WHEW! There we go, got a little rusty. Here is another view of the rough install. I will put a skid plate on it and some above the frame retention areas, but should be a great addition!

Got the fuel tank fitted up, and thanks to Eric from Windsor with his 70 F250 4x4, that I assist with, he has given me an extra DANA 60 from a 76 F250 which I can install in my truck so the from DANA 44 with disc brakes will line up with the rear wheel now. Look for that install soon!

I pulled the old headliner out, and the metal is in great shape!

Great progress! I was wondering how your project was coming along. The cab looks pretty clean inside.

That will save a lot of time and make things a little easier on your restoration. I was wondering what the metal tab was that is next to your steering box, that protrudes out above the frame rail?
