Houston, Yes my truck is running & not only have I never done a frame off restro. before, I've never owned a car. This is my fist vehicle. I dont have the skills or space to take apart the body on my own, so in the meantime I'll move on to oher things and areas where the truck needs some love. Maybe some ZR will do the trick for the time being. Thanks for all the info. as usual guys.
