Builds My Tucson 40's (2 Viewers)

[JackA]

Everything electrical is working, except the wipers cause they are not installed and the emergency flashers....one light flashes.
Still chasing a few leaks too.....

Did you check the inline fuse for the flashers?

 

[JackA]

I have not started to diagnose / fix issues yet. I am just trying to get the rig together. Then I will focus on making everything work.

Got the driveshafts all cleaned up. Working on the hood and it's fixings now.

So SOR sells an OEM style top? Wow. Had no idea.

 

[JackA]

Hopefully you can see it tomorrow......

Wicked thunderstorm rolled thru tonight. Got 1 to 2 inches easily. Now it's like a sauna.

It looks like the cactus has its fingers crossed.

Driveshafts are bolted in.

I buffed out the hood then installed all the hood goodies.
I am also getting the running boards all clean and painted.

 

[JackA]

Loosely installed the top. Not so easy with 1 person. I am done.....tired of sweating so much.

 

[JackA]

Running boards all finished up. Yes, it's not the white pyramid vinyl that would be original style. I heard that's out of stock. I used some black rubber stuff I sourced locally. I think it looks good.

Esp. with that top

Been wrapping up loose ends. It's headed to the exhaust shop tomorrow.......on the trailer unfortunately.
Spruced up the steering wheel and horn button.

 

[JackA]

All loaded up and ready for the exhaust shop.

Exhaust turned out pretty good. Not sure how it sounds yet though.

Will it clear the skid plate?

 

[JackA]

It should. Otherwise, I will make it fit. I am not sure if I have one laying around or not. The original was mia when I got this truck.

 

[wngrog]

I’ve got a few if you want one.

Crazy as Kit sounds the early F exhaust ran under the skid plate

Really is that possible. LOL bought a few minus the skid plate over the years.

This is my 10/75 stock exhaust like it left the factory. Cruiser only has 4,502.

7 miles on it.

 

[wngrog]

Yep

 

[JackA]

I like to run the exhaust above the skid plate, so it cannot get crushed off road. Everyone I have built is this way. Works fine.
