I'm getting there :happy: Been busy trying to get my truck at least movable. Installed me aftermarket Lift Pump this morning along my frame so at least that is done now.

 

Was talking to my Napa store this morning and they said the master cylinder should be here today around 1 (haven't checked yet) but the Hydrobooster isn't available :ermm: So I re-installed my Hydrobooster and hopefully I'll get my MC today on my way to work, get the MC installed tomorrow and start on the box again!

Well I got the truck back on the road, brakes are working good now. Ended up replacing just the Master Cylinder as well as my main brake line from the front of the truck to the rear axle (about 12' long). I did have the frame cleaned up, hit it with a few coats of rust primer, then a thin coat of black paint for now. But it's all dirty since it rained yesterday and I live on a gravel road :laugh:

 

But anyways, took a few pictures of the box as it sits right now, and my new Lift Pump and Skid Plate I made up.

 

Underside: Rust sanded down, Entire underside primed, painted and a thin coat of rock guard.

 

Front: Little bits of rust sanded down, sanded the entire front down (help the primer out). Laid down about 5 coats of primer, then about 4 coats of the silver paint I will be using.

 

Passenger Side: Rust sanded down, then sanded the entire side (again for the primer). About 3 coats of primer on there so far so not done yet.

 

New Lift Pump: Run fuel line from the Fuel Filter Housing, down along the frame to the pump, then from the pump to the fuel tank. Made up a skid plate a few days later to bolt up underneath the pump as well.
