    I shifted the crossmember back 150mm used some 3x5/16"flat bar welded at an angle on the front edge then bent perpendicular to pick up the body and seat belt points worked out well .Gives enough room to remove TC

    Make the x member boltable, and do away with that earlier clutch slave. The later one is a lot slimmer and does not have that 'lump' sticking out! You will also have to upgrade you're clutch master from the std 3/4" cyl to 1". Ser 3 Brake Cyl is the go!

    I take it there are plenty of those DAF trucks to get the Cummins from.

    Ok lads, heres a look at the last few weeks worth of work!!

    so the chassis went from this:



    To this!!!:





    Really happy with the result and definitely worth the effort and time that went in to repairing it!

    Also got a delivery the same day o got the chassis back (was like christmas!!)



    So that evening the axles went under it:



    Next day i spotted the crack in the gearbox so that tore the arse out of putting the engine and gearbox in that day, so gearbox went in this morning after a bit of welding, along with the t/box (temporarily):



    Then cleaned the gearbox, shock turrets, tank and a few other bits up and gave em a lick of paint!:











    Amazing what a lick of paint does!

    Heres a look at the clearance for the handbrake drum, not ideal for removal, but if it becomes an issue ill look at getting an x/brake or making something similar!:



    Thats all for now! forgot to take pictures of the paint i bought for it, tempted to keep it a surprise though :P

    Anyways lads heres a look at the work this weeks work!

    First up was to do the brake lines:

















    Then had a look at the intercooler and rad setup, going to be tight, but it'll work!:

    The scale of this build is Mental. You are mental. That rig will be mental. It is a crime not to take that bad boy off road. I am dead set sitting in my computer chair basking in the glory of that 110.

    You, sir are creating one of the greatest frankensteins monsters Ive seen on this forum. Cant wait to read more!
