Sorry for no real progress! Just finished my bike up for the most part and will be starting on the Fummins soon.
I've decided to convert the truck to 10 lug and run 22.5's with low-pro 36's.
Scored a deal on the new powdercoated wheels and brand new tires through a buddy ($1500) and bought the 10 lug adapters from an old racer/machinist from Southern California for around $800. Scored another deal on the steel dually adapters for the rear end for $200, then exchanging my SRW front hubs for a set of dually's for the cost of the new bearings and grease.
A new flatbed and possibly boxing the entire frame is in the works. Also picked up an ARB bumper for the front for $300 from a friend.
Wheelin' and dealin' baby!

Are you kidding? The engine is very far forward of the fire wall exactly for this reason. You can change the rear freeze plug if you wanted to.

Number 5 cylinder is cake to get to on mine, number 6 we used a hydraulic device to lift up the firewall slightly and got the rocker assembly off and valve spring puller on.
