I assume that it is safe to say that you are in the body business eh? That can't be your "hobby shop"!

Looks like high quality craftmanship to me . I like the liner!

 

That looks awesome.. can't wait to see it all together

 

x2 I'm drooling over your shop... Going to put my crew build to shame that is for sure.

 

Thanks guys , it is actually is my hobby shop . I really don't like to do body work but don't want to pay some one else to do a half edit job,
For work I remodel houses. built the shop two years ago and its bigger than my house @ 2100sqf

 

Looks great! Im jealous.

 

x2 on this ^^ looking good

 

Sigh more diesel **** .... YES I will say Awesome Job!!!! and Keep us up to date

 

Diesel ****?

 

Awesome pictures

 

maybe next summer i will stop by for a visit . wanting to see my elderly relatives in langley.

 

for sure shoot me a message when your heading up .

 

jonny5 i am going to do the same thing. I have an 85 just like yours but i already put a 5.9 in the truck. I purchased a 92 d-250 with fairly low miles but has all the bells and whistle's plus the wiring is straight which is not straight in my original conversion. My question for you is how did you handle the rear cab mount for the cc. The mount for the x-tended cab will not match the cc rear mount. Pictures would be helpful. Thanks Augie

 

Not to hijack Johny5's post, but Augie. I took a 93 extended cab 4x4 and am grafting on the crew cab body. I moved the mounts back on extended cab frame to accomodate the crew cab; I also had to rejig the floor of the truck to accomodate the frame rails of the extended cab and notched out the back of the cab to make sure the fuel tank cleared.

Send me an email at rmiss@shaw.ca and I will send you some pics on what I did.

 

Looks great!!

 

Hey guys thanks . Im using the crew cab frame .
The only part that i had trouble with was the cross member that held the steady bearing( both trucks are standards and similar wheel base).
I was able to flip the cross member over and move it back as far as i could then made up a flat plate to hold the steady bearing.(no drive shaft cutting)
I did want to use the diesel tank but it was going to be too much work , i will loose the low fuel light by using the CC tank
