So it's not going to be a Cab OVER Engine anymore. But I suppose if you did do that the cab would be a LOT higher than it was on the old chassis. You were talking in another thread about framing around the engine on the cab floor. Did the engine width make that not doable? I assume that mid engine location is going to be a lot lower than shown in your third pic. Unless you're talking a V-drive like a boat would use.
Alaska Rubber could fab longer hoses for you, especially for the power steering. Probably a hydraulic shop in Homer as well. You'd probably need to bring your wheelbarrow of cash along. eek Steel tubing could be used for the tranny cooler lines, probably the PS lines as well.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.
