This arrived yesterday afternoon. I've been waiting on it since October. When I get the Cruiser going, I'm going to get some good trail pics.

Got my cab really dirty with my pup. Early goose season here in Colorado had us on the lake with some buds, working on the duck blinds and hoping for some geese to fly over. They didn't show up until after shooting light, but we had a helluva time.

That' what I'm talk'n bout! Exactly what a 40 needs to used for.
 
Finally getting around to knobbing again...

Vader lights too!

Laid down some primer on @tugcapt1 ’s tub. @White Stripe I was going to leave the stripe as a ghost but it disappeared under the primer.

The end goal of this truck is function over form. More of a sturdy country girl that can split firewood than a beauty queen.

Nice! Was the floor tough to fix at the a pillar?

I welded in a 16ga extension, it’s not pretty but will get the job done. The toughest part was the drivers side rocker at the A pillar. The early cowl was narrower and I had to suck the rocker in. It’ll get some steel protection so it’s not a huge deal. We scraped the bottom and hit it with some undercoating.

That looks great! Glad it's being put to good use. I tried to not butcher it too much. If he keeps it out of the salt it'll last a long time. It's a pretty decent tub for what it is. I could have fixed it and kept using it but I just really wanted aluminum.
 
Tire rotation day...... worked too hard restoring my wheels to trust Discount Tire with ‘em (I can’t be the only one?) 😂

Started to set up the LS3/ NV4500 and Atlas.

I'm right at 4 degrees and want 3 degrees for this setup.

Will be swapping out the Advanced Adapters motor mounts since they are 3" wider than the inner frame dimensions and will cause an adverse pinion angle issue as well.
