Projects Model A Truck, Banger and a T5 "Build Thread"

Nice work, this pickup will be on the road in no time.

 

That steering box mount looks great! Glad to see you back at it. Glad you are feeling better

Before I head to the brakes, I wanted to finish the steering mount...

The top clamp was fairly straight forward. I first did the bottom side and then flipped it over for the top side. I am always amazed with what you can do with a 1/2" ball endmill, a couple thousand lines of cnc code and a bunch of time...good thing I am only making one.


As the second side was machining, I had the feed turned up a little too high and it lifted the part out of the vise making that large divot. Instead of making another one, a little welding and grinding fixed it right up.
