Projects New Project 32 Pickup

Nice!

 

Great start. I'm driving my 5th deuce truck.

 

Very nice! What kind of bracket did you make to lift the body with the engine hoist?

 

Looks much happier...I'm sure you are too!! That was fast...

Spring is gonna be pretty special this year...

 

Good looking truck!

 

Notice the big 4x4 beam up against the top of the door areas.

 

I can see the 4x4 I was referring to the metal bracket and how it's attached to the hoist.

 

Use the chain bolt hole attach 6 inch metal strips on each side of hoist connecting to a pivot point on 4x4 bracket

 

If you could you take a pic of the setup without the cab and share, that would bolster the explanation quite nicely...

 

I'm sure it was carefully balanced before lifting very high.

 

Made a long U channel from 2x6s and a 2x4 with all thread bolts it to hoist arm at chain hole to pivot. Rachet strap to secure it. Worked well for a one man show. Many times actually.
