@@jimkienholz9905 thanks bro! Lots more vids since then - check em out if you can!

@@intheshoptvwill do! I love your attention to detail. I don’t have a hot rod but I am researching battery relocation and you have some great idea that others don’t.

@@jimkienholz9905 thats awesome to hear man! The video after this one on grounding has some really good stuff that will be useful for your project. Good luck! Let me know if I can help

@@79_Trucker I’m thinking of leaving the A-pillar drains open (even opening them up a bit more as they have a little rot). What are you planning for yours?

@@intheshoptv the same that lower part of the drain they just get beat up and hashed.

@@cameronadams8405 thank you! Good luck with your project

@@larryfonseca5217 thank you!

Thanks bud I appreciate that. Ugh I really hate body work but I have to at least get it decent so that I can assemble and drive the truck, until I can get it to a paint and body guy that’s a true artist.

@@N8z14 that, and fresh air for the kick panel vents (which I also plan to delete/turn into speaker cavity.)

@@intheshoptv I'm thinking about looking into possibly using some stainless steel wool and fitting it in the drain openings. Breathable, rodent and bug resistant, and won't rust. Your thoughts..? Rgds, Dan G. Clovis, CA. 56' custom Cab build

@@dangonchoroff8413 funny, I just asked in a fb group, for opinions on whether I should leave mine open or close them up. Im leaning towards open as SOME water, even if condensation is still likely to get in there. The stainless wool is a cool idea, not sure what Im going to do yet honestly but I like where you’re going. I even thought about closing them and just adding a small fitting and drain tubing 🤷🏻‍♂️

@@falcon6936 thank you!!

@@VinceT2940 Thank you brother. Just came back from L&B by the way 😉Brought back two quarts of spumoni lol.

@@intheshoptv I'll be there in the fall !

@@VinceT2940 enjoy!

@@user-gd1wl8yd5j its so bad. Some companies doors arent even worth it. Better off with a rotted out original unfortunately

Thats a great question! Im debating that right now actually. On one hand leaving them open is easy and God forbid any moisture gets in, it can still escape. But closing them off, prevents rodents, road moisture and dirt from getting in… not sure yet.

Right? Wish it fit better out of the box but it is what it is.

Hey! So you want the crossmember to be welded in dead-on straight. The geometry of the spindle accounts for the canted angle of the upper control arms. Hope that makes sense.

@@intheshoptv so my kit it's from TCI it's kind of all purpose and I can't find the measurement of the bottom a-arm hole to the the bottom of the frame I've been looking all morning and last night also my kit is a little different it doesn't come with the hat it comes with the tilted A arm bracket for coilovers

I really appreciate you replying I guess what I'm trying to ask the bottom a arm stays perfectly horizontal and the top A arm bracket I've read I need to make it 3° what's confusing me as I've watched a million videos and everyone I've been watching it looks like they put 3° on the bottom A arm bracket as well

@@tuckerc3802 I can say with almost 100% certainty that my lower arms are completely squared and level to the bottom of the crossmember (which is also level). Doesnt your kit come pre-drilled for the A-arm bolts?

I did? Oh its simple, you tom the cables, insert in terminal and clamp down.

It’s been flawless. I have a discount code and link available if you click the video description.

Thank you. Good luck with your project!

Here’s one we did recently, installing a catch can on these valve covers. Oil Catch Cans: 101 - EVERYTHING you NEED to Know! ua-cam.com/video/wX42ANVfbxE/v-deo.html

Thanks! I do, here ya go: amzn.to/4eKWXq5

Thank you! I was looking at some of your products just now. Do you make a rolling/sliding/bridge jack for 4 post lifts?

First time I ever tried it, yes. Learned you have to stay real steady, and not go too fast, then they dont break.

@@intheshoptv I’ve also learned that center of the rivet head doesn’t always mean center of the hole. 4wd swap has been quite the learning curve today lol.

@@jacobray6655 very true!!

I narrowed it 3” and its hub to hub width is now 56.5”. Im running 20x10 wheels, with 285/30/20 tires. There is definitely room to go wider should one want to. I have quite a few videos on it, if you click my channel name.

Its really just a matter of providing the racks required amount of pressure. That said, I don’t see any reason why you couldn’t use whatever pump you want, so long as it flows within those parameters 👍

@@intheshoptv Thanks!

It should be based on your total loaded weight (a close approximation will suffice). Reason being, retailers like to throw out general numbers - the second you speak the word “truck”, they’re pushing a 700lb spring (which is WAYYYY) too stiff for these little lightweight trucks)

@@intheshoptv Thanks!

