What did you do to your truck today..
#4233
Maaayyybe I should have been more descriptive, changing body mounts doesn't bother me but it's the thought of yanking the tub and the rest of the body off so I can replace brake lines, fuel lines, treat\coat the frame. I was looking much further than what I led on
I'll just do the mounts and be done with I guess, already have a trans\tcase\carb rebuild on the to-do list and noticed that my rear axle was leaking from the axletube so I suppose it's probably time for a rebuild for that too.

I'll get a 30 rack of the good stuff then just to be on the safe side
I'm just wondering, since I would probably have the engine out, getting it rebuilt, I would have to wait a while to get it cleaned and bored out, new internals, HPOP and injectors built, I gotta do something to pass the time, so I figure to just take everything off the frame and sand the surface rust off and do the protect/preserve method? I'm not sure the shop has a sandblasting room. Would make the E-fuel easier to install, and could do the 32Gal fuel tank swap at the same time. There is an auto skills center on post that I can use, that has all the hoists, stands and equipment for the job. I don't have my own garage, so it would have to move along pretty quick since I pay for bay space(30$ a day usually)

It sure wouldn't take much, I can have the whole front end apart in under 5 minutes so I'm sure the tub wouldn't be tough. I'm trying to hold back on tearing it down too much though since I really want to start driving it the spring when the temps pop back up.
I'll have to build a couple of bedrooms from scratch in the basement and help take care of a newborn in a few weeks so garage time will be at an all time low
