Got my new gas tank undercoated today that I ordered. Also have a new steering box on the way.
I cut out the rear section of the frame that began to rot. I am using part of the old s10 frame to replace it with. So I got everything pretty much to the point to weld it.
your directional problem is prolly due to the multi func in the column bein diff on the 2 systems . bein that the directional switch cancels the brake light out a side when brakes are on . long confusing story short lolol . look into that as i bet the problem is there
I got the rear frame all done and welded up. Mounted my new gas tank and lines.
I cut down the bed today. I took 15" out and plan to weld the front part of the bed back on. I am also relocting the gas door to the passanger side.
I slid the bed on and spaced it up so the body lines line up. The bed will have to have 4" spacers to raise it up enough. I am still debating if I want to section the rear half of the bed, it looks kinda weird longer in the back.
Front part to be welded on (fills the gap)
I just have to mount my bumpers, make my floor shifters for the trans/ 4wd, finish up the dash and gauges, and fix up a new exhaust.
Sectioned in the bed and began to tack it up. Have a few little things to finish up and thats it. The main thing being the shift linkage for the auto trans.
The bed still sits about a 1" lower then the cab. I really dont care, I already have 4 1/2" spacers raising the bed off the frame.
