Now I am mounting the front grill mounts. I clamp a straight edge to the frame to be sure I am straight with the top of the axle and frame and then use a straight edge to make sure I am not at and off left or right.
See here I am checking to make sure its square to the axle. The hood mount holes are 11.5 inches center to center Frame is 13 wide so I went 3/4 of an inch from the side of frame and drew a line on the axle beam to know where to place the mounts.
Here you see both mount welded on and notice How I have drilled a hole stuck a bolt in and welded the head to the tube. Makes it easyier to remove the hood and grill simply spin the nut off top side don't need two wrenches to do it.
here you can see how it sit right over the bolts To secure it a couple fender washers and flannge nuts and done.
Here is the first view of the rolling chassis with the body work mounted. Using the hood and grill from the 04 chassis was my back up this year.
Here is another view of it. Tomorrow it will come out of the shop for the first time for a better photo and I need to clean up a bit before continuing on with it. Still have to fix the battery mount location and some tabs welded in dash area for upper grill support location, brakes motor and wiring then body work to paint it.
