Same way I did it. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

Nice work on the pump bracket. When I converted my '84 pickup to efi I went with a new tank (made in Canada), but my 4runner donor vehicle had a different pump bracket to match the differently shaped tank. I had to pay around $112.00 for the new bracket, but they use the same pumps so nothing extra for that. I was worried about the tank and corrosion, but it seems that they finished mine with some kind of plating that is similar to galvanizing. I coated the thing with spray-on rubberized undercoating for an extra measure of protection. I'm pretty sure it's gonna outlive my truck. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/notooth.gif" alt="" /> -- Matt

Gas eats rubber undercoat pretty quick, so watch for fuel leaks.

so frame is stripped again , and going for the final welding , and POR-15 treatment .



to today , I got the frame ALL welded ..

topside ...


and bottom side ..


rolled it out side , and got the washing ... drying ... degreasing, rincing .. degreasing .. rincing .. and washing again ..
and now I think im good to go ..







dragged it back in .. and did the "metal ready"



just another rince and dry tomorrow , and its ready for the POR -15 ..



.

got the frame done today using my "gun" and a small paint brush ..
2 wands .. first is a rotating 360* "V" notch . Second is a 90* rotating .



I'm VERY happy with the way it came out ..
















.

got another little surprise today ..

I sent the flywheel out for resurfacing .. and just got it back ...




when the UPS man shows up with my new F1 Racing stage 1 "organic" clutch .. it's rated for 280HP .. so with the supercharger , it should be good .



.

so started putting it all back together ..



all new hardware , or cleaned and zinc'd




also got my shocks today ..



so had to get them installed .. loosly .










.

That is one cleeeeeeean build. Looks great, i'd love to do a frame up build someday. I think a t-case e-brake may have saved some time and maybe headaches as well dealing with the discs on the rear. Love the build and great work. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

thanks ..

I'm not one to "buy off the shelf" .. I like to be just a little different , and with all the rear discs out there , I just wanted to show something different . I'm glad I did the emergancy brake the way I did , It's a "1 off " .. and will work for years to come .

Very understandable, I like to build my parts as well.