New 55’ video out next!

New video for the truck in the works! Thanks man, appreciate the kind words. How’s your ride coming?

Thanks for the kind words and congratulations! Yes, I used to go to work with my old man every day during the summer. He wasn’t in the automotive field, but the place he worked had a massive fleet of trucks, equipment and cars. He would be off in the field and leave me in the building and I ended up gravitating towards the repair shop and those guy took me under their wing and put me to work. (This was when people didn’t care about labor laws and such). Learned so much. He’s not as interested as I was but as long as he learns how to take care of basics, im content!

🔥👍

Hey! Thank you! So I just went through making the injectors fit properly. There are several different o-rings. You need to find the ones that fit your intake/rails. Here’s the intake video about it: Fabricated Sheet Metal Intake Manifolds - Should YOU Get One? ua-cam.com/video/ko7hYBJtKQw/v-deo.html

Very cool! Ive since gotten the whole system wired up. Check it out: ua-cam.com/play/PLS6i13ij_WMmwcpofnsWqjymNiubw9MWG.html&si=qTUPKAirNsC4r3nG

Yep - I used the farm implement stuff on the frame. Anything I do paint-wise to this vehicle (including the entire body) will be a temporary paint job to get me driving and saving. I have a painter/body person that will get this truck to paint eventually

Thats sucks! Hope you get it sorted out. Try looking again, there is usually always some differentiating marks, patterns or even wear marks on the bearing/cap mating surface

I wasn’t sure either! I just knew I didn’t want to weld up 1000 holes and I wanted the smoothed look. Planned to weld the whole panel in, but decided to try this for future viewers that might not be able to weld. Yes! Im planning a firewall booster. I dont have it yet, but I “think” it can - I guess it depends on if you can fit a drill in the confines of that interior bracket. We’ll see soon

Ugh tell me about it, I enjoy welding and fabrication but that frame and suspension drained me for a while lol. What era s10 do you have?

@@intheshoptv It's my friends S-10 which is a 1986 I believe. Smoothing the firewall, 427 LS dyno'd at 740 horsepower, upgraded transmission, back halfing the truck to fit 12 inch rims, complete rewire and it goes on. As soon as we are done with his truck we are going to start on my '66 Lincoln with basically the same engine but a little less power and a Tremec 5 speed because I want to be a little different. It's already bagged on a suspension I made myself 10 years ago but I have a new, updated suspension kit from Murray Custom Rides that's way stronger than what I made. Also new Wilwood big brake kit from Little Shop Customs. My buddy and I were working on his truck in his basement but I told him to bring it over because I have a lift and lots more room. While we work on his it gives me time to save money for my engine. He already has all of the parts except for the back half kit, we were waiting on rims and tires so we could figure out the width of his axle. Sounds exciting and complicated but neither of us has back halted a truck or performed an LS swap although we have extensive knowledge of cars and welding so we are confident of our success. 15 hours this weekend and the fire wall isn't done yet so we have a ways to go!! I've been watching your channel since the shop was built, keep up the good work.

You’re welcome. I hear ya… done plenty of that. I don’t know why I waited so long to get the tool

Thanks!! Ive seen those along with inner fenders for the C10’s! I haven’t seen them for these trucks though. Wonder if they exist?

Absolutely love it.

Building the entire thing from the ground up - literally every bolt, nut, screw and wire. Lots of videos on this build and tons more. Thanks for watching!

Great question!! I’m 1/2 way through filming the next episode that will show it finished - that’s one of the topics I’ll address. It’ll be out this Friday!

Thanks. I appreciate that

Its just a cruiser. Besides I finished this rear long ago: ua-cam.com/users/shortsI6Jil13KV70?si=KsXleyBhie6fmzbY

Always! Good luck.

Thank you!

I hope the channel continues to grow, man.

Thanks hoping to get it done in the next video. Your project sounds cool

Thank! Ha! I never really looked at it from that angle but thats a great point lol

Thanks man. Im excited about this project. Yeah she’s awesome - that 75’ vette sitting in the corner is hers and she’s been VERY patient lol

@@intheshoptv I see she’s representing the “colors” with that shirt she’s got on lol. Nicely done Mrs In the shop tv! Lol

@@truvuehomeinspections2397 She sure is!

Thank you sir! Ah man, hope you feel better quickly! The RC car sounds cool.

@@intheshoptv Thank you sir

Thank you! Yep, we’re going to add a little bit of cool to his stang’!

Thank you for watching!
