This is just a tease. The actual work will begin in January 2020.
Had the Ppump 4BT for several years, finely got around to the initial start up, it lives!


Pulling the gas motor, the real work begins
Class 3 hitch fab
Start up after priming
Sick Cummins?
Engine cleanup after inframe rebuild

Condenser is in. Test routed the output to the drier.

The good news, new stock height springs are in along with the 2.5" lift blocks. This combo raised the rear 3/8" over the worn out factory springs with the blocks
But at full drop the drivers side parking brake cable is stretched, the passenger side is OK.
The plan is to mill .25" off the block and put in the desired angle on the pinion for the CV drive shaft.
With a shorter block and the angel that might give enough slack for the parking brake cable.

Milled 6 degree taper off the top of the block, it worked!
