I had been putting this off for a while but when the fuel pump died last week I had no more time to wait.
The bed was stuck on pretty good, 18" ratcheting breaker made short work of it.
Look how awful it was.
Big truck's getting some use during the break.
Powerwashed, wire wheeled, primed and sprayed a gallon of rubber undercoat on the frame and under the bed.
Removed the rubber rear brake line and replaced it with stainless, installed new shocks, deleted spare tire mount and painted everything everything everything. Pics to come.
Also swapping the front lines to stainless and new 2500 calipers and replacing the ancient fuel filter that has seized to the line. Also pulling the truetrac and gonna made an adjustment to backlash w some new bearings. Also have to rebuild the fuel pump obviously. If I have a little energy left I'll do the 4hi headlights.
EDIT - Also here is the original big build on it http://www.gmt400.com/forum/showthr...ank-etc-quot-Ricer-quot-build-thread&p=244917
