Sat the front end under this chassis tonight will set up the quick change with the diff we are using this weekend and sit that in there ready to mount up all we need to fit front end is some new perch bolts and different spring as the 40 ford ones sit in front of the i beam.

 

Cool - looking forward to the build - need some pics though.

Can't believe I missed this one, that is a sweet little mill in that thing!
looks like you are putting together a very nice pickup, both of them are nice!
