RDD!
Long time coming and good to see your getting real close to enjoying the "whistle while you drive". Do I notice freshly painted frame rails in the first picture?
That new motor of yours looks...........NEW! Is it a fresh rebuild or NIB? Been awhile since you mentioned getting it and I'm too lazy to try and find the thread.
Congrats Jed now

the frame rails have fresh CARC as does the engine, light guards, frame extensions, drive shaft's, air filter housing and battery box.
The engine was a take out, it was spicergear's pre Cat engine(it's a 1989 herc LDT-465-1D) it only has like 400miles on it

400 miles is nothing, good score. The thing isn't even broke in. The time it has taken you this far really shows your attention to detail and making everything nice. Good job.

By the way gary that harbor freight paint guy you said to try work's very nicely it's almost as good as the $700 SATA I use at work.
and yes the reason it took so long is I make every thing as close to perfect as I can get it but peple pay me good money because of it.

Did you ever find the little piece that was missing from the side of your air compressor? I looked in all the TMs I have but none showed the single cylinder compressor...
