Quick update before and after

Before on 42" with SOA

Now on 49" with the SOA and a 1¼" cab lift.

Yes i know that the engine is not there but it wont make much difference. Also have to install the airbags to get a smoother ride ( 2" extra lift )

That's just awsome looking

Looking good. Guess I am gonna need to replace the "puny" 42s I have now.

This build is definitely one of the best ones on this site IMO. Keep it up and the pics coming.

Hey THANKS for your comments.

This morning i went to PA to get some parts that were missing for the puzzle ...

The 3053A tranny with the SAE adapter in case i needed it.
Also get the complete clutch to move the truck before fitting a real one in there.
A set of air tank with the hardware
Air horn
another 14.00 XL for spare.

Will update with better pics tomorrow

BTW ... some pics of the Canadien War Museum. I was very impressed that they even had a jet plane in the garage.

I will ask also in the appropriate section about that but maybe can help me on this one. At the back under the output shaft of the tranny , there's something with treads --) can someone help me to identify the part and if need to plug something in there or not. Thanks and sorry for the crappy picture

You do nice (and fast) work!

The air tank idea is exactly what I had in mind for my 715 when I get around to the onboard air system. Glad to see the tanks fit well.
