Just up at the shop where my guy is working on the install of the new front clip. Seems someone in the past...for what EVER reason welded or bondo'd all the fenders to the body so they cannot be removed which makes the IFS install MUCH more difficult=more expensive. Also found that the steering box was/is only held on by one bolt and it was almost falling off...only one turn of the thread holding it on.

I'm scared to death of what else might turn up but I'm guessing all you guys find nightmarish stuff when you dig into it. wink

He said, and I agreed, he wants to go over the entire truck after the IFS is done to make sure it's right and safe.... Heck yes... !

No wonder I was wandering all over the road...
