Thanks Jeff. Weather today is bright and sunny. I don't know if they are coming home today or tomorrow. If not today I will visit them tonight.

Brian, congratulations!! Welcome to the world, Bailee!

That is so good congrats! Looking forward to being a grampa one day myself, I think that's the reward of having children. Lol. Keep warm and stay safe out east.

Well a little more progress to report. Finished fitting the floor and welded it in. Removed the Power Steering box and one of the motor mount on the frame. I've been kind of sore, as I took a digger off the fork lift at work I will have to mess with the floor cab mount as I'm having fitment problems. I've got a plan and it will all get sorted out.

Tacked in place.



No turning back now.


As soon as I get the other motor frame mount out, the brake lines removed,and the fuel lines all out I will remove the frame cross member and start cleaning everything.

Happy Spring everybody.

I just ordered cab floor pan supports u-channel from Macs. 1/2 the price of DC, shipping $17.99. Then I can finish the passenger side. Yeah

Thanks Pat. Looks like I am having the same dilemma with cab supports as you. I will drill right and left side spot welds out then bend it so it fits right then weld it back together. But that is next on the list.

Sucks to have to do that to brand new mounts, but, what else can you do?
