Ok Ryano and myself got into the chassis this weekend chopped it up put some extra in, hopefully get it to brads this weekend so he can check it out and weld it up soo prob wont be any work on it this weekend but the following weekend we should have the cab sitting on the chassis designing the new body mounts have the engine and gearbox sitting in a rough position

Is the body just "sitting" on the chassis in pics above or have you actually made the mounts and fitted it properly already?

Whats the ETA on project completion?

Getting much sleep with the new bub?

Yeah just sitting there at the moment waiting on the adapter plate ls1 to gq box so we can play with the height of the cab and hopefully drop the body by 25mm actual body mounts won't take long to fab up hopefully I can get this done by August
