Cab mount carnage , frame & engine

I really had to butcher the spot welds because I could not get to the ones above the frame with the spot weld cutter. The air hammer came in handy.
The front dress of the Coyote is from Horse Power By The Hour that mounts the AC compressor, power steering pump and alternator.
I cut up a fuel pump hat from CV and was able to fit it in the tank.
The exhaust is going under the "B" cross member.
The cab mounts were worse than I thought, new ones on the way.
Hackster told me to shift the engine up and back to clear the CV clip.
I pressed the rear control mounts out of their brackets and re-clocked them so that the rear of the arms can be moved left & right for adjustment.
Since the frame is shimmed 1" the rear support brackets resemble the original radius arm mounts. I still want to be able to jump curbs and use it as a truck.

Nice seeing pics of your build Kenny. Looks like you're going to do some things "The Road Less Traveled". I'm lovin' it.
