When you cut the accessory bracket you have to change the belt orientation to this.

Very nice!! Funny how tight everything gets during the build! Looks great. Can we get an overall shot of what the whole project looks like? Can't wait to see more updates. Moving along nicely.

This is it so far

So the rear has warn hubs with rcv center gears installed. I question If this is strong enough.
Anybody broke one of these with the rcv gear?
Can you just pop a new one in if it breaks or does it destroy everything?

Do you have a needfor locking hubs in the rear or is that just what you had?

I'd personally prefer drive slugs for the rear axle to prevent a potential problem in the future.

It's what I had but would be nice moving it around the shop unlocked

Same till it meets the front and narrows around the front link bars.
Rear is 34' center 34' front 28'

thanks i was thinking there had to be a reason.

 

[chaplinfj60]

and it still leaves enough room for exhaust and everything. thats good to hear.

Got the rear bumps mounted. I'm all mathed out and ready to move on.

And it's about that time!

Gotta burn some rivets and remove the hacked up floor rafters.

 

[pinchegringo]

Pretty gross as usual. Surprisingly rust free in the structural areas.

I built the frame same width as the A Pilar so the body just sat down on the frame.

Managed to frame the lower jam and ready to cut apart. I would brace it but it was built crooked so needs squared anyway.
