lower section in last?

I have been searching for the past hour trying to find posts that could give me tips on installing the three sided windshield seal into the windshield glass frame. I have the new seals ready to go and hope someone can tell me the best way to do it

Fine piece of work. You got a used J-Pipe in that pile???

I want a copy of your book too G. But, only if you autograph it. :smile:

I really wish you would finish the M38's first. I have invested a lot of time reading each and every post of the M38's and I have been left high and dry. Sort of like watching the Ten Commandments and having to stop at the 7th commandment. :lol::lol::lol:

Hope it goes well.

Ditto on the congratulations. That is a very sweet vehicle. Close to me in Texas too.
