Very nice and glad to hear the cab is really close! Your shock links and mounts are nicer than most people's suspensions. :LOL:

Yup! Ryan is right on target. Your detail to work is right up there with the best of them! And no melodrama involved! ;)
Looking good Steve, I'm just getting caught up after being without net for a couple months, you're making some nice progress
Not much to post as got chassis in epoxy primer and it's taking a while to flat back ready for paint but I've done a few bits
first made up a brass adjuster for generator/alternator

Got my column back from powder coater, it's all stainless with Torrington races, originally had polished it but decided satin black was more suited and classy

That's going to look great Steve!
Well my replacement main leaves for my front springs arrived from jones. Springs today, only took them 3 days, good company to deal with. They had to be shortened 3'' at the front to bring the shackle inside the front panel, they also made me up a couple of extra intermediate leaves so I can fine tune the front springs

The workshop is now sheeted up ready to paint the chassis, as usual got let down by a mate so my old mate Allan has stepped forward and took a day off on Tuesday to paint it for me, thanks Allan.
funny how mates always turn up when your doing something for them !!! One for the memory bank I think

Okay, I realize I have been out of the sales industry for a few years now and when I was, one of our main product lines was 3M ( Minnesota Mining & Manufacturing ) so I have to ask, is there a fourth "M" added to their name or is that another supplier who is playing on 3M's reputation with the drop sheet ?
