63 unibody

anything that i'll have to ground will be a nut n bolt and i'll clean the metal on the inside of the wall. only things that will be mounted on the wall should be the ignition ballast resistor and the coil....i think

the mount up front is like stock, but i plated the front and back of it and then cut a opening in it for a wrench to fit in. now the bolt goes in from the bottom and the nut is on the inside of the mount ( page 10 has a pic of the new mounts)

Ok I have to ask what did you use for seam sealer around the bottom of the bbw addition to the cab ? I ask this as I will be doing the same thing to my uni and yours turned out nice and smooth which is what I want when I get mine to that point .

the inside and the outside part hidden under the trim are a 3m sealer. i'll have to look at the tube tonight for exact name and part number. we taped the lines and used a finger ( w/ rubber glove) to smooth out the bead. let it tack then pulled the tape.

the outside part of the b piller is mud.... rage gold to be exact.

Thanks that helps a bunch . I can get 3M products from my supplier as well as the rage gold mud .

thanx guys. havent touched her (other than blocking her down for final sealer), bought a new driver and getting it ready for paint. needed a 2nd family hauler and this was a good deal that the wife approved of
once its back from the paint shop ill get back on my unibody along with a few side jobs that are coming in this winter

2003 supercrew, 65k miles bagged on 22s.

Nice crew cab...I kinda like that Lincoln front end, obviously you weren't fond of it

[dragginwagon]

thanx, i was indifferent on the frontend.... but i got the truck knowing the front end needed love, the conversion fenders were cracking and pretty wavy ( fiber glass) they took a decent picture but in person werent all that great.
i was able to pick up everything to swap it back stock for lil over 200 bux so i felt like that was the "easier" route and instead of blending the paint we're just gunna reshoot the whole truck. has a few blems here and there from driving and all.

[dragginwagon]

super crew has been done for a while now... havent posted in a while




unibody is on the back burner again....once i finish this side job i'll be back on it, hopefully no more distractions till she's running and interior painted.
